The neandertal (Obasanjo) with his penchant for self-preservation has no shame and no digity. Like the coward he had always been, he now stoops so low as to beg the man he did everything to destroy. To make the second term, he was reported to have made the 'idobale' to Atiku, whom the governors prefered as a president. I am not surprised though, judging by his history, the luckiest and most oppotunistic coward is only playing according to type! 1 Like |

But Sunday Sun gathered from insiders that the trusted aide of the former president invited the former vice president to Ota Farm on behalf of Obasanjo to “iron out their differences”. OBJ is an owu man. Omo Owu ki ja, Omo Owu ki ba enikan binu. Atiku should be very afraid. |

Watchout!!! is this for real? |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by mrpataki(m): 2:18am On Dec 17, 2007 |
I dont want to believe this is for real. A retired general begging?! |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by BigB11(m): 3:16am On Dec 17, 2007 |
This begging process is another indication or confirmation that war against corruption during OBJ's regime is more of a personal vindictive agenda against his enemies than anything else. FYI: As things are turning upside down left and right, OBJ has no other choice but to start begging and I hope he gets on his knees soon. I guess he's now starting to realize how quick the sycophant are disappearing. Yar'Adua on the other hand continues to smuggle Atiku into the Aso rock for secret meeting on a weekly basis. I guess OBJ's initial setup is finally back firing. IBB remains the only friend OBJ has and he clearly knows it. |

with the likes of atiku, obj and ibb, how safe is nigeria are we safe at all,will the common people ever enjoy this country at all, cos all they care about is their personal wealth and securing themselves in power 4ever |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by Mamajama(m): 10:12pm On Dec 17, 2007 |
Totally rubbish. In Nigeria we know it's all power play. No one Nigerian will subject himself to beggin his subordinate, a Yoruba man for that matter. This is how all this useless media try to sell paper. BIGB1 the only reason OBJ and IBB are still friends is because OBJ has IBBs balls in his hands and can open the can of worm on this toothless BABANGIDA at any time. The recent arrest and prosecution of ex governor will catch up to Atiku and IBb very soon. One nation |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by BigB11(m): 10:35pm On Dec 17, 2007 |
and which one will catch up with EHINDERO, the business police man of the year? |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by jerrymania(m): 11:09pm On Dec 17, 2007 |
we all know this is hogwash, stupid, and a political write up. they are just set of rumour mongering articles. well they might have elements of truth, it nor concern me. if the Sun authoritatively reveals, na for their own head, lets authoritatively reveal our own fidings. |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by EmekaNaija(m): 2:21am On Dec 18, 2007 |
Fortunately or unfortunately, this is no political write-up. Obasanjo is currently in a ploy to retain "power" in PDP. Yaradua is gradually learning the ropes of power play, never mind his meekness. Yaradua is only being careful due to the k-leg at the tribunal. Atiku remains a very loyal politician, so in the current battle for the soul of the PDP, either Yaradua or Obasanjo knows that Atiku's support would make the difference in the cold war brewing in the PDP. Do not forget that Atiku remains the leader of the PDM even though he is the AC's presidential candidate. Even without Sun's report it is very obvious that the last minute cancellation of the PDP ward congresses shows there is a powerplay in PDP. Also, Etteh's removal was not just about the scandal, it is also about the battle for the soul of PDP. Next should be the current Senate President. I think Yaradua is currently on the right. He should only be more determined in bringing some corrupt ex-governors to book. Atiku on his part has not been arrested by the EFCC despite all the allegations agaisnt him. I'm still surprised that the EFCC is yet to arrest Atiku as claimed prior to May 29th handover |

Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by Mamajama(m): 10:56pm On Dec 18, 2007 |
Next inline will be ATIKU, then IBB |

That is the key word: If Atiku goes down, OBJ will also go down in less than an hour. What most people do not know. Yes, Atiku may be corrupt, but who is not corrupt among these folks. There is one thing for sure, Atiku has real people behind him 100%, while OBJ stands by himself. Hence, Iyke-D, you're right; OBJ has realized his capability lately. He clearly knows who not to mess with. |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by BigB11(m): 11:05pm On Dec 18, 2007 |
Next inline will be ATIKU, then IBB Dude, pay attention! We find it very difficult to successfully prosecute governor that just stole money last night and you think IBB is next in-line? You must be drunk again. |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by subice(m): 11:08pm On Dec 18, 2007 |
I think the next few months would be very interesting indeed. There's a lot more worms to come out of the can of the OBJ administration. |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by Aleksys: 11:14pm On Dec 18, 2007 |
This storyline is another sensation that is rampmant in Nigeria journalism. We have not seeing anything yet. It is a matter of time that the so call untouchables of today will come around to reveal all their misdeeds while in power. I am yet to come to term with how stupendously rich some civil servant like Atiku became with their meagre salary. Likewise OBJ and IBB and so many others like them. The words of legal icon Gani Fawehinmi is highly instructive. He said years ago that Nigeria of tomorrow will emerge after a terrible revolution and whoever leads the revolution will hold his hand high with blood dripping the at the dawn of the revolution. Ghana's experience is instructive. Let them continue to scheme, judgement day is around the corner. |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by BigB11(m): 11:20pm On Dec 18, 2007 |
I think Ehindero will be next to be captured. If you look at things profoundly, it wouldn't take you too long to realize that Mr. jellyfish (Ehindero) was clearly connected to the down fall of OBJ's administration; he was also the chief general in-charge of election rigging. I do not want him arrested, I want him captured. |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by IykeD1(m): 12:07am On Dec 19, 2007 |
@BigB1
Apparently someone either through mischief or sheer co-incidence chose to call himself IykeD on Nairaland! If you look carefully you will see "Iyke[b]-[/b]D" did not make the contribution to which you were responding to, rather it was "IykeD". Isn't that confusing enough? Apparently he seems to be on his way to achieving his objective. . . Oh well. . . |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by EmekaNaija(m): 12:46am On Dec 19, 2007 |
@Big B1 Next inline will be ATIKU, then IBB If we are good "students" of Nigerian form of politics, then we should know that OBJ's EFCC is a huge joke. Yaradua needs to scrap the EFCC and the law setting it up, if we are to engage in a real war agaisnt corruption. First of all, the crazy law that set up EFCC has no retroactive effect. It can only prosecute from 2003/2004 onwards. That is why IBB can never be touched by the EFCC. That is also the reason Atiku seems boastful and untouchable. Atiku can only be nailed if 1999-2003 is covered because that was when Atiku could have helped himself with the national till. 2003-2007, Atiku was an outsider and as such cannot be implicated. Obasanjo knows that Atiku cannot be nailed even with the PTDF report that "indicted' Atiku in the Senate. Everything done with the PTDF funds had OBJ's approval, whether verbal or not. For Atiku to have a chance of being arrested (assuming he is corrupt), then a new law needs to be in place to cover from 1976 to date, or EFCC law amended. As for Obasanjo, if Yaradua would not probe him, then surely someone else will in the nearest future. That is why OBJ would have a long life. He has so many cases to answer: War crimes, Genocide, corruption and treason, the list is endless |

Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by DRANOEL(m): 8:00pm On Dec 21, 2007 |
fiction! |
Re: Obasanjo Scared: Begs Atiku For Forgiveness! by Bankole01(m): 9:18pm On Dec 22, 2007 |
DRANOEL: If the last news was fiction, what do you think of this latest one. Just so naysayers can believe Obasanjo in on his knees, eating crow and ready to kiss major big black butts (namely Atiku's), PLs read the following: Atiku: Andy Uba, Dangote head OBJ’s peace team By TAIWO AMODU Saturday, December 22, 2007 Wary of the likelihood of a snub and attendant humiliation in his efforts at brokering a rapproachment with his former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, immediate past President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo may have enlisted the services of his ex-Special Assisitant on Domestic Affairs, Dr. Andy Uba as the arrow-head of those to facilitate the reconciliation initiative. He is also believed to have approached businessman, Alhaji Aliko Dangote as member of the team. Until both men served out their terms May 29 this year, Obasanjo and Atiku had waxed progressively on a no-love-lost relationship, a development that saw the former leaders appropriate public fora to lash out at each other. A Saturday Sun source and a close associate of Atiku, while speaking on condition of anonymity, disclosed that with the former president gradually coming to terms with the dismantling of what used to be his legacies by his protégé, President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, he is desperately mobilizing everyone that matters to reach out to his ex-vice-president. And Andy Uba, according to Obasanjo, the source further said fitted the bill for the crucial reconciliation bid. Uncomfortable with the tsunami that President Yar’Adua is gradually turning into, Obasanjo has suddenly realized the need to mend fences with those he gravely hurt while in office, if anything, to save his fast vanishing relevance in the economy and the polity. And Atiku appears to be the biggest beneficiary of his hate. Saturday Sun source further revealed that Obasanjo finally made up his mind to constitute the Andy Uba team, to cut down on the ranks of those he alienated from the corridors of power while in office, but who unfortunately for him now have unfettered access to the incumbent President, Umaru Yar’Adua. Prodded further on why the former president should involve former aides on such innocuous mission, which he, ordinarily should take up himself, our source disclosed that Obasanjo being a crafty character would not be willing to be humiliated in case the trouble-shooting voyage hits an ice-berg. “His fear is that he could be snubbed by those who have vowed, never to have anything to do again, with a vindictive person like him. You know that true to his character, he can always deny knowledge of the Andy Uba team whenever it runs into troubled waters, or in the event that it wants to constitute an embarrassment to him”, the source submitted. Buttressing his point, Saturday Sun source who confirmed the cover story of our last Sunday edition, ‘OBJ begs Atiku’ revealed that the Andy Uba team actually met the immediate past governor of Adamawa State, Alhaji Boni Haruna to help facilitate a meeting between the former president and his estranged deputy, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. “Atiku had sent words that as a true Muslim he has forgiven Obasanjo, just as he is willing to put the past behind him, but that he is not disposed to a meeting with his former boss for now.’ |
