Osinbajo on his relationship with President Buhari

"I think one thing that we must recognize is the way this administration works, it has always been that of team work.
There is very little that is done without the President’s clearance and endorsement, so generally speaking, even with some responsibilities that are mine constitutionally, we always have full discussions and agreements on them, and in some cases there is delegation. But by and large, I practically discussed practically everything fully with him while he was away and I had his endorsements before we were able to go on and do what we did."
