BREAKING: Obasanjo bombs Jonathan again, says
President’s “evil” actions destroying Nigerian democracy
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has again torn at President Goodluck Jonathan, saying Nigerian democracy remained at risk due to the action of the present administration. Speaking at a book Launch in honour of the pioneer chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission, ICPC, Mustapha Akanbi, in Abuja, Mr. Obasanjo, who is the Chairman of the occasion, said the president should stop encouraging ‘verbal violence which may not physically hurt but has ways of degenerating into physical violence’. Mr. Obasanjo said the greatest indictment against any administration is to be seen trying to destroy opposition of all sorts which invariably mean destroying democracy. “Management of democracy without resorting to brute force and dictatorial tendencies must be cultivated,” the former President said. “As a leader, you must not deliberately do evil or condone evil. You should know that you will one day give account to God, you may cover up here, but before God, there is no cover up.” The former president also spoke at lenght on the President’s handling of the Boko Haram insurgency, corruption, the economy and youth unemployment. On insecurity, Mr. Obasanjo said Boko Haram is not out to “frustrate anyone’s political efforts” and lamented that it took Mr. Jonathan the years to fully understand the menace. On corruption, Mr. Obasanjo said, “when the head is rotten, the whole body is useless” On the economy, he said Nigeria would continue to sink deeper and that what Nigerians are told about the state of the economy “is not truly what the economy is”. “The economy is in doldrums, if not in reverse,” he said. Mr. Obasanjo’s latest attack on the President is coming seven days after he rated Mr. Jonathan’s performance as below average. The former president had spoken last weekend in Abeokuta while addressing book writers as part of activities marking the Ake Arts and Book Festival. “I rate this current administration below average,” Mr. Obasanjo said in response to a question about Mr. Jonathan’s performance. The former president also said he deserved credit for helping an individual from a minority tribe become Nigeria’s President.
“Rather than take blame for bringing Jonathan to power, I should be taking credit,” he added. The Nigerian presidency responded Sunday, slamming Mr. Obasanjo and describing his rating as untrue and misleading.
In a statement in Abuja, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Doyin Okupe, said Mr. Obasanjo’s rating was at variance “with the facts on the ground”. Mr. Okupe said President Jonathan had performed so well that “in terms of performance and achievements, no
administration since 1960 when Nigeria gained independence from Britain, has done as much as that of President Jonathan”

i hardly reply kids from unknown motherless babies home, so enjoy ur fame

Hmm

Nigerians can no longer cope with OBJ senile state. They better lock him somewhere. They should stop him from attending public functions. The more he open his mouth, the more he keep talking nonsense. GEJ administration no doubt have his challenges but Mr. president is trying and we the majority of Nigerians are solely behind him. We are going to vote for him in mass come 2015. OBJ should go and die.

On corruption, Mr. Obasanjo said, “when the
head is rotten, the whole body is useless” On the
economy, he said Nigeria would continue to sink
deeper and that what Nigerians are told about the
state of the economy “is not truly what the economy
is”. “The economy is in doldrums, if not in reverse,”

NICE ONE BABA OBJ.

OBJ = ONE MAN MOPOL

nigerian youths what are u doing, u let dis old fools that have lived their lives play with your future

Obasanjo just said it as it is, I'm not in a way surprise at those pap-brains hauling insult at Obasanjo, they are jes like Esau(they've traded their future for their present comfort). In as much as the blame is also on Obasanjo for dis current pity state we are in as a nation, I think we need to commend him for coming out to say the truth!

He did excellently well when compared with Jonathan. Remember Nafdac under Akunyili, CBN under Soludo, EFCC under Ribadu and FCT under El-Rufai. Remember how communication and agriculture was before him. He has his flaws but never to be compared with Jonathsn who is the worst in all aspects.

Old soldier no dey fear to fire verbal shots.

As military Head of State, Obasanjo built the second generation universities including UNIPORT where Jonathan graduated from. He built polytechnics. He constructed major roads including the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. He completed the National Theatre, Iganmu, Lagos, the largest in the world. He built airports in Ilorin, Akure, Maiduguri, etc. He brought about LGA reform that gave Nigeria a uniform third tier of government.

Obasanjo is a busy man. He still works with international organizations that use him as envoy.

plz tell me why

All because Jonathan refused not to contest for second term?

If Jonathan had agreed to step down for Sule Lamido in 2015, would Obasanjo be saying this thrash?

His livestocks at the ottah farm need his attention more than the Nigerian people do.

pple die for jonathan to get to dat post( then they call am luck say jona get luck). wen bros jona get there pple wey don die for country pass pple wey die during biafara war(sorry to say dis)
