He added; “After I have spent seven and half years as Vice President of Nigeria and I have acted as President… the only question I should ask myself if I am called to run for office, is, who have I sworn an oath to?
“I have sworn an oath to the Federal Government of Nigeria.
“I’ve sworn an oath to our children and grandchildren to come, that with all of my knowledge, experience, and everything I have learned; I will serve them.
“When it comes down to such a question, the only thing I am required to ask myself is; after all of what I’ve learnt, after all of the experience that I now have, should I deny those to this nation? If it is possible for me to serve this nation, with everything that I have, should I say no?”
