Obasanjo telling Buhari to fight corruption?
He knew Buhari will come after him. Obasanjo is one of the most corrupt people in Nigeria if not number 1.

januzaj:
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has congratulated the Presidential candidate of the All progressives congress Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd,,) on his victory in the presidential poll, charging him to fight corruption and carry out reforms in different sectors.

The congratulatory message was made available to our correspondent at Abeokuta on Tuesday following Buhari victory in the March 28 presidential election.

Obasanjo, who noted that so much harm had already been done to many national institutions, including the military, however, advised him to be magnanimous in victory.

He said, “With so much harm already done to many national institutions including the military, which proudly nurtured you and me, you will have a lot to do on institution reform – education, healthcare, economy, security, infrastructure, power, youth employment, agri-business, oil and gas, external affairs, cohesiveness of our nation and ridding our land of corruption.

“Your varied and wide experience will undoubtedly stand you in good stead.”

The former president said the country “is blessed with men and women of goodwill, character and virtue across the board that you can mobilise to join hands with you in the reform, repairs and re-direction that will be imperative to put Nigeria back on the fast lane of good governance, unity, cohesiveness, development and progress.”

Obasanjo noted that Buhari’s victory, after three previous unsuccessful attempts, must be a great lesson to himself and for all politicians, particularly in Nigeria.

He said, “For me, the totality of 2015 elections hold many lessons for our democracy and democratisation process, which are both maturing.

“On this occasion, the system has been unnecessarily overheated before and particularly during the campaigns when emphasis was more on trivialities and hate, divisive, undignifying and disrespectful statements and comments rather than on pressing issues requiring attention.

“I know that in victory, you will be magnanimous to start binding the wounds and bitterness occasioned by the campaign and the evil disciples.”

So GEJ dey inside? Because people no gree am sack Jega abi?

I quite agree with the order. If GEJ had rigged to win this election, the whole fire bridge, UN conflict mediation team and Red Cross in the world will relocate to Nigeria in order to stop the war. Let's Thank God for lives and a nation that have been saved by this singular patriotic act of president GEJ.

Its because of this your comment about fathers and respect to elders that makes Nigeria spoilt today. So because he is an old man means we can't talk to him. Is GEJ not up to most of you fathers or elders and you keep calling him names?

Baba Iyabo!!! Abeg put your house in order 1st. As corrupt as you are you brought Yaradua that was 85% gone bcs you wanted who will cover up all you looted from country treasury,

Pls note that if Buhari want to genuinely fight corruption, he will start from Tinubu/Amaechi all the past leader that still alive bcs like the saying that the judgment of God will start from his church. Stop hiding under APC bcs problem of decades can't be turn on GEJ alone. In your 8yrs Rail was not operational, PHCN was las than 2000mw and present 5500mw but no diesel bcs of your planning, power plants in the north/west meaning that close or over the cost of the power plants will be required to lay pipes from Niger delta to locations of this plants. All bcs of politics.

Let's not leave the fight against corruption for only the president (even though APC supporters think he can do it alone)
The president can't be everywhere.

Eliminating corruption is an organic process. Let's embrace honesty and transparency in our individual lives and with time we will see corruption reduced to bear minimum.


Dont tell me that its the Presidents job to

Fight Corruption
Stabilize crude oil price
Make 1 N to 1 dollar
Pay 25 million Nigerians 5,000 naira a month= 1.5 trillion a year angry
Create millions of jobs
Reduce car importation fees (tokunbo) to 20%
Feed primary school children
Create a Graduate scheme for ex corps member
Do a New Second Naija bridge.

Yea I'm in Nigeria. He didn't make them. I'm 100% sure u didn't watch any of the interview videos where he was reported to make the statements. If u had, then u won't be mentioning ur 1 and 2. I guess u just read d lies so many times on nairaland and it became true in ur head. I even offered 10k on nairaland here, to anyone who could quote GMB verbatim on d statements or show me where he said it in d videos. Not a single soul could do it.

Now d lesson is that we should be more transparent n objective in political analysis. That type of mindset is needed for progress.
Peace
