Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has stated that Nigerians have
all it takes to make the country great.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Senior
Special Assistant to the Vice President on Media Publicity, Laolu Akande, on
Tuesday.
According to the statement, Osinbajo made the assertion at
the public presentation of a book titled ‘Politics that Works – What Schools
and Seminars won’t Teach You about Winning Elections’, co-authored by Babafemi
Ojudu and Alex James.
The statement titled ‘Osinbajo to Nigerians: Don’t give up,
our challenges have solutions’, the vice president noted that Nigerians should
come together to solve the challenges facing the nation.
Osinbajo was quoted as saying, “Our generational challenges
have the generational solutions, let’s just face the issues and solve them,
whether we are in government or planning to get into government.
“We mustn’t give up
and we mustn’t keep looking back. The challenges of today are meant for those
of us who are here and alive today. And they are meant to be solved by young
people, and as I always say, there is no better time to be alive.
This is the best time in Nigeria to be young. Those who are
young today have the best opportunity ever.”
“I think this country needs the best minds. If you look at
the variety of talents that we have.
We have everything that it takes for a great country but it
is the coming together of like minds, coming together of people who agree on
the same things, old or young.
“I don’t think we should divide ourselves along these lines because this country can be great but we need that coming together of the best minds whether male or female.”
