By BASHIR ADEFAKA
The immediate past Vice President of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN), has reaffirmed his commitment to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), even as he expresses his regrets for his inability to attend the caucus meeting of the party scheduled for Wednesday 2nd August 2023.
In a letter of apology addressed to the Acting Chairman of the Party, the former VP explained that he was already abroad for engagements to which he had long been committed when he received the invitation to the meeting.
According to a statement to The DEFENDER by Media Office of Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, GCON Vice President (2015 – 2023) dated 2nd August 2023, “He had in fact cancelled some of his engagements abroad to be available for the two previously scheduled caucus meetings of the Party which had to be postponed due to exigencies.
“While wishing the APC fruitful deliberations, he expressed his fidelity to the Party and his availability for future meetings and activities,” the statement said.
Wednesday’s statement corroborated an earlier information from a source very close to the former Vice President, who said the Buhari’s administration number-two man was abroad.
