Hypocritical former president Olusegun Obasanjo wrote yesterday to President Muhammadu Buhari complaining about all manner of ills plaguing Nigeria from insecurity to unemployment to incompetence. He wrote a similar letter in January last year.

Obasanjo would like Nigerians to ignore the role he played in Buhari winning the (s)election in 2015. That role included presenting Buhari as capable of dealing with Nigeria’s problems and writing an 18-page letter to then incumbent Goodluck Jonathan in 2013, complaining about the very same issues that Buhari has failed to remedy. Obasanjo also contributed in foisting Jonathan on Nigerians.

Obasanjo was president from 1999 to 2007, a period in which he did very little to curb the challenges he is now in the business of writing letters about. In fact, Nigeria’s literary giant Chinua Achebe was moved to write Obasanjo about his misrule when he tried to honour Achebe with a national award in 2004.
