     OFFICE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT PRESS RELEASE OSINBAJO TO YOUNG NIGERIAN GRADUATES: INTEGRITY IS YOUR MOST VALUABLE COLLATERAL *VP: Talent, hard work, innovation, integrity and being trustworthy citizens vital for success “I have come to realize that trust or trustworthiness is fundamental to the success of practically everything you will do in life. In other words, if you can build your reputation in such a manner that you can win the trust of others, your bosses, co-workers, clients, business partners, you will be tremendously successful. If you cannot be trusted or people can’t make up their minds whether to trust you or not, you are already on the back foot and you are unlikely to succeed. Trust is the currency of successful business and social interaction. It is more valuable than money because it actually attracts money.” – Vice President Yemi Osinbajo CONVOCATION LECTURE BY HIS EXCELLENCY, PROF.
