Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has reacted following an alleged memo from him to President Muhammadu Buhari seeking his consent to resign his membership of the All Progressives Congress.
The said memo by Osinbajo, dated June 24, 2022, with reference number: SH/VP/605/2./0, became public on Thursday.
It read: “I have the honour to inform you that for sometime now, I have been having series of meetings and pressure from my immediate family members on some matters.
“One of the issues borders on my continuous participation on active and partisan politics, and by extension, my continuous membership of our party, the All Progressives Congress, APC.
As a father and great member, whom without you, I would not be where I am today, regrettably, I write to seek for your permission to resign my membership of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
“However, if the timing of this plan is not convenience or acceptable by Your Excellency, I will surely abide by your decision and advice, which I will consider to be the final.
“Please accept the assurances of my highest regards and loyalty.”
But reacting to the development, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity in the Office of the Vice President, Laolu Akande, said it was fake.
Akande said: “Where do you people even get these things from?
“Who gave it to you?
“Anyway, for the avoidance of doubt, the memo is fake.
“VP didn’t write any such thing.”
