A group, Osinbajo Grassroot Organisation, says it has uncovered a plot by some people to defame the character of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.

The group alleged that some political jobbers led by the House of Representatives members have come together with an agenda to defame Osinbajo so that they can give their candidate an edge.

In a statement on Wednesday, National Convener of the group, Ojo Sylvanus Foluso, said they have seen and have been privy to some of these plans in the past, adding that they have chosen to ignore the lawmaker and his co-travelers.

“Let them put their qualifications before the people. Let them come up with a well-articulated program and agenda to consolidate President Muhammadu Buhari’s legacy and move the country to another level.

“We, therefore, want to sound a note of warning for the jobbers that if they attack Osinbajo, we may be pushed to go after their principal as well. We, however, do not believe in the politics of mudslinging.

“For the fact that they think this Osinbajo is their only obstacle to power we shall heighten our pressure on him to harken to our call and enter the ring.”

Osinbajo is as qualified as any other Nigerian and his right is guaranteed under the law of this country to seek the highest office. We are not practicing monarchy whereby someone can be said not to have blue blood. The qualification for the office is very clear and Osinbajo has this in abundance and it cannot be questioned, doubted and rubbished.

“This is specifically why he is most qualified at this time to assume the position of leadership in Nigeria after another man of integrity has completed his term. He is just, he is reliable, he is not greedy and he will not convert the commonwealth of Nigeria to his own and that of his family.

“Osinbajo is “pure as crystal, gentle as a lamb, brave as a lion and chivalrous to a fault and the most perfect man in the political field” to borrow the words of Mahatma Gandhi in his description of his mentor Gopal Krishna Gokhale.

“So we call on you the hatchet man to sheath your sword so that you don’t bring opprobrium on whoever you may be working for. A word is enough for the wise.”
