Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has disclosed his affinity with President Mohammadu Buhari, saying the President sees him as a brother and also treats him like his son.



This was made known while he was speaking in Katsina, the home state of President Buhari on Thursday during the launching of the State's version of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise, MSMEs clinic.

Osinbajo's latest position has vehemently faulted the news making round that there may not be any love lost between him and his boss following the wording of a recent letter the President wrote to the National Assembly, announcing a transfer of power to him (Osinbajo).

It will be recalled that President Buhari had on Sunday at the verge of his departure to London for a follow-up on his medicals written to the National Parliament, informing the lawmakers of his trip abroad in the fulfillment of Section 145 of the 1999 constitution.

While many expected the president to categorically state that Osinbajo would “act” in his stead, the President in the letter said that his vice will “coordinate” the activities of government in his absence.

The development didn't sink well to many and has consequently elicited concerns across the nation.

But in a series of tweets @akandeoj yesterday, the spokesman to the Acting President, Laolu Akande quoted Osinbajo as saying that President Buhari has assigned him many responsibilities outside treating him like a son.
