But Adeyeye was quoted as saying , “I have received, for the umpteenth time, a video of the arrival of Prof and Mrs Osinbajo at the Lagos airport. The arrival was without the pomp that holders of exalted political offices receive in Nigeria. Along with the video are tendentious and silly snide remarks.

Adeyeye, who was one of the major backers of Osinbajo to become President after ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, added that “May God bless Yemi Osinbajo for not embracing the wayward exhibitionism that often defines the thoughtless populism of the Nigerian political class. His job as Vice President has been done. A hallmark of the Christian life he professes is to be able to truthfully say with Apostle Paul, ‘I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things, I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me Philippians 4:12-13.”

According to him, “Osinbajo does not need a red carpet. The real losers are not Yemi and Dolapo Osinbajo but those whose superficiality makes them to define a leader by the carpet on which he walks.”
