Obasanjo To Buhari: I'm Your Boss, I Won’t Stop Criticising You by Lymasaba(m): 10:05pm On Mar 06, 2019
Former Nigerian President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo said he would not stop criticising President Muhammadu Buhari until he does “what is right.”
Obasanjo who pointed out that criticism remains an integral part of democracy, said he had nothing personal against Buhari and his government.

He was reacting to the Alake and Paramount Ruler of Egbaland, Oba Aremu Gbadebo, who implored Obasanjo to play down attacks on the President upon clocking 82.

The duo spoke at the 82nd birthday anniversary celebration of Obasanjo held at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL) in Abeokuta.

The first class Monarch who served as a military officer during the military administration of Muhammadu Buhari between 1983 and 1985, referred to Buhari as his boss.

While describing Obasanjo as a warrior, Alake said: “At 82 years of age, I think you should keep your sword more rather than use it always.”

But Obasanjo, in a swift reaction, told the Monarch that he remains Buhari’s boss, saying having served as President, he could criticise his government when the need arises.

Obasanjo said “If I say anybody in government in Nigeria or any government for that matter is not doing well, let that government prove that it is well. It’s not anything personal.

“So, Kabiyesi (referring to Alake of Egbaland) your boss, Buhari; there is nothing personal between me and him. Just as he is your boss, I am his boss, with all due respect.

“Now, the point is that I have been in that position longer than any Nigerian will ever be there. That’s true. If any Nigerian comes in and have two terms, he will not have almost four years of military rule. So, I have been there longer than any Nigerian would ever be there.

“So, when I say something, I know what I am talking about. Kabiyesi (Alake) anytime you say, “leave my boss alone,” I say “he is your boss”. But I am also his (Buhari) boss. So, you might also ask your boss (Buhari) to leave his boss alone or do what it right that his boss wants him to do.”

The guest lecturer at the birthday celebration, who is a South African Freedom fighter, Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi, delivered a lecture titled “Colonialism, Apartheid, Freedom and South-Africa Rising”.
Buthelezi, in his lecture, identified corruption as the biggest challenge facing the African continent

That's sure.

He has a right to talk and we in Ogun state have a right to ensure that Obasanjo's candidates are always beaten during election year.

The last time Obasanjo's candidate won in Ogun was 12 years ago. In 2011, his daughter Iyabo was defeated in the polling unit in front of her father's house in Ita Eko.

Since then, we've been beating baba and his candidates every election year. 2019 was just the ultimate disgrace. He ran to Hilltop in 2019 and that was where Buhari beat nonsense out of him and put sand in his mouth.

Na ordinary carcass dem package for una, we wey dey Ogun know as e dey go. Baba dey chop am steady for our hand.

NEPA has accounted for how they used the money and electricity improved than now that Buhari has already spent X4 of that.
The truth is that the fearless Obasajo is a great Blessing to Nigeria. Democracy needs check and balancing, Buhari should appreciate and improve.
