Wow! I cant believe Obasanjo can have a positive thought like this, may be his regreting for not using d opportunity God gave him by exolting him frm d prison to became our President well. Its unfortunate Baba Obasanjo, u cant eat ur cake and have it and u cant bring d days that has passed back. As a mater of fact, u r d initiator of all this evil and corruption u jst mentioned. Had it been u had ur way u ought to have initiated d 3rd term system, but u failed. U r d most arrogant and cruel democratic President we have ever had, even to d extend of cautioning d journalist wen u r asked a question that do not favour u. U should be some where in d dessert away frm noisy environment doing restitution and asking for God's mercy for ur sins now u stil have d time bcs there is no repentance in d grave, not going about wit ur unrepented attitude seeking for whom to crucify

THIS OLD FOOL SHOULD JUST SHUT DA FÚCK UP!
HYPOCRITES ARE MY WORST ENEMIES.
IN AS MUCH AS I HATE THIS PRESENT ADMINISTRATION, OBJ DID BAD TOO.
IN YOUR TIME,
- YOU STOLE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS
- YOU VICTIMIZED MANY GOVERNORS THAT WERE NOT LOYAL TO YOU
- YOU DID NOT GIVE THÎEFNUBU BREATHING SPACE
- YOU INCREASED PETROL PRICE FROM N2O TO N70
- YOU STOLE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS UNDER THE DISGUISE OF ELECTRICITY PROJECT WITHOUT ANY RESULT etc
BABA YOU ARE A THIEF!
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SPEND THE REST OF YOUR MISERABLE LIFE IN KIRIKIRI.
GEJ TILL 2015.

Ex-president Obasanjo telling us all what to do. But what did HE do about unemployment while in office?

Learn! To me, OBJ has been the only leader during all his administrations to empower the youths using most importantly teaching programs like grade two, pttp, nti and d rest. I still put him as one of the best Nigeria eever had.

ELGREF:
if any one of you have any evident show that obj is corrupt, bring it out, or take it EFCC, stop ya sentimental talk.....obj expose everybody, both yoruba, hausa,ibo, am very sure, if obj is corrupt like pples saying, one or two pples could have bring evidence, nd probe him,,,,, but I saw only assumption, ,,,

Obasanjo is an extremely corrupt man. That generation of leaders have one thing in common: the end justifies the means. He is no moral man at all.

However leadership is not about morality alone. It is also about persuation, focus, objectivity amongst others. In these OBJ has been the most effective leader Nigeria has ever had. He has single-handedly founded and navigated our democracy through choppy waters and pointed it forwards. The election of GEJ was a masterstroke, the splitting and neutralization of the northern power bloc that has led to the emerging two party mixed regional polity as we see today another great move.

So when he speaks about corruption in the house he knows that with the right structural reforms in place first corruption can then be tackled.

This is where I defer from those who feel corruption is the only problem and an anti-corruption crusader is all we need. Well the truth is that it has been tried by the Buhari/Idiagbon regime before and it didn't work and didn't last because there was no structure to contain it and no fuel to run it.

We have to get the Houses working well first to eliminate corruption down the line. This OBJ started, GEJ must progress and his successor even more.

I am not holding brief for any government past or present but OBJ wants to come to equity with dirty hands. You made mentioned of enabling environment, why didnt the enabling environment work for Nitel and Mtel? The other ones are owned by private business men who wouldn't want to play with their investments, the reason they made sure everything worked out for them

No let me swear for u dis morning ooo...So u dey happy with the way thins re going in Nigeria.U talked of private investment what is happening about PHCN at the moment .

I think in this case we shud look at the msg and not the messanger. This present government's corruption is quite high. I am one of the people that supported GEJ. But frankly have u asked ursef 'what positive impact has gej admin contributed'? Unemployment is much on increase. No effort to fight corruptn in this present govt. I cant think of anythin gej has achieved. Rather what u see gej encouraging corruptn. Do u knw that gej had inhouse meeting in aso rock with d pdp govs. And d govs put to gej that they will suport him to retain presidential seat only if he endorses that he will not use EFCC and ICPC to chase, and gej endorsed. Just to tell u how corrupt this govt is. Yes obj leadership was not without corruptn but u cant compare gej's with obj's in terms of economy and corruption. During obj's rule, d invention of efcc and icpc was a very good measure to check corruptn. What about telecom? What have we gained in gej's admin? I am frm southeast, but I think we shud not streamline this to ethnicity. Let us pray sincerely for God's direction and be guided to give our suport to whoever God wil open our eyz to go for. Thats ny humble submission

omg !!! what communication !!! villages in south africa and burundi have mobile fones , obasanjo did not bring communication , he made money from communication via shares and debentures ( and thats why he was interested in it ) , it was a south african company (MTN) that actually brought communication devises to naija ... and Nigeria still has the highest cost to run a mobile fone and internet .. , the only good my obasanjo did is that he paid off the naija debt and left a large excess fund reserve ( which help to preserve our naira )- GEJ is currently busy spending that now .remember OBJ spending 6 billion on electricity and nothing happenned , thats his greater sin and mistake

Obasanjo raised an important issue which we should be pondering on rather than abusing him. How true is the claim that Jonathan bribes legislators to stop them from impeaching him on the ground of corruption all these years?
Obj said it, he should be bold enough as usual to write an hundred page letter to the world in clarifying it. GEJ is no saint, OBJ is even in my word "Saintless". He should not paint himself better that the rest. They are all the same. Hypocrites!!!

Those people you mentioned did not say anything but mere beer-palour political bunkum. They are bunch of blackmailers and deceits. Don't waste your time listening to Amaechi, he is a political leech.


Out of a lot of nonsense, there is a sense. Yes, their comments might have some political undertone notwitstanding, there are elements of truth in it. Moreso, I'm more particular about youth consciousness and proactivism not blame games all d time. It is high time Nigeria youth voice out against bad government.

Abeg this is a critical issue nd all the point laid down need urgent solution followed by actions I just wish what prof wole soyinka said abt d youth is not right but nw it seems to b right cos we are blindfolded with religion and tribe abi na ethnic pls let us all think outside the box the past is gone we only have the present nd the future.

Do we now conclude that because the first born is a failure all other siblings must also be a failure abi what cos o don't see the indictment of OBJ wen we should all look at the point we re here attacking him are we all saying there is no more corruption in the land pls where is ICPC and EFCC today
NAFDAC nko where are they now they are all gone all we hear of TAN abeg let's reason well
obj raised salient points, though he's also the architect of almost all. Its not a matter of attacking Obj. Our nass is a failure more especially the house of reps(shame). I hear manifestoes based on removing corruption from both parties, they all have sizeable representation in the nass, what have they done starting with the excesses of the nass. So majority of our failure lies in the nass not the executive they play oversight function on the executive. But mind u we deserve what we get 'cos we do sentimental than objective judgement on issues. Nigerian masses, bunch of gullibles blinded by religion n ethnicity.

I don't know what we still need to massively demonstrate against these thieves called leaders! Obj is going, prof Wole Soyinka is going... Let us take our destiny into our hands by helping ourselves. Revolt and get what is rightly yours not tips from cruel politician to cause mayhem in our polity. Think! And stop blaming games.
