According to Daily Trust, the vice president gave the advice while speaking at the inaugural conference of APC Professional Forum themed “The Role of Professionals in Politics and National Building” held at the Old Banquet Hall of the State House, Abuja, on Monday.

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has advised Nigerians to reject politicians trying to use “sectional sentiments” to take power.He said professionals who are politicians must stand out as people acquainted with an assessment based on their achievements and used to making competence as the first means of showcasing their acumen.

He said there was no point to have professionals in politics if they were driven by ethnic, religious and other parochial considerations, stressing that “the whole point of professionalism is that you are defined by merit, you are defined by your professional acumen.” He said, “Let me conclude with the following thoughts for further consideration. The usefulness of professionals in politics is that you have people who are used to being assessed on the basis of their own achievements, who are unafraid to make competence the first advertorial of their acumen. In other words, professionals emphasise the role of merit in public life.

“And I just emphasise that there is no point having professionals in politics if these professionals are driven by ethnic, religious and other parochial considerations because the whole point of professionalism is that you are defined by merit, you are defined by your professional acumen. “Nobody would place their lives in the hands of an incompetent doctor because they share the same faith or continue to patronize a dangerously inept mechanic because they belong to the same tribe. If someone told me, for example, that the pilot who is to fly the plane that I’m to go in is not a very good pilot, but he’s from Ikenne, my hometown, I certainly won’t go in that plane.

What makes him professional?

This is what I know about him...he is a nationalist

For all the killings and the promotion of sectional above national interest that is at its peak in Nigeria under the government that you are second in command, you and your ethnic champion Oga in Lagos stand rejected by men and God.

In other words not a Buhari type President

Osibanjo is trading and using his words carefully, you never tell a king that he is guilty,when a basket is used in proverb, those who are thin and tiny will evaluate and comprehend

Nigeria up President Almighty God will see you through 🙏🙏🙏

Osibanjo wake up. So u get this for ur head and u dey work with ur current principal

When you resigned from pastor work to join politics, what were you thinking? You can not patch a broken bottle. You and your party have destroyed Nigeria beyond repair. Nigeria requires a call for referendum. Stop deceiving the gullible.

Starboy

Tradermoni misfit.

She should stop this nonsense and come out ....

Has he yet declared, he should make up his mind.

After 7years for doing nothing...he has the guts to advice Nigerians

Sectional sentiments you say and your Oga is champion of it

Good remarks but are Nigerians cultured politically to vote this wise and is your electoral system credible enough, free enough and. Faire enough to ensure that the peoples’ votes are not suppressed Mr. Vice President sir?

No be you go tell who to vote

What did Osibanjo achieve by been a professor ? rather he converted it to toilet supervisor, we don't need Nigeria professor in politics all of them are confused and need mental assessment

Lmao. Call your president with your full chest dear.

That's my man. Say it right till we make it right this time around.

So which one is he, Politician or leader? Because nah woman I dey see like this

Go and seat down somewhere, Mr advice, where you not there since, do you have say since you became vice? Idiot...owambe vice

A joke

Sell yourself with your full chest 😏😏

This is completely a lost man of the century. Intellectual for nothing.

In my opinion ProfOsinbajo cannot rule this country, in his capacity as a vice president, a Senior advocate, and a supposed pastor it is difficult to point what good thing he has done for this country. By putting things in place he lacks the will to rule this country

Starting with you. After all these years what have you achieved besides making empty speeches with no action.

Pastor Ruga! Mr Motivator! Enulari.

You wont be president sir. Evil ends in 2023. Evil=APC, APC=Evil

Is he talking about himself?

But he elected his Boss, a “professional “

Battlefield now..👉 Hmmm 🤔better none 👎😃, southern leaders wake up🙏. Better join self determination race👍.I felt up🤔🙏🙏🙏

Mr VP the cabals will not be happy with this comment

You have said it all. Including has been rejected. QED

Who? Which one is or not? Osinbajo should take the glories or ignominy of this government with his full heart. He's part and parcel of it. Eriri ma ngwugwu, ngwugwu mara onye kere ya.

Is he just waking up?!

Thank you very much as we reject you. -

Buhari left the group chat

U aren't ashamed of urself as a father and so called fake San and Pastor.U guys killed ur country to death.

I laugh in Spanish. Prof do you know the meaning of professionals?

That’s why we are rejecting you

He was right

Nice words His Excellency

Kikikiki🤣😂who is that professional if I may ask mr professor of failure.

Morris_Monye 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Come to think of it, Osibanjo is the biggest failure in this government, because he is more exposed and educated.

Well said sir. I want us to know that there are professional errors. So I think professionals with God fearing character will do the best

Meaning people like osinbajo himself should vacate the scene and run back to VGC.

Professional piwa gi onu there.

Sick brain 🧠

As it stands we don't know who to trust again

Was your oga a professional?

The speaks from both sides of the mouth.😂😂 see what politicians had turned a prof to.

Most competent for me. If presented that is the only Vote going to Apc from me.

Politicicians with sectional sentiments are just protecting their section from animal kingdom where survival is their only goal like in Nigeria but why should someone be there when he or she cannot win sectional vote?

Well he is politician now

What is he talking about sef, this your advice it rether late or is he just waking up or back to his sense. Charity begins from home. This country and his government have been sectional I don't want to believe he doesn't know the meaning of sectionalism

Isn’t he a professional? Mad people everywhere. He has got it wrong now he’s looking for excuses. Freedom is Certain

Someone should please help me with any amount to feed mychildren,This is worst thing I've ever done,but they slept with eating anything please am a widow and loss job during the death of my husband,Please 😭😭🙏🙏2015690377 Adeyemi Omolabake Johnson Kuda bank

Like your boss you mean?

No believe this man

U wan tell me say you were not aware of all that happened? U never speak up, a whole vice President of the country. U don't care about the masses. The money ain't the government money ooo. You politicians are only loyal to your party and your pocket not loyal to the masses.

You that you're a professional. Where were you during the lockdown when people were starving. D international communities gave 🇳🇬 money to feed d nation and even private bodies donated money for d country. You guys bought foods and hoard it somewhere until people discovered it.

This one go dey beef Baba anyhow

As the vice president under the failed administration. What quota did you contribute to change the present situation.

Professionals in what na?

The greatest enemy of this country is the one that does not believe in equity and fairness, every region has professionals in their ranks, SupportSouthEast2023

Obi and osinbajo are really good for the job but Nigeria biggest problem is the north . They will never change and you can’t have them , bring out the desire development / change we all wanted . Best bet, give them their own country

Let's reject, Tinubu, Atiku, Kwakwanso, and all professional politicians. Our considerations:Peter Obi economist, Dele Momusu seasoned journalist, Osibanjo a seasoned lawyer, Moghalu even Governor Nwike these are vibrant Nigerians who God can use turn Nigeria to glory.

Ikor Idaad. Better go and sit down.

Right message but from a wrong person cos he has failed as a deputy!

Truth

If they dig into your own you Will be The worst

For me, nobody is better than you now, even Bubu is not that good... ProfOsinbajo2023

He should mind his business! After their own 8 years of doom we don't need his consultation

mugu

You're on point sir

Morris_Monye Buhari was a professional army, Osibanjo is a professional lawyer, so how did we get here?

You don't fall into any of the category. Just go with your failed boss.

Forget the messenger focus on the message 🤔

This is a public acknowledgment that APC leaders are unprofessional and not qualified to hold any public position.

Osi don turn pro..

Mad man

You served under a sectional government and now👆. You should have resigned if you are so uncomfortable with sectional leadership. Werry is screaming

Well! I will say untill our constitution is well practiced or probably amended and real justice prevail,that's when Nigeria can move forward,even if we elect professionals my brother and sisters egg na egg.

He Finally woke up before the food is almost ready and it is time to eat again..2023..beware of wolf in sheep's clothing..need to say no more

But when exactly did he open his mouth to say this things, look see eh...

Story story

Is he putting himself out of contention?

Abi weyrey ni man yi?

You are absolutely right...

After working in the most sectional and ethnically biased regime? How has those professionals helped the common man and the economy?

Morris_Monye Your advice is noted🙄

One liegeria morons ,educated fools bring the angels 4rm heaven to cme govern fulanigeria wht wld be d end result =zero .blinded humble slaves.

Him wey be professional no be only trader moni him dey share upandan

Morris_Monye You way dem elect as professional Vice President withdrawn come happen nah.. Abeg make all of unah just get out.

when you talk to yourself in a mirror...

He must have learnt how to be more corrupt by learning from his oga. Nigeria don't need you.

By Formal Fake Pastor, once fake all ways fake...

Thanks, we re rejecting you. Hope your 10k trader moni don remover us from poverty?

We need more than a professional to drive nigeria to her rightful destination but people with conscience and drive to do the right thing even when nobody see them.

Buhari was a professional military man but yet we still have insecurities in land. We need a leader who will focus on the Nigeria project, give every zone and tribe a sense of belonging.

This is why he's our mandate.

Criminals parading themselves as leaders 7 year's doing nothing no body can trust someone like you all of you are lie's are you not APC again

Violence against children continues to impact one billion children every year, with devastating long-term consequences for individuals, families and societies. It takes place in every country, and in every environment: at home, at school, online and within every community.

Babe no want serious with him life

Professionals that aren't straightforward abi?

God forbid you osinbajo

I tot this administration had technocrats on their mind before running for presidency?

In a noneshell ' do not make the mistakes you made with us again'

You all have failed us You all are heartless, shameless

Osinbajo might be a good leader . If they gave him chance to rule Nigeria when Buhari died. But, he saw himself with criminals and unprofessional politicians in Aso Rock that can never change the country. Their Aims and objectives to kill, loot and terrorism.

Osibanjor is trying to say something guys, please pay attention 🙏.

Good ohh

Whona go campaign tire, we re waiting for 2023, make everybody just get their PVC ready

Good talk

Good talk mr Vp

They know it’s professionals that can fix the country not politicians, fashola for electricity Wetin lawyer wan do for light

Wida this vertical capping ? 🤔

This brother talks like he's the leader of the opposition party

Tradermoni merchant 😃😃

I reject you

'My hands are tied merchant'...taa disembark

Well said

Getat

Thank you people. We should even reject handicap and imbecilles whose hands are tied with their throats. We should also do away with liars and propagandists both old and young.

Half baked advice abi e no bake sef....Trade moni merchant go dey open mouth anyhow.

ProfOsinbajo what about your own government ? Pastor sin

But you're not a professional

Uncle yemi talking in parables like Jesu, ogbeni no stress us. You sef no be pro.

Oga park well.

And here you are working for Quacks.

Ok boss

Spirit of failure is torment him

After 7 years in office Osinbajo still talking like an opposition politician. Both his principals, Buhari and Tinubu, are perhaps two of the most sectional politicians around yet he never once rejected them.

Lol. Prof is seriously campaigning.

Advice Baba first before coming to the masses

YES OOOH, ONLY IF THEY ALLOW US

OsinBubu said 10k trade moni will boost economy. This is alone wont make this man eligible for an accountant role in a restaurant in a serious country
