"I Will Not Back Away From What I Wrote" - Iyabo Obasanjo by pigin: 4:47pm On Dec 19, 2013
According to reports, Senator Iyabo Obasanjo has finally admitted to being the author of the infamous 11-page letter to her father, former president Olusegun Obasanjo.She reportedly spoke to Vanguard yesterday about claimsthat the letter was not written by her.When asked if it was true she never wrote the letter, she says:"No, no, no, that is not true. Howcan you live by social media? Thatis part of the problem with Nigeria, people want to be flying rumours. I have not told anybodyo! It is early morning here and I just woke up and if I were you I would just ignore them," Senator Obasanjo said."People are calling me and tellingme that they called Baba but if I say I am not talking to someone (her father), how can you say youcalled the person and the personwill tell you what is on my mind?"she asked.Giving reasons on why she broke off, she said that after a break from relating with Obasanjo, she found out days ago that her father would not change from the manipulative person she had known all along."The whole of last year I didn't speak to him and I just started speaking to him recently, and thelast time he was trying to manipulate me to say, this, say that. I can't be saying no when you say no."The last time I spoke to him was three days ago and I decided thatI was not going to speak to him again after that. That was the communication through which I realized that this man would never change from manipulations for himself."Dismissing her unsolicited canvassers on social media, she said:"I was surprised that they would say that they called Baba, and I said to myself, are these people mad? How can you call the person that I said I am not talking to, to ask him whether I wrote a letter or not and he is going to speak for me?"Nobody can say that I told him that I didn't write it. I am not a liar. I will not back away from what I wrote and there is nothingthat is there that is a lie. In the last four years how many of themhave spoken to me? They are all mad people," she said.http://m.naij.com/news/54690.html

Vanguard is just trying to save their skin.

We need to see her on video before we can believe any of this hearsay.

I don't care if she wrote it. If PDP continues to tear itself apart like it has been for the past two years, then APC will have an easy time winning in 2015.

Watching OBJ and GEJ fight each other is like manna for the opposition. Let them ride on. grin

They just keep recycling the same silly story with nothing to back it up with.

I though they are giving us the real gist and expose today? What happened to the main gist.


Even the main character is not willing to openly stand by her story. Not that father and daughter wahala is any of our business to start with anyways...

What kind of worthless newspaper be this sef? They think OBJ's family problem is our major and primary headache?


Talk about junk journalism..

isnt this the same type of thing the tabloids feed us with daily- this and that person broke up, then this and that person are back together, or, "he" is about to marry "her", then tomorrow we hear, "they are no longer marrying, who even said they were dating to begin with",

another time its "a beau is in the offing", which later changes to "no beau is anywhere in sight".

its called sensational journalism, people wey dey put mouth, na them be maga.

in any case, am I enjoying nigeria or have i enjoyed nigeria so much to the extent of putting mouth in other people's family matter.

does anybody see me chopping any of nigeria's money?

i no be "ojogbon" to "joko" o. I never reach that level.

It's her choice and freedom anyway with her father who happens to be a former president and highly-visible public figure! I say it's time to move on, its their choice if she washes the dirty linen of her family in public. Eni ti o ba ta ara ile re lopo, ko ni ri ra ni owon! Simple.

BTW, when will the retardeen president respond to the original letter? Yeah right, no response!
Re: "I Will Not Back Away From What I Wrote" - Iyabo Obasanjo by Kponkwem(m): 8:39pm On Dec 19, 2013
And deluded yoruba posters swore that no odua daughter can write such when most of them are from questionable paternity due to unguarded philandering and polygamy.

She has just saved her neck from public disgrace in the courts

What concerns Nigerians in the affairs of father and his daughter? There is their problem.

What concerns us is the that latter OBJ wrote to GEJ - focus on this.

It is now family matters, it is either you did not read the letter or you have failed to understand it.

She pointed out salient issues on his father's dictatorial and promiscuous tendencies as a president, that completely make it abominable for him OBJ to serve as any form of moral role model.

OBJ should be behind bars.

ol' boy, take it easy now. you know slow and steady wins the race.

Are you not aware that the current retard.ed occupant of aso rock is a patient and cautious man (hence he married a patience grin) who ponders thoroughly over every move he makes in his life. At the moment, feelers reaching me from source perpendicular to source adjacent to source within aso rock indicated that the "Oga at the top" is currently selecting a committee of eminent nigerians to study Obj's letter and carry out an all-inclusive investigation into its contents. The committee once inaugurated hopes to submit its report to our shoeless- but-don't-give-a-damn president within 4 weeks.

In short, you should expect a response from oga jonathan (to Obj's letter) by the summer of 2014.................or not at all.
