What Mandela Told Me About Power ––obasanjo by Justblog7: 7:20pm On Dec 06, 2013 |
[img]http://3.bp..com/-dsp6wbOea80/UqHeDCt_sDI/AAAAAAAAzG8/Hh94eWyJr5I/s1600/Obasanjo+5.jpg[/img] Here is what President Olusegun Obasanjo said on Friday in his tribute to the icon, Nelson Mandela: "Certain that his task was completed, Mandela modestly refused to seek re-election after his first term in office as his presidency elapsed. I still recall his pragmatic words when he said to me ‘Olu, show me a [reasonable] place in the world where a man of 80 years is running the affairs of his country' . "This, to me, reflects an unequaled sense of modesty for a man who spent 27 of the prime years of his life in prison for a just cause." When will our leaders in Nigeria begin to exhibit such unequaled sense of modesty? http://www..com/2013/12/what-mandela-told-me-about-power.html |

Maybe olu, forgot dt he almost finished this country in his bid to continue as president even for a fouth time, well. Change they say is constant maybe he has repented. RIP the dead, and to d living the fortitude to bear the lord we pray oh Lord. Finally to our leaders here in Nija, I pray we learn for the tributes from world leaders to Mandela. Lest I forget, am the first to comment. Hip hip hurray. |
