Obasanjo Has Failed Nigeria! by Danmasani(m): 4:38pm On Apr 18, 2007
The advent of democracy in Nigeria in May 1999 brought a lot of hope to the people. Obasanjo, new elected president had just emerged from prison a reformed man or so it seemed after Sani Abacha's persecution. Nigerians regarded him as the Nelson Mandela who will take us out from the chaos, corruption and ineptitude the military left. However Obasanjo has for 8 years revealed to us that he is just another true caricature of a sycopathic african dictator, a ruthless one that even Kim Jong Ill will envy.
This man promised Nigeria all sorts of beautifull things, things he failed to deliver. In 2003, in the interest of giving him another 4 year chance, we voted immensely for him hoping that things will take a change. We have however reached the end of his tenure and all we are beseiged with is corruption of abominable magnitude( despite EFCC), intense poverty, maladministration among others. ASSU has had record numbers of strikes, NEPA has changed names and still cannot make a bulb shine for 12 hours,there is no water, school are in decay, Niger- Delta is restive, roads are debilitating( despite sinking $3 Billion), hospitals are dire--The whole infrastructure and heart of the Nigerian system is crumbling thanks to this man. Even the Super Eagles are messing up due to funds mismanagement among others.
Not done, PDP, INEC and the Nigerian Police decided to hand us to devils last week. From Ekiti to Edo, Osun to Anambra, Rivers to Adamawa, Delta, Bayelsa to Oyo are all tales of immense manipulation of the people's will. The same thing that happened in 2003 is back in full force and more throttle.

Obasanjo can do two things at the moment- Pressure INEC to cancel results in places where elections were rigged, did not take place, voter intimidation rife or immense anomalies were accounted. INEC returned a voter turn-out of 90% for Rivers state-80% which went to PDP. This is indeed the most worst abracadabra ever pulled. Elections must be allowed to happen one more time in those regions and must be free and fair.
Failure to do that before May 29th, 2007 will only confirm to Nigerians and the entire world that he is not only a devil's incarnate, but the worst political leader hellbent in sending his people to the gates of hell.

Shame of you OBJ if you do not act now and fast!

Obasanjo's time as a president came and have gone.
In as much as he made his own mistakes which can never be compared with this present government,he made giant strides in so many areas and improved the quality of the lives of the common citizens of this country. Nigeria was so much united under him.
Obasanjo can forever be remembered for moving Nigeria's economy from one laden with heavy debts to a zero debt free economy, amongst many other giant strides recorded under his presidency.
Tell me one achievement this present government has recorded? I tell you none excerpt of course in the area of propaganda and deceit.

Is OP trying to compare OBJ's to Buhari's democratic rule? If OBJ was a failure Buhari is a disaster.
