Nothing bars him from contributing now. The Boko Haram crisis should have been controlled like the Shiite crisis but Yar'adua wasn't a military man and knew little about how dangerous the group was.

On Sharia there was nothing Obasanjo could do.

Sharia is in the constitution. (How it got there is a long story that dates back to the late 1970's and the arguments over it at the Constituent Assembly that was drawing up the 1979 constitution, and also dates back to the 1950's when the Northern region put in place a sort of muted version of sharia...)..so the only way it could be 'removed' is by an ammendment. (which is a long drawn out process.).

Anyway, the law on Sharia is a compromise. IT left the matter to the states...in essence guaranteeing states like Sokoto and Kano that are over 90% Muslim got it, while states like Kogi and Kwara (where both governors, who were muslim at the time, both openly said they won't implement Sharia)..didn't. It was a compromise of sorts.(It also prevented Sharia from being implemented nationally..ie every state must have a Sharia court)

Also, what happened in Zamfara and other states was that Sharia was extended to criminal law (prior to 1999, Sharia only was for personal law..eg family issues , divorce, etc)
Very Enlightening but Obasanjo looked the other way when he could have nipped it in the bud. But being a politician who needed votes in the upcoming elections he did otherwise.

I say this often and people argue with me unnecessarily and quote how OBJ was a wicked person and all sorts.
What Nigeria lack is strong and effective leadership. Not today, been for a long time. Gowon, Murtala, and OBJ seems to be the only ones that have been able to provide it, despite their individual faults.

Your tribalism or religion bigotry will not allow you to agree with what ffk said.
Maiduguri would have been military state by now with no bias.

What can he do differently? It's easier said when you are not in government. Was it not during his time the militants were having smooth operations in Niger Delta? Oil bunkering was the most lucrative theft. Sometimes, when people like Reno, FFK, Kanu, Fayose and the likes talk, I just shake my head.

Ever since the failure of Atiku to become President of this country, have you ever heard from Reno? The sponsorship is over.

Insecurities would have being the thing of the past if not for political reasons. Besides, where do they get their Guns and logistics from? People that doesn't have free movement.
Abegi! Na one Political element dey sponsor them jor.

Now you perfectly defined OBJ as the coward he is. Under his watch, He allowed them install sharia law which is the foundation of today's problem. A whole general like him couldn't stop the nonsense. He even went to Kaduna and was insulting the CAN Chairman, calling him an Idiot in the peak of the crisis. Coward baba.
He was only good at the massacre of defenceless in Odi and Zaki biam. Here He is, claiming super.

He is like a deaf and dumb man now under PMB. If he repeats that nonsense allegations he made under GEJ, he will just have a repeat of the Holiday in Abacha's Gulag.
I am still waiting for the trained snipers that he accused GEJ of.

OBJ was d commander in chief of weakling. He bowed to the pressure of sharia riot. He didn't send the army to quell the nonsense. He was afraid. The soldiers went for police duty there. He hastily sent soldiers to kill innocent pple in Odi and Zaki biam and he is being hailed as super man.
Yaradua(rip), d master of rule of law was the bae. He pursued them to their mother's womb. He rolled out the tanks. Terrorists' Compound were even shelled. He put a stop to it. There was peace for sometime. Some section of the media were even criticizing the way he dealt with BH.
On the other hand, he gave d Niger Delta militants amnesty, because he knew they were fighting a just cause. He was so an upright man.
When BH started again under GEJ, he was determined to do them in. Ihejirika bulldozed them in Bama, Baga etc and was sending them on a fast retreat to the desert. Then the blackmailers OBJ, Northern Elders, tinubu and co, bh sympathizers started attacking him... He back paddled and brought in Minimah, who was just flowing with the tide.

If this government is sincere, they should apply Yaradua formula. The silent majority of Hausa Fulani Muslims are BH sympathizers.

Learn to ask questions.

1. You breed insecurity when you dont allow the votes of people to count and institutionalise rigging through the use of the Armed forces.

2. You breed insecurity when you dont allow the rule of law.

3. You breed insecurity when you institutionalised corruption.
The 3rd third agenda and the bribery of the lawmakers.

4. You breed insecurity when you manipulates the masses against a government simply because of selfish interest. " anything but Jonathan "

5. You breed insecurity when you violates human right. The Odi massacre. Summary execution of Mohammed Yusuf etc.

I can go on and on, Obj refused to strengthen the foundation of our democracy.
Once again learn to dialogue.

FFK, there is some sense in what you say, but I disagree with your line of reasoning. Obasanjo dealt with problems at the early stages before they became too large for him. This is what a tactician would do.

Boko Haram is now a behemoth and anyone would have a hard time dealing with it. The United States have been in Iraq and Afghanistan for how long now? Guerilla warfare is not easy to prosecute. I do think our military is underestimating Boko Haram.

Is it not under the same Obasanjo that insecurity was at its peak in Niger Delta? Did he eradicated it before he left?

Is it not under obasanjo that state of emergency was declared in Pleatue state and I think Benue state because of insecurity? Did he eradicate it?

Was it not under obasanjo that there were multiple Ethnic Riot was happening in Lagos, Delta state, Asaba?

Was it under obasanjo that anambra was deadly for its insecurity?

Mtchew! Make una give FFK him smoke abeg

shut up Mumu can compare the terrorism then to now, the militants had an agenda unlike the foolish breed of terrorists we have now, obj would never hesitate to deal with them but seems you weren't just born during his tenure so what do u know
