Breaking News: Obasanjo Pays Surprise
Visit to Jonathan in Nairobi

President Goodluck Jonathan and former
President, Olusegun Obasanjo, had breakfast
together in Nairobi, Kenya, on December 12,
2013, Thursday.
Both politicians were among other African
leaders that graced the 50th Independence
Anniversary celebration of Kenya at the
Safaricom Stadium in Kasarani, Nairobi, on
Thursday, December 12.
Obasanjo's visit was said to have taken
everybody by surprise as it contradicts the
expected nature of the relationship between
both men, owing to recent public criticisms
of the President by Obasanjo.
The unexpected meeting held prior to the
anniversary event, as the former president,
Obasanjo, paid a surprise visit to President
Jonathan at the Intercontinental Hotel,
Nairobi, where they had a private breakfast
together.
Reports say the two politicians had a "fruitful
discussion" after emerging from the meeting
beaming with smiles and sharing a warm
handshake.
It would be recalled that Obasanjo had written
a strong-worded letter, which went public
earlier this week (Wednesday), accusing the
President of performing below par and taking
actions calculated at destroying the country.
The previous meeting between Jonathan and
Obasanjo was on December 10, 2013, Tuesday,
as they attended the memorial held to honor
the life of Nelson "Madiba" Madela, South
Africa's great man of history and world's single
most significant statesman of the last 100
years.
In his speech, President Jonathan called on all
Kenyans to unite. According to him, there was
no alternative to unity if Kenyans must move
their nation forward. In building their nation,
Jonathan told Kenyans that they must make
unity their focal point.
He said that the destiny of Kenya lies with its
people and as such, the people must strive
hard to take their country to a greater height.
President Jonathan said that he was happy that
former Kenyan Prime Minister, Raila Odinga
was present at the event and working with
President Uhuru Kenyatta.
"Nobody can love you more than
Kenyans, so you all have to jointly
develop your country. All Kenyans should
come together to form an inclusive
society.
"Since 2007, many African countries like
Kenya have been celebrating 50 years of
independence and freedom, our founding
fathers talked of political freedom to be
followed by economic freedom.
"The present generation of African leaders
must work hard on science and
technology as well as industrialisation, so
that there could be economic
development and freedom." President
Jonathan stated.
Obasanjo was said to have sat quietly during
the event and was making calls on his mobile
phone at intervals while the event lasted.

OBJ is suffering from Alzheimer's Dementia!
He quickly forgot

The more reason we should be careful about buying over issues that primarily do not capture the need or interest of the common man in the street. These people have a way of balancing their political equation and keep their pockets in perpetual equilibrium!

A Yoruba proverb says,"When you slap a Child with the right hand,you draw him close and pet it with the left".

Obasanjo has shown Jonathan what he means by "carrot and stick approach"!!!

As for me , Naijiriya na my country and I must to do better for am.

This is misleading..... I think

OBJ specifically bought ticket to go see Jonathan in Nairobi?!
