In his remarks, Osinbajo said the current federal government had not deprived the South West of what it was entitled to, urging Yorubas to vote Buhari to sustain its prime position in the nation’s affairs.
He said this evident in citing of rail, road, power and agricultural projects by the Buhari government in the South West.
