Lagos lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana, on Monday blamed the current woes confronting the country on two former heads of state Generals Olusegun Obasanjo and Ibrahim Babangida.

Falana critisised the two former leaders in a statement on Monday following a joint statement by the duo stating that there was “poverty, fear and uncertainty” in the country.

Obasanjo and Babangida had, in their statement on Sunday, warned that the consequences of the current state of the country were capable of affecting national unity. They added that the loss of innocent lives being experienced across the country was no longer bearable.

However, Falana accused the former heads of state of misrule, failing to harness the nation’s resources, a development which he said, led to the current condition of the country.

He said, “For about 20 years both of them misruled and wasted the rare oppotunity to harness our abundant resources to make Nigeria one of the leading nations in the world, hence, ence the current state of poverty, fear and uncertainty.”

He described as an arrogant posture, the failure of both of them to apologise to Nigerians in their statement for the havoc their regimes had caused the country.

The human rights lawyer said Nigeria had witnessed ethno-religious clashes which claimed many lives and destruction of property under their regimes.

At least OBJ tried, but as for IBB who openly accepted that he is an evil genius has no right to speak after the open demonstration of corruption entrenched in the Nigerian system till date.
Abacha, OBJ, Yaradua tried to correct it but could not complete the process. Now GEJ is trying his best to bring it to a bearable level but facing resistance so that at the end it will be declared that ‘ no good thing can come from the south-south’. Their plans will not work by God’s grace. God do always fight for the innocent.
God Save Nigeria.

How did OBJ tried? explain please

this is what the north want, that is why they keyed into boko haram ideology

Had it being that they said and did the right ealier nigerians would have seen reason wit IBB instead they were calling gej all sort of name and putting the blame on his doorstep alone
me think it is time all the northen politicians should start having a rethink and restrategise if they want to have any share in nigerian politics
