Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has dismissed speculations and rumour in the social media that he has resigned or is about to resign from the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
A statement issued on Thursday by Osinbajo’s spokeman, Laolu Akande, in Abuja, said the vice president made the clarification at a meeting with young Christian leaders on Wednesday in Lagos.
The Vice President described his purported resignation as deliberate propaganda.
The statement said: “They are deliberate propaganda. Today (Wednesday), they’ve been spreading some information around that I have resigned.

“They said I didn’t attend a security meeting yesterday. I was too busy in my office.
“The same security people were meeting with me that same evening. Must I attend every meeting? Can’t the President hold a meeting with the security chiefs without me?
“They said I was so angry that they didn’t bring me to that meeting, that I was excluded, then I resigned! I have not resigned.”
