Former Nigerian Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, has achieved yet another significant milestone by securing an international appointment shortly after leaving office. Renowned as “the star boy” and a prominent figure in the Buhari administration, Osinbajo’s influence and popularity continue to soar even beyond his tenure alongside former President Muhammadu Buhari.
In a Twitter announcement on Tuesday, Osinbajo expressed his joy at being appointed as the Global Advisor to the esteemed Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP). He conveyed his excitement, stating, “I am thrilled to announce that I have been appointed Global Advisor to Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet @EnergyAlliance. Together, we will work to unlock capital flows into the clean energy sector and boost Africa’s share in the global carbon market through #ACMI.”
Osinbajo emphasized GEAPP’s remarkable commitment to supporting developing countries in transitioning to clean energy, ensuring universal energy access, fostering economic growth, generating employment opportunities, and promoting sustainable livelihoods. He expressed his eagerness to collaborate with @EnergyAlliance.
Following Osinbajo’s departure from the Vice President’s office, there had been anticipation surrounding his next endeavor, leading to speculations and wishful thinking among Nigerians. Previous reports had outlined several potential paths the former VP might explore after concluding his tenure. These speculations included expanding his law firm, assuming an envoy role to the United Nations or the African Union, returning to pastoring, resuming lecturing, or pursuing motivational speaking.
Osinbajo’s appointment as Global Advisor to GEAPP serves as a testament to his exceptional capabilities and commitment to driving positive change. Nigerians and global observers eagerly await the impact he will undoubtedly make in his new role.
