Former President Olusegun Obasanjo today escalated his
rejection of President Goodluck Jonathan’s second term
bid by declaring his current mindset to be “Anything But
Jonathan” (ABJ).

meeting t his hilltop mansion in Abeokuta
He expressed his feelings to several of his aides following
a late evening meeting with President Jonathan at his
home in Abeokuta. Both men were in the presence of
Pastor Adejare Adeboye, the General Overseer of the
Redeemed Christian Church of God, and Bishop David
Oyedepo of Winner’s Chapel.
To make matters worse, a few hours after meeting with
Jonathan, Obasanjo met with leaders of the All People’s
Congress (APC) and their presidential candidate,
Muhammad Buhari, where he affirmed he will support the
best candidate regardless of party affiliation.
Jonathan’s closed-door meeting with Obasanjo clearly
failed to soften the former leader’s hostility towards his
floundering re-election bid as Obasanjo bluntly told him
that having referred to him as a “tout”, it was hypocritical
for Jonathan to turn around to describe him as the best
president Nigeria ever had. It would also be recalled that
two months ago, presidential adviser Doyin Okupe gave
Jonathan that honor.
On Sunday, as he received members of the Northern Elders
Council in Abuja, an angry Mr. Jonathan had in a barely-
veiled description of Obasanjo, dismissed him as a
statesman.
“Some people call themselves statesmen but they are not,
they are just ordinary politicians,” Jonathan told his
guests. “To be a statesman is not because you have
occupied a big office before, but the question is what are
you bringing to bear? Are you building this country or are
you a part of people who tell lies to destroy the country?”
Upon arriving at the meeting with Obasanjo today,
Jonathan tried to turn on the charm, lavishing praise on
Obasanjo as he blamed the escalation of attacks on him
as the work of his (Jonathan) aides.
President Obasanjo apparently did not buy any of the
goods Jonathan was hawking. Shortly after the encounter,
he told his aides he would not change his position on
Jonathan’s presidential bid.
Obasanjo’s subsequent and open display of affection
towards the APC leadership is reportedly sending shock
waves up and down Jonathan’s camp, where it is regarded
as confirmation that the conciliation efforts with Obasanjo
have collapsed, leaving him in grave political danger with
the election just one month away. It will be the first time a
PDP candidate tried to win the presidency with Obasanjo
not the candidate, or firmly on his side.
SaharaReporters has also learnt that before the meeting
with Buhari today in Abeokuta, the former president had
written a letter to Buhari to smoothen their relationship.
