As a secondary school student, Yemi received numerous awards for his intelligence and academic prowess. These awards include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>State Merit Award (1971)<\/li>\n<li>School Prize for English Oratory (1972)<\/li>\n<li>Adeoba Prize for English Oratory (1972-1975)<\/li>\n<li>Elias Prize for Best Performance in History (WASC, 1973)<\/li>\n<li>School Prize for Literature (HSC, 1975)<\/li>\n<li>African Statesman Intercollegiate Best Speaker&#8217;s Prize (1974).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Despite his skills in mostly art-related courses, Yemi&#8217;s father preferred that he study science so that he would become a doctor in the future. However, with the help of his college principal who tried to convince his father, Yemi was finally allowed to study law at the university. The young man would go on to gain admission to the University of Lagos to study law. He eventually graduated in 1978 with a second class (Upper) honors degree in Law. He was also awarded the Graham-Douglas Prize for Commercial Law.<\/p>\n<p>After completing the one-year mandatory professional training at the Nigerian Law School from 1979 to 1980, and at the same time going through his one-year mandatory youth service where he became the Bendel Development and Planning Authority Legal Officer, he left the shores of the country for the first time in 1980.

The British Institute of International and Comparative Law is another organization that he belongs to and has held positions on the Council for Legal Education of Nigeria and the Nigerian Body of Benchers. In addition, he advised the board of the African Development Bank (AfDB) on ethics and served as an independent director of CitiBank Nigeria.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Yemi Osinbajo&#8217;s Career As A Pastor<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Yemi Osinbajo&#8217;s decision to become a pastor shouldn&#8217;t be so much of a surprise, especially to those who are aware of his strong Christian background. Even with his strong background in Christianity, Yemi only came in contact with his creator and became a born-again Christian after he became a professor of law. He made a decision to become a pastor in the Redeemed Christian church of God (RCCG) after coming in contact with Pastor Tony Rapu, the senior pastor of the Apapa parish of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. After attending an annual program organized by the Redeemed Church, Osinbajo settled within himself to serve God under Adeboye&#8217;s ministration.<\/p>\n<p>Ever since that day, Prof Yemi Osinbajo has risen through the hierarchy and finally became a pastor in charge of one of the most popular Redeemed Church parishes in Lagos. That was the beginning of his unrestricted encounters with the general overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Adeboye.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CKzkr1EAT52\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

He was also a close aid to the Church\u2019s General Overseer, Enoch Adeboye. He has at various times been Master of Ceremony at the church\u2019s Holy Ghost Convention and Congress usually held at its Camp Ground along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his journey into politics, Yemi insists he is still the pastor-in-charge of the said province regardless of his position in the government. He said he is only giving himself as a loan to the political world. Even when he was appointed to be Buhari&#8217;s political running mate, Pastor Yemi Osinbajo sought the consent of his wife and &#8220;Daddy&#8221; (Pastor Adeboye).<\/p>\n<h2><strong>His Foray into Politics<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While it is not clear when exactly Yemi Osinbajo first entered politics, it is a known fact that the professor and pastor learned so much about politics during his service year as Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice of Lagos State under Tinubu&#8217;s Administration. Of course, his loyalty and commitment to Tinubu&#8217;s tutelage helped him gain ground in the political hems of Lagos State. In 2013, he was tasked alongside other notable Nigerians to design the manifesto for the All Progressive Congress (APC). The manifesto culminated in the presentation of the \u2018Roadmap to a New Nigeria\u2019, a document published by APC as its manifesto in the 2015 general elections.<\/p>\n<p>The highlights of the Roadmap included a free schools meal plan, a conditional cash transfer to the 5 million poorest Nigerians if they enroll their children in school and immunize them. There were also a number of programs designed to create economic opportunities for Nigeria\u2019s massive youth population.<\/p>\n<p>Months later, Yemi Osinbajo was a made running mate to the party\u2019s presidential candidate, <a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/facts-must-general-muhammadu-buhari\/\">Muhammadu Buhari<\/a> in 2014. Before his inauguration, he was a solicitor to the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Alhaji Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, on the suits against the former President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>He Became The 14th Vice President of Nigeria in May 2015<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5363\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5363\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Prof.-Yemi-Osinbajo-and-General-Mohamhad-Buhari-e1430381006617.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5363\" src=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Prof.-Yemi-Osinbajo-and-General-Mohamhad-Buhari-e1430381006617.jpg\" alt=\"nigeriancurrent.com\" width=\"1024\" height=\"638\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5363\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">nigeriancurrent.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Osinbajo assumed office as the Vice President of Nigeria after taking the oath of office on 29 May 2015 at the Eagles Square, Abuja. As the Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, part of his responsibilities was to oversee the economic planning team and report as well as make recommendations to the president who takes the final decision. Because of his legal background and antecedents as a commissioner for justice in Lagos State, many expected that he will contribute a great deal to the much-needed reform of the judicial system at the national level.<\/p>\n<p>Osinbajo also spearheads a number of projects aimed at making life a bit easier for people in a country where daily existence is hard. One oDCf such project is N-power &#8211; a special program aimed at unemployed university graduates, part of a broader Nigerian youth unemployment and development scheme. The program, created on 8 June 2016 and designed for Nigerian citizens between the ages of 18 and 35, has its main focus on addressing the challenge of youth unemployment by providing a structure for large-scale and relevant work skills acquisition and development while linking its core and outcomes to fixing inadequate public services and stimulating the larger economy. The program has received<a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueprint.ng\/n-power-beneficiaries-thumb-up-fg-give-testimonial-of-achievements\/\"> commendations<\/a>\u00a0for overseeing the employment of thousands of Nigerian youths who are unemployed.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Yemi Osinbajo was Acting President for 38 Days<\/strong><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CWEFzIrAtPz\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
