Mr. Laolu Akande, spokesperson for former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, has stated that there is no reason for anyone to believe Osinbajo has left politics or resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Akande made this clarification during an interview with journalists on Sunday in Lagos.
Osinbajo, who has maintained a low political profile since leaving office in 2023, has sparked speculations about his possible disengagement from the APC and active politics. His absence from many political gatherings led some observers to question his continued affiliation with the ruling party.
The former Vice President contested the APC presidential primary in 2022 but lost to President Bola Tinubu. He previously served as Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice in Lagos State from 1999 to 2007 under Tinubu’s administration as governor.
Some political analysts have linked Osinbajo’s reduced visibility in the political scene to his primary loss, while others believe he has shifted focus due to his recent appointment as Global Advisor for the Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP).
