[size=14pt]Daniel can’t return to PDP –Obasanjo[/size]

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has ruled out the possibility of former Governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, returning to
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), just as the hierarchy of the party
in the Southwest lampooned him for what it described as anti-party activities, which caused PDP a dismal performance in the state.
Speaking during PDP’s Southwest Zonal Strategic Meeting held
in Abeokuta, the state capital, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of PDP lamented what he described as indiscipline and disunity among
party members.

He said this just as the National Vice Chairman of the party in the zone; Alhaji Tajudeen Oladipo, lamented how ‘Daniel worked so hard against the interest of the party’.
Obasanjo, who said the meeting was organized for the party to re-strategize for future challenges and elections, also canvassed unity and cohesion among members for a common goal.
According to him, the turbulent political storm that swept the party from the South-West did not make the party fall, recalling that the party had similar experience in the past.

“We stumbled, but did not fall, this is a bitter lesson for us to go back to the drawing board and make fast adjustments.’’
Going proverbial, Obasanjo said: “When a child falls, he looks forward, but if an elder falls, he looks back to see what led to his fall. I want the PDP members to do likewise,” he said.

While challenging members to work as a team for the common goal, Obasanjo urged the party “to accommodate genuine run-aways from the party, who want to come back”, but cautioned that those who deliberately destroyed the party in the past and did not show remorse should be avoided like a plague.
His words: “As much as I agree with the suggestions that we must allow those who had strayed to return to the party, I want to caution that we must not totally forget the past because evildoers will never rescind from their bad deeds.”

Making veiled reference to Daniel, Obasanjo said: “Those who misbehaved last year, if you say we should forgive them totally, they will do worse things next year. But those who have shown remorse should be allowed back into the party. But there are some that what they did was so bad that by the grace of God, I will never be in the same party with them for the rest of my life.’’
He identified absolute indiscipline and gross violation of the party’s constitution as the bane of the party’s downfall, adding that this was not the time to lament about the past, but to look forward for better party cohesion.

“There is nothing new under the sun, in the past, we stumbled and regained our stand, today, we are going to regain our lost glory especially in the South West.”
Obasanjo, who also used the opportunity to speak on the Speakership of the House of Representatives, insisted that the constitution of the party zoned it to the South-West.
“The speakership of the House of Representatives, which the constitution of the party zoned to the South - West, is our legitimate right that must be given back to us.’’
He adds: “The National Secretaryship of the party being zoned to
the South-West is not an issue because naturally it belongs to the zone.
According to him, the injustice done to the South-West over speakership must be corrected as that is the basic thing.

OBJ is still mad at Daniel over Iyabo. Did Daniel sleep with his daughter or is this hatred over simple politics?.

A drowing man will clutch at a straw.
So much from baba to a prodigal son.

they are the same people

Who cares except you

Since 29 may 2011 when daniel and other corrupt governors handed over to their successor,none of them has been tried for corruption.Abeg do we still have anti-corruption agencies in Nigeria ? What happened to all the investigations farida claimed she conducted especially the one on daniel where obj personally petitioned the agency ? Nawao

Why don't we Naijas hold our rulers to these same standard,

-IBB/Atiku/OBJ must not return to leadership;
-Corrupt politicians have failed us and would do worse if they come back;
-Failed officials and some traditional rulers have worked against Nigeria's interest.

When will this man die so this country can have some peace?

lolz

see obj talking like a saint

PDP is not worth our discussion. They have been our problem from 1999 to present.

Daniel,we warned you but you wouldn't listen, Baba na gangst baba oo

one day, God will put all our enemies in one ship and drown them. If their counsel is not for the ppl of this great country Nigeria, they will never stand as one. We are not hearing them fighting to help the ppl in Jos where they have created serious division, the roads they met better and left worse than ever, railway system in comatos, airline strictly for the rich, education bastardized for the sake of their private schools, oil wells as compesation for political supporters, power sector in total disarray, nothing is going on to empower the less previleged they have milked so dry. The frustration that came upon the egyptians that drowned them in the redsea will come upon the enemies of our collective economy, d looters of our treasury, the killers of our dreams.

OGD is a bigger idiot than baba if there is such a thing, after publicly acting like an idiot biting the dirty hands that fed him, now he wants to come back and eat. lol.

Obasanjo needs to be jailed for his crimes against Nigeria


OBJ devalue Naira by 500% Abacha never devlaue Naira at all

OBJ increased inflation Abacha decreased inflation from 54% to 8.5%

OBJ looted at least $100bn in my estimate Abacha alleged loot is questionable (OBJ made allegations in vengence)

OBJ increased fuel prices help himself loot more Abacha used revenue from fuel fund Petroleum Trust fund to raise living standards

OBJ looted Nigeria Airways till it closed down Abacha maintained our National Airline

Don't ask for the death of your fellow human.

Baba have spoken twice have i heard it!

Some of these "Old Fools" act as if they KNOW TOMORROW!

What if he himself is not even around for the "Welcome Party"?

Some of these people are a big disgrace to the Yoruba Heritage.

Wisdom is what we expect from "Elders" but Gangsterism and Perfidy is what we get from the likes of OBJ, Bode George, OGD, Fayose, e.t.c!

The PDP itself is nothing but an "Association of Evil doers" who constantly "estrange for selfish" reasons and "unite" when its suits their selfish purpose.

Until we can fashion-out a better alternative (Jerry Rawlings style), people like OBJ would continue to strut-around like they still have some shelf-value!

Mtchew!

Crumbling old man

OGD PLS BEG FAYOSE TO ADV U ON HW TO DEAL WIT
BABA IYABO

Don't ask for the death of your fellow human.

@bi ill wu,
my bible says; suffer not a wicth to live.

@topic,
na only God will punish all these old wicked fools. does pdp belong to obasanjo? one day, we will see obasanjo in a cage as he will be displayed in a law court. it is only in nigeria that a man that cannot manage his own family will be the father of nation. only in nigeria that u will see a morally dead obasanjo as a role model. shame to obasanjo, shame to pdp and a bigger shame to those that believe pdp has anything good to offer us as nigerians.

Wetin Daniel do OBJ sef? A beg make the man go rest somewhere.
