Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, has denied the allegation that he is supporting the re-election bid of President Muhammadu Buhari.

In a press statement by his media aide Mr Kehinde Akinyemi on Wednesday in Ogun State, he described the report as malicious and unfounded.

He also denied the claim that Obasanjo met with some leaders of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) on Tuesday at his house in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

Akinyemi said his boss was neither in Abuja on May 1 nor does he own a house in the Federal Capital Territory, as he usually stays in a guest house or hotel anytime he visits.

The media aide maintained that the position of the former president remains unchanged as stated in a statement he issued on the state of the nation in January.

According to him, Nigerians know that Obasanjo has only spoken the truth about poverty and would continue to exercise his right to free speech.

The statement read: “In this desperation, everything is fair, including telling libellous lies against persons and institutions, instead of addressing the fundamental issues of statecraft and economic management.

“In the last 24 hours, the internet has been bombarded with deliberate falsehoods aimed at hoodwinking the unsuspecting Nigerians to believe that Obasanjo has now supported Buhari for his second term because of some perceived Buhari’s ‘superlative’ performance in his encounter with (U.S. President Donald) Trump during his visit to the White House in Washington D. C.

“From the Buhari/Trump meeting, Chief Obasanjo only saw through three points: One, the US will continue to reduce purchase of crude oil from Nigeria and there is nothing Nigeria under Buhari can do about; two, the US will export agricultural products to Nigeria and Buhari’s government will encourage that; and three – all the killings taking place in Nigeria by herdsmen are being done by expatriates trained by Gadaffi and no Nigerian is to blame and Buhari cannot do anything to stop it.

“For whatever the meeting was worth, President Buhari again bungled another opportunity to self-redeem. Therefore, Chief Obasanjo is more convinced in his statement of January 23rd and will not change his position.

“Chief Obasanjo understands that the internet has good and bad uses. Those abusing the media should desist from this barbaric act as it will only expose them to greater ridicule at the end of the day. Obasanjo will continue to speak out.”

Baba, uptill now we don't have a better choice than Buhari. It may sound bitter but that's the truth. Give me a better Opposition candidate and i tell you, you've got my vote. My PVC IS ALWAYS WITH ME. Till then, I suppose it will be Buhari till 2023! And someone said after Buhari is Osinbajo.

If Obansanjo was this passionate about Nigeria when he was President, Nigeria would have been a paradise!

Idiotic pig of Buhari is talking

OBJ got just one vote at his mission. My one vote is there also to cancel out his vote in 2019. Baba let meet at the poll and stop wailing.

So says the man who wasted eight years of 19 years of our democracy.

The BIG IDIOT who spent $16 billion on electricity but gave us darkness.

The useless man who has no electoral value - he has never won his his local government.

Just like FFK, OBJ only impresses the usual suspects.

Alake of Egbaland has endorsed Buhari

OOni of Ife is for PMB

Oba of Lagos supports Buhari

Alaafin of Oyo will die to have pMB continue.

These are Obas with credibility in Yorubaland. Add the political sagacity of Asiwaju and his lieutenants in the SW, you'll then realize that oBJ is speaking out of FRUSTRATION!

CaptJeffry:
Majority of who?

Just look at you.

My candidate is PMB.

Who is yours?

Mr. Stone.

Great

Ose Baba

Although work may be going underground to oust PMB out of the Aso rock, but with what I can see, they're all still joking. These people need to form a massive coalition against APC if any surprise will happen.
Election is less than a year, the bigwigs should be cross carpeting already, but they don't see any reason to do so because they don't see APC loosing.

remember it is not only you that will vote...it is us the masses....buhari is not good luck.....you are referring to ur fellow ex General....

My mind is made up about kicking all of you out..

Buhari is not just a failure, he is a catastrophe! A natural disaster that must be VOTED OUT by all means next year.

Get your PVC.

Obasanjo we are with you all the way , My mind has been made ups since the December 2015... Obj you shave you flaws but the greatest legacy you leave behind today is joining is as we kick the Dullard out
