The Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, alongside his wife, Dolapo, voted at the Victoria Garden City (VGC) Polling Unit, Lagos State, for the governorship and state Assembly elections, and stated his desire to see a Nigeria without religious and ethnic sentiments.
In a brief chat with the media, the vice president who celebrated his 62nd birthday on Friday, when asked the greatest gift he would want Nigerians to give him for this birthday, responded: “Well, one thing I would like very much is for all of us to work together towards building a great country. I think we all have what it takes to make this country truly great; and the greatest gift would be all of us working together, across tribes, across faith and the entire nation coming together to work with President Buhari and the government to achieve the very best that we can.”
The VP said he was pleased with the conduct of the elections at the polling unit thus far.
