The Presidency has explained cause of the continues absence of the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo.
President Muhammadu Buhari’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, said the absence of Osinbajo was due to enormous assignment at his hands as the Chairman, Economic Sustainability Committee.
Adesina said this while feeding questions during an interview session on Wazobia radio.
“He heads the Economic Sustainability Committee. They hold meetings and these news (items) are on the televisions,” he said.
Adesina noted that some of these meetings are now virtual or through videos, assuring that Osinbajo is hale and hearty.
He also explained that Lagos State secured a grant of N10billion from the Federal Government in the fight against the outbreak of COVID-19, because of their commitment to curb the pandemic.
“Technical support is very very important, very vey important… Lagos State got technical support before it got financial support, manpower support is very good, facility support is very good,” he added.
