Nigerians on social media have taken the opportunity to commend Nigeria’s former Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, for his modest and humble lifestyle since leaving office.
Many have lauded him as an exemplary demonstration of humility.
This appreciation comes in response to a post made by Chief Dele Momodu, the publisher of Ovation Magazine, on a social media platform. In his post, Momodu shared a testimony from an unnamed source about their encounter with Prof. Osinbajo at the Detroit Metro Airport in Michigan, USA.
The source was impressed that, despite leaving office just six months prior, the former Vice President was without security personnel or orderlies and was carrying his own luggage, just like any other traveler. They also noted that Prof. Osinbajo’s humility and simplicity were evident in his interaction with his wife at the airport.
Dele Momodu’s post read: “Former VP, less than 6 months out of office, at the Detroit Metro Airport, no security, no orderly, na him carry him back (bag) all by himself like any other traveler, my wife didn’t even recognize (him) until he showed his Nigerian passport. Respect.” – Unidentified Author.
Social media users have shared their thoughts in the comment section, praising Prof. Osinbajo’s simplicity as a gift from God and urging other former politicians to follow his example.
