Protest Rocks Lagos Over Obasanjo's Alleged Plan To Install Interim Govt by ToriTori247: 12:55pm On Jan 25, 2019
A pro-democracy group on Thursday staged a massive rally in Lagos State against the alleged plot by former President Olusegun Obasanjo to install an interim government.

The protest was led by the Coalition for Defence of Democracy in Nigeria (CDDN).

According to the group there is a credible intelligence that Obasanjo political allies we hell bent on making the country ungovernable.

CDDN, therefore, called on the Federal Government drop its tolerant attitude and put the pressure on Obasanjo to immediately call off all the attacks that are planned against the interests of Nigeria


Speaking on behalf of the coalition, Rachel Okpara, Executive Director of CDDN, appealed to the international community to call Obasanjo, Atiku and other incendiary members of the opposition to order before they sink the nation.

Her words, “We are telling the world that there is a credible intelligence that a former president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo is the one that hatched the plan to destroy the country in conjunction with his political allies. It was for this reason that Obasanjo released his so called “POINTS FOR CONCERN AND ACTION,” a document that has now been confirmed as intended to incite Nigerians as a precursor to the orgy of violence that his co-planners will unleash on the country.

“We are also asserting that more than the emergence of an interim government that the federal government refers to, Obasanjo, Atiku Abubakar who is the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate and other opposition elements have their sight on an outright coup to overthrow Nigeria’s democracy. It is for this reason that Obasanjo returned to his vomit after vowing that God will never forgive him if he ever supported Atiku.

“CDDN is not going to adopt the tolerant indifference that the Federal Government is showing to a threat of this magnitude, which with all certainty will throw the nation into chaos. The Federal Government might be worried about being described as clamping down on dissent and the opposition but we have no such political tightrope balancing to do. We see things from the perspective of the immediate and long term impact on citizens. The safety of Nigerians is superior to whatever offices could be won or lost by officials of the federal government.

“He has the links to Boko Haram, Terwase Akwaza (Gana), the miscreants in Kano and the Nigerien mercenaries; he should be persuaded to reel them in so that Nigeria is not plunged into crisis. The federal government omitted to mention them but we are aware that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPoB), a designated terror organization and militants in the Niger-Delta have been contacted by a particular running mate to a presidential candidate to carry out the destabilization in the south-east and south-south.

“CNND hereby puts the groups that have been contracted to carry out these attacks on notice. The will of Nigerians towers above their capacity for evil and the supremacy of the Nigerian state and its capacity to respond to the threat they pose is not in doubt. They have the obvious option of backing down and calling their assigned mission off now before it is too late because Nigerians will support the government to unleash the full strength of the state against these threats even if it means embarking on emergency conscription to defeat evil.

“We appeal to the international community to call Obasanjo, Atiku and other incendiary members of the opposition to order. They should be held responsible since they are the ones that have propping up the groups and individuals named in the planned attacks. The international must make it clear to these elements that any contraption that emerges from truncation of Nigeria’s democracy will not be accepted. They should prevail on Obasanjo and his ilk to desist from the plot to throw Nigeria into chaos.”

It is a pity that OBJ a greedy politician who tried every thing possible to amend the constitution of our great Nation to suit is selfish interest of running for a third term is now accusing someone of being greedy. OBJ a tyrant who ordered the massacre of towns in North central and South south is now calling someone a tyrant. All those old men that see themselves as lord over Nigeria and Nigerians should know that their end near. OBJ who accused someone of being corrupt is now selling the same person to us because of selfish reasons. Let it be known that OBJ was respected by the Yorubas but not anymore. He has lost it, he is a "double mouthed" hypocrite who can't stand by his words. His Ota Farm staff used to be on FG payroll until Buhari stopped it and that is one of the reasons for his bitterness towards Buhari. The same way OBj converted Ota Farm which is suppose to be Nigeria property to his own is the way Bukola Saraki converted Tsonga Farm in Kwara to his own.


Religious and ethnic bigotry have blinded some people to see the truth or perhaps they know the truth and decided to follow the lies.

Even in death, Obasanjo will be accused of trying to influence elections. A man of impeccable achievements and valor. Legends are not made without a stainless record but an act of bravery defines their decades. He may well go down in history as Nigeria's famous president. Tinubu may enjoy the paradigm of a southwest dictator but his maneuvers will never be matched with the likes of Obasanjo. He will never be president grin.

APC's comeuppance is upon them because just as they incited Nigerians against the PDP les government and also threatened to make Nigeria ungovernable in the past is same way they re about feeling the heat now.The table is just beginning to turn and they re wailing already.. They muscled their way into office and forgot that four years ain't eternity..They re about knowing how it feels when majority of a populace are tired of a government that keeps comparing herself with a previous government (which Nigerians felt performed dismally and wasn't up to par) as a basis for their own shortcomings and underperformance(...).They know that the support they enjoyed prior to the last general elections ain't there anymore and the chickens are quickly coming home to roost unless something drastic and urgent is done ...

Is it not shameful and demonic that the anti-corruption government of Buhari and APC are now the ones going about bribing Nigerians with bags of rice and Tradermoni to buy votes?

Nigerians are indeed stupid(including the educated zombies) and deserves the kind of evil leaders they get.
