The Nigerian Vice-President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo has solicited with the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and those calling for Nigeria's disintegration to have a rethink.

Osibanjo noted that if Nigeria had broken into small components nations, he (Osibanjo) and his cohorts may have missed an invitation to Tinubu's birthday in Kano because they may have needed visas to travel to places like Kano.

Osinbajo said this while delivering his speech virtually at the 12th Bola Tinubu Colloquium in commemoration of Tinubu’s 69th birthday in Kano, which was carefully monitored by Journal Reporters.

The Vice-President, who was the special guest of honour, said the initial plan was to hold a completely virtual event but Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State offered to host a physical event that would run alongside the virtual one on Zoom.

“For the purveyors of breaking up into small components, into small countries, perhaps they should be reminded that we would not have been able to accept Governor Ganduje’s offer to come to Kano at short notice since we would all have needed visas to come to Kano,” Osinbajo said.

Osinbajo added that Kano was a strategic location because it was the home of radical and progressive ideals.
