Kashamu Vows To Press Criminal Charges Against Obasanjo Over Book Launch by chesterlee(m): 10:52am On Dec 10, 2014
Chairman of organisation and Mobilisation
committee of the People's Democratic Party in South
West, Prince Buruji Kashamu has vowed to press
criminal charges against former President, Chief
Olusegun Obasanjo.
Kashamu in a press statement he personally signed
yesterday, said, he would drag Obasanjo and other
people who assisted him in the launch of his
autobiography; My watch, after he had been barred
by a court from launching it before the court.
A court had ruled that, Obasanjo should not launch
his autobiography titled My watch, which is believed
to have criticised the government of President
Goodluck Jonathan and other past governments.
Obasanjo was also reported to have condemned the
action of the PDP for making Kashamu a leader of the
party in South West despite his alleged involvement
in hard drugs overseas.
But, the former President was said to have gone
ahead and make the book public, the action ,
Kashanu, described as contempt of court.
According to him,Chief Olusegun Obasanjo's action
has again confirmed his knack for lawlessness and
arbitrariness. Everybody knows that good
governance is based on the Rule of Law, due process
and respect for constituted authority.
" It beats my imagination that this man can be
sermonising about the good governance when he
shamelessly advertises all the elements of bad
governance. In short, he is bad governance
personified.
" He is the worst advertisement for the product he is
trying to advertise - good governance. He has shown
that he does not have respect for the judiciary, and
that he is above the law.
"But I ask my lawyers to press criminal contempt
charges against him and all those who assisted him
in flouting the orders of the court. I will ensure that
they are all dragged before the court, and
particularly, Obasanjo, without his cap, to show why
he should not punished for criminal contempt.
"By his unruly conduct, Chief Obasanjo has shown
for the umpteenth time that he is indecent and
uncivilised. Certainly, President Goodluck Jonathan
and his predecessor, the late President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua and others he criticised in the controversial book, which I am reliably informed he did not write, are made of a sterner stuff than him. They are true democrats and gentlemen to the core.
