Mixed reactions have trailed Vice President Yemi Osinbajo's visit to All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu at his Abuja residence.
Osinbajo’s media aide, Laolu Akande on Wednesday, December 21 said his principal paid "a friendly visit" to the former Lagos State governor.
He wrote in a tweet: “Vice President Yemi Osinbajo stopped by for a friendly visit at the Abuja residence of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu just now.”
The APC vice presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima, was present during the meeting.
Osinbajo has not been part of any campaign since he lost the presidential ticket of the ruling party to the former Lagos Governor in May this year.

....At the meeting, VP & Asiwaju exchanged pleasantries in the spirit of the season. And in response to media inquiries whether this was a political meeting, it was not. pic.twitter.com/VKRKHAlLTM

See some reactions below
Pastor Osinbajo is an unforgiving traitor. Politically, he and his family will be forgotten.

See strong and able osinbanjo, had it been it prof happens to be the flag bearer of APC, who is Peter obi? He too will know he's going no where. But it turned otherwise

Hmm.....Men of Communication. "Stopped by"? That's unnecessary & it undermines the credibility of the visit as intended. @officialABAT deserves more than a "Stopped by" visit. @akandeoj, blessed are those who build bridges (not walls) between leaders. @aonanuga1956 @realFFK

Tinubu is too greedy, he should have let PYO who he knows is better than him proceed, but because of his selfish interest and lack of patriotic belief, he messed the whole thing up.

This picture would have trended and filled with accolades if Bola Tinubu has remained the good godfather he knows how to do best while Yemi Osinbajo is the flag bearer, but baba fe je Ogun ki omo to je ogbon. The ice cream seller and the Jagaban in a frame.

PYO has always been a good leader with a good heart. This visit further attest to the fact that he holds no grudges against BAT.
