After his failed bid to clinch the presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has stated that he’s not quiting politics any moment soon.

He stated this while addressing “representatives of the Diaspora Professionals for PYO” in a virtual meeting, a statement by his media aide Laolu Akande said.

“I intend to stay very actively engaged in the politics of our country, because I believe strongly that, if God gives us that opportunity, the change will be swift and we will make a real difference.

“We must continue to push. If we give up and say let’s see how it goes, we will be much further back than where we started from.”

Some weeks ago, the All Progressives Congress held a special convention to elect a presidential candidate for the APC in the 2023 general elections at the Eagles Square in Abuja.
However, Osinbajo came third behind former Lagos governor, Bola Tinubu, and ex-transport minister, Rotimi Amaechi.
