Parachoko: My brother, you are actually wrong. Obasanjo picked Atiku as running mate before the 1999 presidential election and they both ran on the ticket. The Presidential election was held in February 1999 and they ran and won on the same ticket. However, Atiku had already won the Governorship election of Adamawa state. The Governorship elections were held in Nigeria by January 1999, ( a month before the presidential election). Atiku resigned as the Governor-elect and joined Obasanjo on the ticket. Bonie Haruna who was Atiku's Deputy Governor-elect was later sworn in as Governor in May 1999 following Atiku's resignation. I hope its clear now sir 2 Likes |

MissLeslie: What is the name of the running mate of Obasanjo that died? Presidential election was held February 1999 while Governorship elections were held a month before, January. Atiku already won Governorship elections of Adamawa state. He resigned after Obasanjo nominated him to join him on his ticket. They both ran and won the presidential election. No running mate died sir. |

Jack500: Atiku wasn't a beneficiary sir but a main force on that ticket. I don't know where you all get your information from that an imaginary running mate died. What's the name of the running mate if truly he died? Atiku having won Adamawa Governorship election resigned after Obasanjo nominated him to be his running mate. They both ran on the same ticket |

When you can't predict the future, it's best you keep your mouth shut. Last time, he belatedly supported Atiku seeing him as the better of 2 evils. He is probably saying this now as he might be rooting quietly for one of the presidential candidates today |

Picking ‘@Atiku’ As My Running Mate In 1999 Presidency Was A Mistake – Ex-President Obasanjo Declares, Subtly Rejects PDP Candidate For 2023 | Sahara Reporters Me: Former President Obasanjo gross with his Vice President Atiku Abubakar is not about corruption. Yes, Atiku is extremely corrupt but so also Obasanjo. Obasanjo eternal hatred of Atiku is because Atiku led the defeat of his Third term agenda. Obasanjo bribed 200+ Nigerian Lawmakers with N50 million each cash to change the construction to allow him go for Third term but he lost that bid. Obasanjo should be grateful to Atiku that he supported him for second term despite his failure to perform in his first term. Obasanjo's present saintly behavior contradicts the reliable text of history. The Obasanjo's regime was extremely corrupt. I met a young Lady in Abuja who was given huge contract in the power sector by that regime. She collected hundreds of millions of Naira without even visiting the site. He asset was that her father was a childhood friend of Obasanjo. When Obasanjo left prison in 1998 after the death of Gen. Abacha to contest the Presidential Election that he won, he was financially broke but when he left power in 2007 he was among the richest men in Nigeria. It was the Obasanjo regime that established the tradition of giving huge contracts and paying the money without the Contractor even visiting the site. In the power sector alone, the Obasanjo regime 'spent' more than $20bn. More than 70% of this huge funds was stolen. #ElbinawiTweets |

kriss27: Definitely you have not been to the university, if you had, you would not be contesting this.Go and ask those who are graduates,or undergraduate students, they'll tell you.Then a third class degree in in any course is totally useless. You can't even use it to secure a teaching job in the public schools. Also claiming that they use it to secure political posts present you as a stark illiterate.What's a political post ? You Ibos just like to make false claims in total ignorance and delusions. |
Re: Obasanjo: I Made A Mistake Picking My "Number Two" In The 1999 Election by kriss27(m): 2:09pm On Jun 27, 2022 |
BJanta: You are the stark illiterate here ,that lacks cognitive reasoning because of your hate for Ibos! Can you even show me the evidence that he came out with third class ? With your asserted third class, he has worked in numerous big organizations before becoming the governor of Anambra state where he left a remarkable record! Your BAT can't provide any of his certificate, yet he claimed to have gone to Chicago university. If you have sense, being a third class graduate can't stop you from being elected as a president as long as you are competent If atall he graduated with a third class. It can't stop him from succeeding! You that graduated with a better result, what have you achieved? That you are dissing a former governor with a track record It's your irk that is rooting for BAT despite what APC is putting us through Tribalism has clouded your sense of reasoning |
