The Vice Chairman of the Senate Committee on Agriculture and immediate past governor of Abia State, Senator Theodore Orji, has described the former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo as a “prophet”.

Sen Orji, representing Abia Central Senatorial District in the Red Chamber of the National Assembly, spoke on the recent letter written by the former Nigerian leader, Obasanjo, where he urged President Muhammadu Buhari to bury his 2019 re-election bid and retire back to his hometown in Daura, Katsina State.

It should be recalled that Obasanjo had written an open letter to President Buhari, in the letter, he asked the president to shun seeking for re-election in 2019, according to him, Buhari has performed below expectations.

Reacting, Sen Orji, in an interview with newsmen said President Buhari should heed to Obasanjo’s advice, according to him, former leaders who failed to listen to Obasanjo, saw the consequences.



He said; “I can only advice the federal government to accede to the advice from the elder statesman and former President of Nigeria. The man has become a prophet and that is why I advise that his letter should not be treated with levity, but with the seriousness it deserves. It is not the first time he has written to a President.

“He has done so over the years and no sooner has the letter been received than those that failed to heed it have themselves to blame. But seriously speaking the former President has performed his role as a former President and an elder statesman. Such a person cannot be around and see things going wrong and keep quiet.

“So for me, there is nothing wrong with what he has done and I also think that there will be nothing wrong for the federal government to take his advice and do the proper thing. There was nothing personal in the letter he wrote and he was merely writing to a friend and brother both in the military and democracy.



“Both of them have come a long way so they owe themselves only the truth and that is what President Obasanjo has done. He should be commended for the courage as he was commended when he wrote in 2013. He should not be villified.

Igboran San ju eboruru lo (obedience is better than sacrifice) Buhari is a stubborn Asshole and he will be disgraced out of Villa by 2019 if he fails to heed to advice

If others is talking this short man will talk also, the man that buried Abia. The good thing this man did was to give Abia Ikpeazu who is gradually fixing Aba in particular for higher igr and increase in employment.

When a liar tell the truth,people find it difficult to believe in him. When a bad man preach people don't take him seriously. That's why God sent good men as messengers or prophet.
People like Obj and Orji shouldn't be the carriers of good message. If they do its the fault of good men in this country.

Who allowed this man to speak? As far as Abians are concerned he's a misfit .a calamity,a disaster and a very distasteful person who left Abia state in its current ruins.

Sharapp T A ORJI . OBASANJO is only a prophet to PDP And it members.

Yes buhari is a failure and a misfit but what gave this idiot the moral obligation to speak about people failing in government?

This short fool still carries the trophy of most useless governor in Nigeria.

There's a malfunctioning robotic zombie 2 posts above me

Food for thought...
Meanwhile, its quite unfortunate that the ones we look unto, supposed leaders keep deriding themselves with some ridiculous statements or speeches they make in the public. This Orji's is one of them; how can someone use Federal Government to represent an individual just because you want to avoid being confrontational, yeye politics!
Can u imagine this statement:
I also think that there will be nothing wrong for the federal government to take his advice and do the proper thing.
Did the letter writer address it to the Federal Government, @$$ol.

This small imp should shut da f^ck up. The fool destroyed Abia state and still had d mouth to blab rubbish. He shouldn't even be making political statement. Yeye corrupt man that did not even lay a single project through out his 8years.

God punish you there ,T A Orji!

Anumanu TA Orji still dey alive? Idiotic Failure of the Federal Republic.

Notwithstanding his performance as abia governor, and as a senator, on this he's giving a sound advice to buhari
