Press Release: Obasanjo’s Letter Unbecoming,
Self-Serving And Highly Provocative - We have
noted the publication on several websites today
of a letter recently written by Chief Olusegun
Obasanjo to President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.
The Presidency acknowledges that it has indeed
received the said letter from Chief Obasanjo.
We however find it highly unbecoming,
mischievous and provocative that a letter written
by a former Head of State and respected elder
statesman to President Jonathan has been
deliberately leaked to the mass media in a
deplorable effort to impugn the integrity of the
President and denigrate his commitment to
giving Nigeria the best possible leadership.
While many patriotic, objective and well-meaning
Nigerians have already condemned the leaked
letter as self-serving, hypocritical, malicious,
indecent, and very disrespectful of the highest
office in the land, President Jonathan has
directed that none of his aides or any
government official should join issues with Chief
Obasanjo over it.
The President himself will, at the appropriate
time, offer a full personal response to the most
reckless, baseless, unjustifiable and indecorous
charges levied against him and his
administration by the former Head of State.
