Obasanjo Dumps Politics For Evangelism, Organizes Nationwide Crusades by Maxymilliano(m): 10:05am On Jun 24, 2013


Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo may dump politics for evangelism soon, DailyPost has learnt.

The Ota farmer, we gathered has joined other clerics in organising nationwide crusades.

The reason, it was learnt may no be unconnected to the fact that President Jonathan could not allow him to dictate how he wanted Nigeria to be governed.

In protest, Obasanjo was said to have dumped politics for evangelism, having been trained at the National Open University.

He was said to have teamed up with a royal father from his home town, Oba Adedapo Tejuoso, Karounwi III, and the world-renowned evangelist, Kayode Williams whose ministry is Bishop Kayode Williams World Outreach, to hold crusades nationwide.

Sources disclosed that Obasanjo, Oba Tejuoso and Kayode Williams, an ex armed robber who repented while in the Sokoto prison, have begun a five-day crusade in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, yesterday.

Confirming the new status of Obasanjo, acleric who is also an indigene of Ogbomoso, Pastor Kayode Alabi, said, “Yes, it is true that former President, Obasanjo, Oba Adedapo Tejuoso and Bishop Kayode Williams are coming to Ogbomoso for a five-day crusade beginning from today (yesterday).

The whole city is agog for the programme tagged ‘‘Healing Ogbomoso Land Gospel Crusade’’ holding at the Beulah Baptist Convention Ground, Ogbomoso. The programme is being hosted by Ogbomoso Christian Ministers’ Fellowship.”

According to him, Obasanjo may have resolved to spend the remaining years of his life serving God who brought him out of prison and made him president for eight years. He said: “Baba Obasanjo has many reasons for returning to God to serve him.

You would recall how Gen. Abacha arrested him with others, sentenced him to death for alleged involvement in a phantom coup; he was set free after spending three years, three months and three days in prison. He was elected president and served for eight years and today he has many reasons to serve the same God. Don’t forget that he graduated as an evangelist from the National Open University. God could use anyone who is ready and willing to serve him.”

You can do all the crusades you want Mr OBJ, we have already reserved a special grill for you in Hell.

This man obj is the most unfortunate thing to happen to us as a nation.
It was under his watch that corruption went viral and impunity became the other of the day.
We had an opportunity to start life all over on a clean slate after the military nightmare and he was the chief architect that bungled that dream.
He wants to do restitution?
He better start by returning all the loot and national commonwealth him and his cronies cornered for their personal and selfish aggradizement.
God punish devil.
Do not tempt the Lord ur God.
The prayer of a sinner is an abomination before God.

grin This is a welcome development, The spirit will lead him to use his wealth to empower people and better the life of the common man starting from his community. Because of his generosity people will praise the name of the Lord non stop. He will set the trend for MOGs who do not need offering money or tithe. I forsee a lot of wonderful things coming to pass because Baba Iyabo answered the call of GOD.
But then of course this is just a rumour!!! angry
