Nigerian governors have paid glowing tributes to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo for his leadership and values as chairman of National Economic Council (NEC).
Prof. Osinbajo who chaired the valedictory NEC on Thursday thanked members of NEC, comprising of governors of all the states of the Federation, Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria and others.

Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode said VP’s leadership produced a “robust and purposeful NEC group, consistently stayed together pursing same goals, adding that subsequent governors would have to emulate their predecessors.”
He also thanked the VP for the payment of backlog of salaries when they just got into government.
Akwa Ibom State Governor, Udom Emmanuel noted that “Governors never had cause to be known by party lines, because VP provided quality leadership and encouraged freedom of expression. He accommodated every comment made, contributions in the past four years.
“The Unity in the council is unprecedented. He showed concern during the pipeline vandalism, brought peace and happiness in the region and his visit back then is still fresh in their memories.
“Ease of Doing Business in Nigeria is also a success recorded by the Council,” he added.
Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha said the VP “is a patriotic Nigerian, who smiles over issues when one expects him to react negatively.
“The humility he displays is very rare. There’s great difference between NEC of the past and NEC under VP’s leadership.
“The speed with which issues regarding the country were handled were second to none. NEC became a family under the leadership of the VP.”

According to the Holy scripture that says out of the mouth of two or three witnesses a matter shall be established. At this juncture, wailers should have understood based on the attestation of governors that make up NEC that Osinbajo is a rare VP that Nigeria has ever produced with a unique leadership style, giving same opportunity to everyone to express their mind irrespective of their political affiliation. I must say this that Osinbajo is the kind of leader that Nigeria really need at this time in order to tap from his wealth of knowledge to bring lasting solution to our problems facing our nation
