- Vice President Osinbajo's life must be better protected says Dr Frederick Fasehun
- Fasehun says security around Osinbajo has become very lax
- The OPC founder says the way Osinbajo was treated in Edo state is a pointer that must not be neglected
Dr

Congress (OPC) and National Chairman of the Unity Party of Nigeria
(UPN), has asked that more should be done to protect Vice President
Yemi Osinbajo.
Osinbajo's life must not be joked with, beef up his security - Fasehun
Fasehun who made the call on Monday, March
13, said it is important to beef up security around the VP, stressing
that his security should not be compromised.
Vanguard
reports that the OPC leader expressed fear over the manner in which
Osinbajo’s security was handled during his visit to Benin, Edo state
recently.
He said the vice president’s security handlers should be more alert and alive to their responsibilities.
Osinbajo's life must not be joked with, beef up his security - Fasehun
“Security lapses occurred during his
visit to Benin, Edo State, when a young boy beat the cordon around His
Excellency to steal a handshake from him. Viewed critically, the
incident highlights a security breach a bomber could easily exploit.”
He made the observations at a press briefing he addressed on the state of the nation in Lagos.

“His
handlers must take his personal security more seriously. Nothing must
happen to Acting President Yemi Osinbajo. God forbid that he should be
the object of any attack, it will spell doom for this country because
then you can trust the Yorubas and the South West to make both the blood
of the dogs and the baboons really, really bloody,” he said.
Recall that few months back, Fasehun said President Muhammadu Buhari represents the worst threat to Nigerian democracy.
He said: “Buhari has the trappings of an unrepentant dictator,” and is not a converted democrat as claimed during the 2015 election campaign, The Punch reports.
The
OPC founder was reacting to the recent crackdown on some judges by
Department of State Services (DSS) over allegation of bribery.
Fasehun expressed worry that security operatives have not been following due process in their fight against corruption.
