Reactions Of Pres Jonathan & Femi Fani- Kayode To Obj's Dismerbership From PDP by Vibesking(m): 9:29pm On Feb 16, 2015
ABUJA – President Goodluck Jonathan, yesterday, described former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s attacks on him as the
consequence of his failure to surrender his administration to the former leader.
Responding to the tirades of the former president last week, President Jonathan said Obasanjo was so bent on controlling his
protégées that he would not mind installing the devil in power so long as he can control him.
Meanwhile, it was learned at the weekend that the Presidency and the Peoples Democracy Party, PDP, have decided to pull back from earlier plans to sanction Obasanjo
over his perceived anti-party activities. Besides, there were indications that Obasanjo’s support among some northern
governors, who deferred to him in the past, may be waning. One serving northern governor in the PDP known as an Obasanjo
associate, weekend, flayed the former president for crossing the line in his attacks on the president and party.
Jonathan and Obasanjo Addressing journalists, yesterday, in Abuja, Director, Media and Publicity of PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani- Kayode stressed that soon after Jonathan won the 2011 elections, the former president tried everything possible to control and teleguide him, adding that he asked the President to do a number of things that were simply wrong and unacceptable to a government with plans for the people.
Why Obasanjo is attacking Jonathan
He said: “After Jonathan came to power, Obasanjo not only tried to control and teleguide him, but he also asked him to do a number of things that were simply wrong
and unacceptable. It is for President Goodluck Jonathan himself to divulge those things and I am sure that he will do so at
the appropriate time.
“Needless to say President Jonathan refused to be teleguided and told what to do though at all times he showed Obasanjo maximum respect and accorded him all the privileges, access and courtesies that are due to a former Head of State and a father and mentor. This continued to be the case even after Obasanjo consistently attempted to
undermine his government and ridicule his efforts.
“Yet President Obasanjo could not be appeased and was not satisfied. As far as he was concerned, he must either control
Jonathan or Jonathan had to go. That is why he decided to secretly support the APC and became their ‘navigator in chief’. He was
determined to pull the whole house down rather than allow Jonathan to return to power. This is simply because he believes
that if he cannot control someone, that person must be destroyed. Control and domination is an obsession for Obasanjo.
That is the bottom line. He is prepared to put even the devil in power provided he can control him,” Fani-Kayode, who also served President Obasanjo as a senior special assistant (public communication) and laterAviation Minister said.Genuine democracy
“Obasanjo does not want genuine
democracy. He only pretends to want it. What he wants is control and a stooge in power. It does not matter what type of government it is as long as he controls it
and it is headed by his puppet. It can be a military government, a civilian one, a democratic one, an interim government or a government of National Unity. To Obasanjo, it does not matter as long as he can control it. That is his objective. That is why he hates
Jonathan so much and that is why he wishes to stop him at all cost.
“The bottom line is this: President
Obasanjo’s grouse with President Jonathan is personal and it has nothing to do with Nigeria. He should leave Nigeria out of it and
let us all be. If he has a personal score to settle with Jonathan, he should not do so at the expense of the peace and stability of
Nigeria. “If he wants to stop Jonathan, then let him attempt to do so through the democratic process and through the ballot box and not through foul and unconstitutional means. We said it before and we will say it again:
Gone are the days that any president can be teleguided and controlled because we have all come of age. “President Olusegun Obasanjo’s allegations are serious and grave. They are also reckless. He has raised issues and made
assertions that are capable of derailing our democracy and creating chaos in the land.
