naptu2:


He was around 7 or 8 years old (if I remember correctly) when Obasanjo first met him during his visit to Akwa-Ibom. Obasanjo was talking to him, but he didn't reply because he couldn't speak or understand English (it was shown on NTA News), so Obasanjo decided to adopt him. That's when he started formal education.

I've just read a 2004 article about that incident. He was actually 11 years old and in primary 3, but he couldn't speak or understand English when Obasanjo adopted him.

Despite his flaws, President Obasanjo was nationalist in his outlook and appeal during his time in office.

Senate Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, with Udoh Henry (2nd from left), who was adopted by former president Olusegun Obasanjo, during his first working visit to Akwa Ibom State, when Obong Attah was the state governor. Udoh Henry is now a 200 level Economics student at the Bells University, Abeokuta, Ogun State.

This picture was taken yesterday, during the 79th birthday celebration of Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, in Abeokuta, Ogun state.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo picked up nine-year-old Nsikak Udo Henry of Ikot Ebekpo in Onna Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State in 2005 and decided to adopt him. He still enjoys full privileges accorded to the biological children of Obasanjo... buh

What does age have to do with acquiring knowledge?

Have you ever heard of an advice from a noble man that we should look for knowledge from cradle to grave?

One of the 'legacies' of OBJ is the adoption of children from different places in Nigeria.

These are the kind of things we do in this country that makes me wonder what kind of people we really are.
A man who have served this nation in the highest level the longest whstvfo we have to shoe for it, 16b dollars expended on power sector yet we can't see the impact and today we are celebrating
I'm sure she would have euloggised h as the best thing that ever happened to Nigeria.
$16 billion is enough to build 10 refineries yet he would not build one...he kept increasing the price of fuel every now and then.

This is exactly how it all played out.

When Obasanjo visited his community in 2005. The mother of the young lad kept rolling on the floor and crying. "My president please help me, my president please help me"

Obasanjo moved closer to her and asked "madam, do you know me?" The woman replied "yes nah, na u be my president na"

Obasanjo asked "what do you do? How can I help your business?"
The woman replied "na only one pikin I get, na hin be my business"
Obasanjo then said "give me your boy and I will make him president one day"

The woman quickly called for the boy who was playing with his peers while Obasanjo waited.

When the boy arrived, after the woman had briefed her son on everything. Obasanjo asked the boy "will you follow me?" The boy replied"I dey craze wey I no go follow you?"

And that was it. He has since been living with Obasanjo, he travels every summer with the rest of Obasanjo's younger kids.

*This is a true account, including the conversations. I made sure of writing it as it played out*

This is very touching. All the best for the young man. And thanks to God for OBJ showing true love here
