Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo
will today formally enrol as a
graduate student at the
headquarters of the National Open
University of Nigeria in Lagos.
He is returning to the classroom for
a higher degree in Christian
Theology.
Having obtained a Post Graduate
Diploma in 2009, the Owu-born high
chief will now be working towards a
doctorate degree, beginning first
with a Masters degree.
Obasanjo told news site, Premium
Times that he was going back to
school because it was important for
him to make some commitments
towards achieving his aspirations in
life.
“I’m going back to school because I
need something to aspire to in every
endeavour of life”, he explained
“I always aspire to something new in
my farm. I do that in my
international activities. I do it in my
writing. I do it in the improvement
of my academic work which helps to
sharpen my brain and strengthen my
faith.”
On combining his studies with his
tight international engagements, the
former Nigerian leader said he would
take advantage of the flexibility of
the Open University’s system.
“Fortunately, the Open University is
flexible enough and I will definitely
be able to cope. I was able to cope
when I did the Post Graduate. I was
also busy during the period”, he
said.
The National Open University was
initially established in 1983 but was
suspended by the then military
government in 1984. Obasanjo
resuscitated it in 2001.
In November 2006, a few months to
the end of his eight-year tenure, the
then president enrolled for a post
graduate diploma in Christian
Theology at the university.

Since his plans to become a life-president of nigeria didn't pan out well, being a theologian might just make him the life-pastor of some suggestible nigerians..
