Obasanjo Drops Bombshell On Successors by dre11(m): 7:26am On May 10, 2016
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo Monday said Nigeria would have made remarkable progress if his successors had continued with the policies and programmes of his administration.

He declared that while the late former President Umaru Yar’Adua reversed some of his policies, the succeeding administration of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan also slipped into massive corruption, which his (Obasanjo) regime fought to a standstill.

He also said though President Muhammadu Buhari may not be actively knowledgeable about economy and foreign affairs matters, he believed in the current leader’s fight against graft and insecurity.

Obasanjo spoke as the special guest of honour at an international conference organised by the Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State.

The event was attended by the university’s Chancellor, Bishop David Oyedepo, Nigeria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Prof Joy Ogwu, and Executive Vice Chairman, Ibadan School of Government and Public Policy, Dr Tunji Olaopa, among other dignitaries

Some time I wonder why the supposed elder statesmen in this country.Who are suppose to be the bridge builders,are coming out to disrupt the building of the bridge.If ST.Olusegun obasanjo can only keep quiet for once since he has nothing to bring to the table than being a media nuisance.This country will be relieve of his unnecessary media attention and shameful throwing of jabs to a personality that hardly notice nor respond to his numerous tantrums.
You claimed you meant well for this country.You had eight years of service to this country and nothing came out.

Obasanjo is the root of all our problems in modern day Democracy. He forced Yaradua and Jonathan on us and has recently been in support of buhari. Later he will change tone when buhari Relegates him. Attention seeker

Obj is not a saint at all!!

But facts and figures (of infrastructure, standard of living and the national reserves) spoke for him.

I believe if Nigeria had continued at that level, we will still be far better off than where we are now. #Truthbetold

Chris Mullin was one of the reliable ones in London who worked for Her Majesty`s Government around the world. In one of his political Diaries, Decline and Fall, he was in Nigeria to witness Obasanjo`s show of shame in 2007:

Monday, 23 April

The Residence, Abuja

Awoke this morning with nothing in the diary save a vague promise of breakfast with the national secretary of the ruling party, Ojo Madueke, who had clearly forgotten we were coming
One phone call from Ojo and the meeting with Yar`Adua was arranged.... we then call on Nasir El-Rufai, one of a handful of people with a direct line to the President, Olusegun Obasanjo. No sooner had we indicated that we would like to see the President than he pulled out his state of the art mobile and tapped in a number. `Abdul. Is the President there? He is in a meeting. Would you ask him to call me back?

Within minutes Obasanjo himself was on the line. `Mr President, I have Mr Mullin and British High Commissioner with me. They would like to see you. Good, I would bring them around
With that we piled into the flag car and were whisked through the multiple rings of security, into the presidential compound in the shadow of Aso Rock...Our main purpose was to warn him that he was in for a battering from the international community for the manner in which the 2007 presidential election had been conducted. He had already worked this out for himself. He knew that the election had been over-rigged- at one point, he said, he had been shown a poll suggesting that the ruling party would win an utterly incredible 35 out of 36 states and had sent word to his henchmen to cool it ( in the event they only took 29 ). ...

Only once before in Nigeria`s history has power passed to a civilian government and that, too, was Obasanjo`s doing. He may be an uncouth old rogue, but you can`t take that away from him.

Well, Obasanjo can call himself anything he likes, but what all and sundry know is that he is an irredeemable electoral fraudster. The whole world knows that!

I agree with him, he laid so many foundations but UMYA was ill-advised to reverse them. GEJ eventually continued and completed a few though
