NIGERIA’S Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, has given insights into the priorities of the Muhammadu Buhari administration.
Osinabjo disclosed this in an interview with SaharaTV.
He said the administration’s focus would be on “security, corruption, and the economy”.
According to him, the administration would take security seriously and added that the concerns concerning the Niger Delta are important.
He stated that the administration would be at “the forefront of addressing issues affecting all ethnic minorities and tensions.”
On the economy and corruption, Osinbajo addressed several issues including the fuel scarcity, and the missing $20 billion from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
On fuel subsidies, Osinbajo stated that the administration is currently “undecided about the implementation of subsidies and would soon respond to the downstream sector.”
He also stated that he wanted to see a disciplined government and address voter concerns about the huge cost of government, adding that Buhari would certainly address the $20 billion allegedly missing in the Nigerian Treasury.
On the religion and politics, Osinbajo stated that Biblically, God has always been interested in leadership and tried to appoint good leaders for the Israelites.
Going personal, Osinbajo said that on a good night with his wife he would prefer a stroll on the beach to a movie.
He also said he strongly prefers taking ice cream to cake, adding that he liked to wear native clothing and is extremely comfortable wearing a kaftan and trousers.
He affirmed his status as a politician and a family man, saying that reading and playing with children were his favourite hobbies.
