. Obasanjo said, “There is still no substitute for democracy when all is said and done. It fosters peace. It builds and does not destroy. It unifies, rather than divides.
“But all these can only happen if democracy is in the hands of democrats. If it is in the hands of thieves and hooligans, they can use it as a weapon. We should ensure hooligans don’t get it.”

Obasanjo warns against handover of Nigeria to thieves, hooligans

The echoes of the 2015 presidential election won by President Muhammadu Buhari reverberated on Tuesday as former President Goodluck Jonathan presented his book, ‘My Transition Hours,’ to the public in Abuja.

Dignitaries that included Buhari, former Heads of State in Nigeria and West Africa, former ministers and traditional rulers took turns to shower encomiums on the former President for conceding defeat in the election.

Buhari was represented by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha.


Jonathan himself admitted that some unnamed individuals both in Nigeria and outside the country expressed surprise at his decision.

He said the people concerned kept asking him why he would allow the result of the election to stand without contesting it in court.

But his guests took turns to commend him for the decision which they said led to the peace the nation currently enjoys.

Jonathan said the twin issue of Boko Haram insurgency and the abduction of Chibok girls were used against him during elections.

Jonathan said, “Whenever I travelled out, people asked me, ‘why did you concede defeat, why did you make that phone call. Why didn’t you go to court?’

“The book reviewer has revealed everything and if you read the book, you will understand. The book centres mainly on the election. I mentioned some negative things, it’s like the life of an individual, it can be positive while it can also be negative.

“There were certain issues in government that were used against me during election, like the issue of Boko Haram and the Chibok girls. In fact, some people said I brought Boko Haram to reduce the voting population of the North so that I can win the election.”

He added, “So, I commented on the Chibok girls, it was one of the points that was really used by politicians. Of course, I don’t blame them. Maybe if it was me, I would have done the same thing.

“I also took the issue of corruption so that young Nigerians will understand the issue, where it started if anybody knows. I have made some suggestions to encourage future governments to tackle corruption.

“I also used the opportunity to make a little suggestion about our elections.”

Jonathan raised the alarm over the issue of vote-buying which he said had become scandalous in the country.

He suggested a change in the way polling booths are erected as one of the ways of tackling the problem.

“The issue of vote-buying is becoming scandalous in Nigeria. While inducing candidates is wrong and is criminalised in other countries, in Nigeria it is seen as normal and this is wrong.

“My suggestion is that we should begin to look at the way we build polling booths, we should copy other countries that use public buildings like schools for elections.

“So one school will be one polling unit and it will be easier for the police to police that unit and it will be difficult for someone who is in a classroom to show you his ballot paper since you cannot pay somebody until you have access to see his ballot paper. If we have a polling booth that you cannot access the ballot paper, then the issue of outright vote-buying will reduce,” he said.

Corrinthians:
I knew Ebora of Owu would not disappoint.

When all the commentaries of the event were flowing through, I was just waiting patiently for Baba's. I know say e go make sense wella.

As long as Baba lives, he'd never stand aside and watch pathological crooks and liars like Atiku and his band of bigoted scouts go anywhere near Nigeria's vaults.

These ignorant disrespectful kids here can curse and wail all they want, the deed is already done. It would be easier for a turkey to fly from Adamawa to Lagos than Athiefwku to go close to Aso Rock.




Edit: Obj didn't mention any names but Atikwu thugs seem very angry here. Why?

No failure is deemed fit for the NEXT LEVEL!

Ndolarr:
Obasanjo was simply warning Nigerians not to hand over power to thieves and hooligans! He was obviously not referring to Atiku! No! OBJ can't be asking APC, which he has disparaged many times, not to hand over power to thieves, etc. Trust Baba, he is totally against this government, so he cannot be directing his advice to them. He was simply advising Nigerians. People should use their common sense in interpreting statements from political actors! Commonsense is common afterall!

babyfaceafrica:
lolz..coming from a man who is an alpha thief ...we don't need his advise......like all politicians ,obj is in no position to advise us on who to vote.. what did he achieve during his 8 years rule?.... he is one of the problems if this country

Peacecore:

U were praising him when he falsely endorse Atiku but u have tagged him 'thief' now. Hypocrisy!...
