Nigeria's Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, has stated that any government official who attains office in order to get rich is mad.
Osinbajo said this on Thursday while receiving a delegation of Christian Ministers Welfare Initiative also known as the Pastors’ Forum, Taraba State.
“This morning, I had a meeting with the President and he repeated to me twice, he said ‘at my age, there is only one thing I am looking for, I want to see a great Nigeria.’ He has no other objective and I feel very inspired by that,” Osinbajo reportedly told his guests.
He said anybody who had the opportunity of being the President of the country should only be thinking of how to improve the lot of the people.
Osinbajo said, “It is madness for anybody in our position to be looking for money.
“According to him, God put people in a position of authority for them to be able to do something for their people.
“I think if any Nigerian gets the chance to be President of the country, there is nothing he/she is looking for anymore, except that, while there, you improve the lot of the people.”
