Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has revealed that President Muhammadu Buhari treats him as one of his sons.
According to Laolu Akande, spokesman of the vice-president, Osinbajo said this on Thursday during his visit to Katsina state for the launch of the micro small and medium enterprises (MSME) clinic in the state.
Shortly after his arrival in the state, the acting president proceeded to the palace of Abdulmumini Usman, emir of Katsina.
“In fact, the president has taken me as a son in the way he treats me,” Akande quoted Osinbajo as saying.

“I feel very much at home in Katsina. Moreso because this is the state of the president who has taken me as a brother.
“The amount of responsibilities President Buhari has given me shows he seriously believes we can live together as brothers.
“I pray the Lord will preserve our president to continue to lead as the nation has voted him to do. He seriously believes in Nigerian unity.”

Dear Laolu,
How are you?
Thank you for the job you are doing.I understand your message. Nevertheless, allow me to voice a little discomfort. We are in a democracy and not a monarchy. Your principal ran on a joint ticket. Therefore we don’t need him to be treated as a brother or son only but also be respected as a partner.
Thank you
Your compatriot
Ibrahim
