Jonathan Cautions Aides Against Attacking Obasanjo by Idokojimmy: 6:03am On Dec 05, 2012
President Goodluck Jonathan has directed his aides to stop the media war against former President Olusegun Obasanjo with a warning that any aide that errs will lose his job.
The PUNCH learnt in Abuja that the presidential directive came on the heels of intervention by some unnamed chieftains of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party.  The party lords were said to have asked the President to caution his aides.

A Presidency source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said some members of the party felt that the exchange of words between the President, his aides and the former President was not good for the image of the party.

The source said, “The party informed the President that the members of the opposition could capitalise on the disagreement to cause a major friction between the two leaders of the party.

 “The President has directed his aides not to speak either directly or indirectly on anything that is injurious to the former President on any issue. This is because some leaders of the PDP have advised him not to take on the former President in a fight.
“Apart from the political implication of such, we also believe that it could heat up the polity and cause tension in both the party and the polity.

“Moreover, the party has seen that the opposition is already trying to make gains from the fight and that will not be a good thing either for the two leaders or our party.

“The President respects Obasanjo. He will not do anything that will widen the gap between them. I am sure that the disagreement will be settled.

“Besides, there are no plans by the President to witch-hunt Obasanjo with any probe.”

A member of the National Working Committee of the party, who spoke with selected journalists in Abuja on Sunday, said the party was worried about the increasing animosity between the two senior members of the party.

Obasanjo was the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the PDP until April this year when he resigned his appointment.

Obasanjo stirred a hornet’s nest recently when he gave an indication that Jonathan might be a weak leader because of the way he had been handling the security challenges facing the country.

The former President said he directed the security agencies to fish out the militants who killed some security men in Odi, Rivers State, during his tenure as President.

Jonathan however used the occasion of his Media Chat to respond to Obasanjo’s comment, saying the invasion of Odi during Obasanjo’s presidency did not solve the problem.

Rather, he said, innocent lives were lost as the security operatives did not succeed in killing the militants that were suspected to have killed the security men.

So Jonathan needed other people to cation him to desist attacking Obasanjo. That clearly shows Jonathan lacks an iota of wisdom.

Nobody and I repeat Nobody has ever fought Obasanjo and have gove scot free. They always end up regretting it. The man Obasanjo isn't definitely not a Saint or corruption free (he is damn corRrupt) but the fact remains he is the ONLY Nigerian living politician that certainly wants the Unity of this Country even when others including Jonathan wants Nigeria to divide.

As painful as it might be, Obasanjo clearly told Jonathan the utmost truth.

If Jonatha believes he doesn't still need obasanjo's help, he is making a very big mistake because the International world will rather associate with Obasanjo than want to have anything to do with Jonathan.


Atiku Abubakar, Ayo Fayose, Rashid Ladoja, Joshua Dariye, Ghalli Na'abbah, Pius Ayim, Tafa Balogun, Late President Umar Yaradua and others have all eneded up regretting their scuffles with Obasanjo.

I share in this view. The opposition would want to ingloriously capitalize on the rift knowing fully well that they have no chance with a united PDP. Someone need to play the fool and let it be the younger, which is Jonathan. He had always stooped to conquer, let it not be different now.

Can you name A̶̲̥̅​ single politician that has never stolen our money?

The fact is, obasanjo is still by far the best president we can ever have.
I wish obasanjo was back. Who is boko-haram?
He was A̶̲̥̅​ yoruba man who did not favored yorubas during his tenure. That's why Yorubas deflected to AC recently. You can hate him because he is Yoruba, but that can take his credit from him. He is still the only president that has balls.
OBJ is still the best and we miss him due to this GEJ boko haram puppet.

Oga o.
The last one month has witnessed a whole lot of political drumbeating, calculations and permutations.
OBJ threw a punch about tackling terrorism and tagging GEJ as weak
GEJ responded through his Attack lion
OBJ responded again through FFK
Atiku bought himself a leadership Award.
Atiku donated to Obasanjo's mosque. Only Northern Leaders attended
Atiku bowed to OBJ at an event.
GEJ calls his aides to ORDER.

Everyone seems to be Warming up for 2015...
