Lanre Issa-Onilu, spokesman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says former president Olusegun Obasanjo is haunted by his actions while in office, especially with regards to the conduct of elections.

Issa- Onilu said Obasanjo “would realise that he is not God” after the presidential election.

He was reacting to allegations by Obasanjo that the APC-led federal government had concluded plans with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to rig the elections.

“For eight years of Obasanjo in office, all the elections he held, infact, government policies were determined by whatever mood he found himself,” the APC spokesman said on Sunday.

“All the institutions of government were brought under his wings and what he did for those eight years is what is haunting him.

“He cannot imagine that a government will allow INEC the statuary independence that it has. We have had 93 elections or more since APC came to power, and you can be sure that all those elections were conducted without government interference.

“We can understand where the former president is coming from, his past is haunting him, he imagines that perhaps the way he did it is the same way we will do it.”

The APC spokesman advised Obasanjo to adjust himself to the reality of an imminent defeat.

“He has carried himself about as the dispenser of our destiny and God is showing him clearly that he has just only been lucky,” he said.

“And the favour that God has done to him, he now considers as the things that are coming from him.

“I think it is time for him to smell the coffin, this election will come and it will be free and fair, APC does not have any reason to rig it.”

Issa-Onilu said the presidential debate missed by President Muhammadu Buhari was only important to those seeking power.

“The president does not have to give reason for now attending that debate,” he said.

“Let me reiterate like I have said earlier, the debate is just one of several platforms for our candidate to engage with the public. We pick the platforms that are impactful and we are the one to determine which one we want to use.

“Debate with who? That’s an insult. That the president will come and debate with who? The debate the president is having is what he did in Niger state – [Niger people] can look to a brighter future. The people of this country, everywhere they go they see development, they can see projects going on. So these are the debates that the president is already engaging with the public.

“That particular debate could be important and I think it is important to those seeking power not somebody who has has a lot speaking for him already.”

OBJ didn't like Buhari regime.... just because the Buhari had put an end to the hypocrisy of may 29 which was proclaimed by Olusegun obasanjo regime, by recognizing june 12 as democracy day .

and obasanjo's xtian name isnt ezra or paul, how com he writes so much

Obasanjo is the worst thing to happen to Nigeria. Devil in human form

We are still awaiting buhari's response. All these are mere noisome pestilences

After Feb 16, Obasanjo would have lost the little relevant he has in Nigeria politics

Obasanjo and his state governor are not on the same page politically
Most of Obasanjo's children are supporting different candidates.
Obasanjo supporting a minority candidates.

The end shall justify the means.

.

Truth is bitter I know.
After the election all I know is that we are gonna welcome and give support to the winner. Period

some idiots are shouting buhari is giving looters night mare... I laugh... These so called looters have enough money to survive the drought for another 4 long years and even more... but most Nigerians shouting say buhari are too dumb or too indoctrinated to know the truth even if it slaps them smack dab in their face....

By the time they realize it.... It will be too late....

Most of the hardcore BMC on Nairaland don't live in Nigeria.... They are spilling venom from the comfort of another man's country and likewise most apc politicians here in Nigeria .. They all know the truth but can't talk because they would go hungry or worse...


Ameachi is a good example... If not for the leaked tapes....

I don't even care who wins.... How ever long.. It takes, it will still become history!!!

APShit is a failed party already.


Sensible Nigerians are tired of your administration

Gehn Ghen, after the election they will crack down on OBJ

This senile old fool that was playing God then is advising another not to now.
