Osinbajo also said Nigerians need to unite against those only interested in stealing its resources.

“Even in the midst of all that the country is going through, there is a growing consensus by all and sundry on the need for good governance,” Osinbajo said.
He added, “This is why the President and I have made a call that we need a new tribe of Nigerians. We do need a new tribe of men and women of all faith, tribes and ethnicities, who are committed to a country run on high values of integrity, hard work, justice and love for the country.
“I mean a tribe of men and women, who are prepared to make the sacrifices and self-constraints that are crucial to building a strong society; who are prepared to stick together, fight corruption side by side, and insist on justice.”
