It was privately funded.

Everything is not about your stupid oil money.


Stop the hate, bitterness and bad bele. [/quote] it was privately funded by who? please this our money stolen money..

donkilluminati:
one talent i grew up knowing Nigerians with is being good at talking down on each other and saying disparaging words on people that are greater than their whole generation can ever smell. they are good at talking down on people based on fiction and not on actual fact. google the word Hater, it will only lead you to an early grave.

My dear its not about hate but facts.

Now tell me,has he written any book or made any intellectual speech in his life?
Where is his certificate?
A man who says he doesn't know how to make wealth is of course a foolish and lazy man because he will depend on others and will never impact positively on the economy.

Please follow me with a superior argument and stop crying foul to whip up sentiment here.

waoh...an architectural master plan..bt this is more of an art exhibition museum than jxt a library..bt I guess I now understand wat d "presidential" now means in the name..nice place though

I personally feel this is more of a Resort and Museum than just a library or art gallery. Should have been named Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Resort & Museum.

So beautiful and massive tho needs much publicity and marketing to drive in more visitors and tourists. With this and other tourist destinations in the country such as Obudu Cattle Ranch, Tinapa among others, I see no reason why the country shouldn't be racking in huge revenue from tourism honestly.

Ahmeduana:
Is it a museum, junk room or zoo? Because I didn't see a single book not even under my watch!

Balkan:
Library or Art Gallary?

my mind exactly!

OBJ best fits a president despite all. He's a unifying factor. He's not tribalistic.

Royruky:
Can't find a single bookshelf. It seems more of a museum or art gallery to me. Definitely not a library

You are right there in my brain

mhizv:

You'd pay. They take u on a tour first. Wasn't with my school I.d so I paid more than I should.

how much?

Looks more to me like a personal museum! Where are the books.

GoodiOG:
As an Igbo man, this is the only Nigeian Legend i adore. Obasanjo is a great man indeed

What is the significance of the Igbo in that statement? Just ruined a good sentence.

Inside our money

hatchy:
Very loaded and beautifully crafted.
This goes a long way to show how OBJ is intellectually endowed unlike the dullard occupying Aso Rock who have never written any book or delivered any intellectual speech in his life to benefit mankind.

A President who doesn't have ordinary standard six certificate and does not even know his actual age, is that one a President?

By your trash,we know who you are

Cargo36:

If you are pained by my words, then you have no choice than to......

SKhanmi:
Hmmm, m curious already, will be visiting it in a few days, who's with me?

Will love to

deenee:


Yeah stop the hate. The project was and is still privately funded getting support even from Carter Foundation, Ford Foundatio, Bill Gates and Facebook. The fact that it's privately funded is the more reason why the library is still operational and well maintained

I will also advise to stop having tunnel vision. Very soon oil will no longer be relevant. Other countries are developing renewable energy, you are still shouting our oil. You can take the oil and shove it where the sun does not shine.

You jst like d op, u couldn't hide ur hate in ur post. Der is no place whr I said dat the library was funded by oil money. I only drew d op's attention to his hate comment towards d natural resources dat has kept dis country togeda. Now cos u as dumb and petty as the op its not possible for u to see dat.

Vanillaskin:
A library without books, is that one library
They should just tell us it's a museum

IamGoke:
Is this a library or a museum

Couldn't find a book shelf!

Ahmeduana:
Is it a museum, junk room or zoo? Because I didn't see a single book not even under my watch!

aybabz101:
is it Obasanjo's museum or a digital library coz i am not seeing any book ooooooooo........abi d books dey d oda room ni?

sophoccles:
As much as I admire Olusegun Obasanjo's personality, his charisma & his drive to continuously improve himself and expand his horizons alongside that of those fortunate to be around him, I think his politics is extremely execrable.

One question for the OP though: Where the hell are the books? This seems to be more of a museum than a library.

Nickydrake:
This exquisite library, built with money squeezed out of wealthy businessmen and rotten politicians eager for favours during Baba's tenure, contains everything in the world except books.

Royruky:

The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library even has recordings of the president's phone conversations while he was in the White House.

For example, here is a recording of a telephone conversation between President Kennedy and Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa of Nigeria in 1963. Kennedy called Balewa to tell him about a space mission that the US had just undertaken.

Balewa teased Kennedy about Dick Tiger's victory over the American, Gene Fulmer.

The audio in the first link has both sides of the conversation. The video shows on the White House side of the conversation and below is a transcript of the conversation.

1) Children view a mock version of the Oval Office as it was when JFK was president. The exhibition is at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library.

2) People view President Ronald Reagan's official limousine at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. The license plate reads "Gipper" (Ronald Reagan's nickname was The Big Gipper).

3) Jacqueline Kennedy's wedding dress at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library.

4) Presidents Barrack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush and Jimmy Carter at the inauguration of the George W. Bush Presidential Library And Museum.

God bless this man. Hate him or love him, OBJ is a leader with foresight, ingenuity and charisma!

GoldNiagara:

For the fact that few people liked and shared my statement, It means they understand where am going....since you are the only one who countered me, you must have already known that u lack common sense

There are so many idiots who don't even know what a "Presidential Library" is. They are revealing themselves as ignorant people. Maybe you should Google something before making a comment that will make you look stupid. This is exactly what presidential libraries look like.

A place to be....

You must a dullard too for attacking pmb as if he's d only presido without a library. How many books has gej written as a former lecturer and presido? I don't just know why some people can't just comment without insults.

Good job.



Sadly with all the explanations, they are still asking the same ignorant questions and the same embarrassing comments per museums.

Many of them are naturally ignorant and unexposed to such references and presidential library to them = Books and bookshelves, they absolutely and obviously don't know the meaning of presidential library or what it looks like.

And these uneducated and unwilling to learn youths are our so called leaders of tomorrow?

This is just sad.

MrMaestro:

They are not only ignorant, but also lazy and unwilling to learn.

deomelllo:




OBJ is still the most respected African leader alive, even more than the sitting presidents and heads of states.

He knows and has been at every facet of the Nigerian history. If Jonathan had listened to his advice we would not have been in our present predicament. He saw the potential in Okonjo, Oby Ezekwesili and so many people in his cabinet. People say he is corrupt. He's not he knew the tradition and culture of Africa... how to balance it with government. Under him the economy grew to the highest level ever.. Obasanjo was the only true Nigerian patriot to lead Nigeria... no tribe was marginalized. No complaints from any group of people. Even the hausas...

My friend counter me with a superior argument and stop crying like a baby because I pointed out some of the many flaws in this man.

Has ever written a book? At least many retired General in his class have done so.

Does he have an ordinary school certificate? No because he claimed its with the military. How can your employer have original of your certificate.

Has he ever delivered any intellectual speech,be it in the high institution, organised private sector or even international organization? No, because he doesn't have any knowledge to transfer.

Your hero recently said he doesn't know how to make money. Isn't that a dumb statement from a leader who ought to lead by example of wealth creation.

He doesn't even know his exact age.
Chai! This is a disgrace coming from a President of Africa's most populous nation.

BTW I supported this man,carried his matter on my head and campaigned with my last sweat thinking he is who he claimed to be, but see where we are now.

By 2019 Nigerians will decide a better way to send him packing back to Daura and if you can't take it, then you can go and .......

No need for PMB to build any presidential library because presidential libraries are not built while they are still in office, they build them after leaving office or at the end of their terms.

I know you you must abuse the president because you are predisposed to such idiocy, hate and bigoted ways, but very ignorant and uneducated per the reference to PMB and presidential libraries.


Btw, is GEJ also a dullard for not building one for himself? See how idiotic some of you get?

You and your cohorts who share same sentiments are always lurking around looking for every opportunity to defend your ignoramus and stupid hero.

You better get off my mention because you have nothing reasonable to say.

You are predisposed to hate, bigotry and bitterness so no surprise here, but there is no excuse for ignorance, idiocy, mental laziness, self inflicted stupidity and lack of any desire to learn.

I don't even know why you must let us know that your only portion in life is hate and bitterness.
