Nice one sir, at 80 still with some sense of humor. I hope these kingmakers can support a young man for 2019. Someone who is agile, understand world economics, creative with policies and above all good administrative manager of a country like nigeria

Let's even assume there are some young Nigerians with such leadership skills. Which among them is actively in politics and have enough guts and aspirations to contest for the presidential seat

I think that's a problem. Cos sincerely I don't see any young serving Nigerian politician who have impressed me enough to get my vote. Except Ambode, and I don't think he can even be classified a youth

by the way dummy..obasanjo was part of the mess..ding ding!! former military head of state..does it ring a bell nowmumu...adios moronic slowpoke

You want to pass off this drivel as constructive argument? Given what Obasanjo inherited from the military, a 36 billion dollars foreign debt and derelict institutions everywhere, any objective assessment of his presidency will agree he was the best so far.

No one is saying Obasanjo is perfect, far from it but compared with others he is way ahead of in every aspect.
The time when telephone was a luxury to most Nigerians is not that long ago.
And Obasanjo was also supposed to be the Nigerian answer to Mark Zuckerberg? Well done.

No, what is wrong with you? There was Shagari, Buhari, Babangida, Abacha and some 16 years between when Obasanjo left and when he came back. Can you name one significant achievement of Nigeria within these sixteen years? And yet you want to crucify Obasanjo who got rid of the big debt burden the previous administrations could not grapple with.
What of telephone and Internet technology? How we forget so soon when telephone was only for rich Nigerians, you couldn't even call within Nigerian cities without a lot of hassles.
Indeed in a land of blind people the one eyed man is still the king.

You keep saying Obasanjo is corrupt, that is what we say about all our leaders whether that is true or not. We know instinctively we are being robbed, we are not getting what we deserve while some people are getting stupendously wealthy without much effort. For this reason I'm prepared to pronounce him guilty as well, though he has done more than any other leader in Nigerian history to tame corruption.

Jonathan did not even bother. Babangida? Corruption, what is that? And you want to crucify Obasanjo? A beg.

If EFFC was used to hound some people "selectively" as you implied are these people guilty of anything or did Obasanjo send EFFC after people because they refused to buy his chicken and eggs?

You are right, GREED is a factor, but am optimistic about a younger candidate, as much as yahaya bello isnt trying, fashola and ambode tried abit, because they had all this new ideas, all this new type of governance. Some old men want to try, but they are just not intune with current reality

what if par adventure we mistakenly voted in another type of Yahaya bello?

Really? You are one of Nigeria's problem

If you cannot dazzle them with brilliance baffle them with bull'sshit. Exactly what you people deserve
