the killings of innocent Nigerians in odi was right because your family was not affected abi? The niger delta militants took up arms under his administration what did he do about it? The problem with obj is the same problem the current leaders are having till date, using the military to oppress innocent civilians but, they suddenly run out of ideas when faced with actual military confrontations with radical sects.

Be careful of what you wish for.

Put yourself in the shoes of those people that were Massacred for what they know nothing about.

Obasanjo caused militancy in Delta.
Yaradua caused Boko haram. Sometimes what looks so minor may actually be a symptom of major problem waiting to explode.
Nigerians need to change their mindset. The mindset of 'kill them all' is actually the reason why life has become so cheap today. You might feel safe today but do you know tomorrow?


Are you aware the massacre was done to avoid them growing wings.. Imagine if boko haram was massacre at the early stage wil they have grow this strong

And what positive impact has their visiting given?
They will only visit if they need something in return, else they will not.
The are needed in Syria and Yemen and not in Nigeria.

Idiot like you. OBJ is well recorded be a CIA asset in Nigeria and is one is the primary asset in Africa.

The coming of a president of such stature may have some economic advantage but such is very limited given the Nigerian economy has been able to attract other major player from the German chancellor to the British PM. The fact the Americans are trying to force LGBTQ legislation down our throats and we ain't having it also meant Obama gave us a wide miss during his African tours and we don't give a hoot.

We have China

Not sharing formula, more of trying to unseat obj. Yes obasanjo enjoyed the control bt he worked to make the system better with his powers bt he also tried to eat his cake as have it that’s why a lot of things backfired and didn’t workout. I’m sure they know better now.

Atiku came back and was ready to restructure bt most people don’t want to hear it or can’t trust him, we are resistant to change smtmes. Buhari is scared to restructure also.
Lol!how can you be so vunerable !atiku restructure! seriously?An hausa -fulani will restructure what benefits them?they are the biggest beneficiary of an unrestructured country followed by southeast .GeJ a president that needs restructuring more than anything from South South didn't do it,it's atiku a beneficiary of unrestructured country.how can obj be defying gravity and be trying to make things happen in a unitary system .

Atiku is quite unique tho. Hausa fulani married to Igbo and Yoruba wives. I just know it will take an audacious businessman cum politician to restructure his his country. Jonathan didn’t have the balls now. He didn’t want to offend the North.

Money is shared according to number of states and local government,so you know the north have created. Lot of states and local government,how will they change this restructure .please this people will not do it.if you think like that you will be decieving yourself.look at the work place,from nnpc to all other agencies of government and see the people that work in those places.some govt offices just don't have a need to speak English ,they speak hausa inside the offices.you think they want to loose these advantages.even if you are a PhD ,you will be appointed to support the man with a diploma from a federal government planned training.

Obasanjo is the CIA asset, not the POTUS.

Seems people don't understand what a 'asset' means in the context of international espionage. There is no honour or glamour in snitching on your own people.

You have a point

for many yoruba folks, they prefer tribal centric leader like Awo to a nationalist like Obj...

Which is quite weird if you ask me
We need leaders who would put national interest first

And forget tribal sentiments

cool


Even. Queen Elizabeth visited him.

Obasanjo's only mission in Nigeria as sent by the western world(through several training in England, US and India), was simply to keep Nigeria Underdeveloped by blocking all progress in the power sector, Encouraging bad governance through imposition of weak presidential candidates and making sure Nigeria never get to develop ajaokuta steel complex

Anytime Obasanjo ask Graduates to go back to farm in modern terms i laugh, western world wants you as farmers and their kids as manufacturer. While you work on cotton platation, kardashian sisters become billionare fashion mogul without even knowing how cotton plant looks like, or know how to actually sow cloths

Egypt added 12000megawatts of electricity to their grid in just 3 years without nuclear or coal they now export electricity to ethopia earning cool forex, Obasanjo dribble us on electricity for 8 years his stooge played us and sold Nepa to people who intentionaly wont give meters or transformers, and forced independent power plant owners to serve the national grid or loose their license. There by fufilling western cardinal agenda of non competitive Nigeria.



Nigerians are the main reason why Nigeria is underdeveloped

Simple and short


Having so many barbaric,uneducated, archaic citizens in one space can never translate into having a develped country.

And to make matters worse


the educated and useful and exposed folks that could help the country are fleeing in droves

China moved 400millon people out of poverty ,it cannot be the people but the choices made by the leaders at every given time.

Bede2u:
this coming from a yoruba bigot like u is very deep.
I have been thinking to myself why nigerians prefer their ethnic champions to their nationalistic heroes.

Igbos prefer ojukwu to zik
Hausa prefer buhari to yaradua
Yoruba prefer tinubu and awo to obj

Shame on all of us. Until we stop being igbo hausa yoruba and start being nigerians, we would still be one of the worst countries in africa. Never mind the world undecided

You have made a very valid point

This is systematic,the Western nigeria had to wait for the rest to do catch-up.under a regional arrangement,your region concentrates on the type of education it's needs .jamb was used to destroy the educational system.And again some politicans profit from high literacy rates amonst their population to political and economic gains.
