With the expiration of the Buhari-Osinbajo-led administration, former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has since become some sort of renaissance figure internationally. Osinbajo, who during his reign as Vice President was famous for giving keynote addresses at several global conferences, has since risen to international repute.
The legal luminary, who is sought after for his wealth of knowledge and as a champion for democracy, was yesterday, June 12, 2023, hosted to a dinner at the residence of the Norwegian Foreign Affairs Minister, HE Anniken Huitfeldt.
His invitation to deliver a keynote address at the 20th Oslo Forum hosted by the Norwegian Government is a testament to the fact that his acceptability internationally signifies his rise to global appeal.
The former Vice President’s invitation to the 20th Oslo Forum can be likened to the Commonwealth appointment, and this buttresses the fact that, though the former Vice President may have missed out in securing the presidential ticket of the APC, he is renowned worldwide as an international statesman.
