“I believe that the very reason why the Almighty God gave me these experiences, these insights, and these opportunities, is that they must be put to the use of our country and its great people,” the VP had stated in his declaration speech.

The Vice President then began the interactive sessions with the delegates in Ibadan, Oyo State, on Friday, April 22.
