Obasanjo wouldn't have waited for Nigerians to beg and ask him to address them before doing so. Obasanjo had regular and interesting media chats while he was president.
Yes he be rude and uncouth sometimes, but he never had to wait to be asked to do something before doing it.
Obasanjo never outsourced governance, he took charge even if he didn't always got it right but at least he never shirk from his responsibilities.
Again, Obasanjo never compared himself with anyone, he took responsibility for his failings, he never blamed Abdulsalam Abubakar or the larger military community (which he's part of anyway).
Buhari on the other is an irresponsibly clueless manager always looking for who to blame.

It's obvious that Femi Adesina has lost his senses. So Apc has now started shifting their blame games from GEJ to OBJ.
OBJ is not a saint but trust me, he is 1000% better than that lifeless illiterate vegetable we have in Aso-Rock in terms of leadership.
THE FACT THAT FEMI IS NOW ATTACKING OBJ HIS ELDER & KINSMAN INORDER TO DEFEND HIS FULANI PAYMASTERS IS THE HIGHEST OF HIS MADNESS.
God bless you immediately. To call Femi a mad man may even be an insult to mad people everywhere.

Why do you Yoruba Muslims hate OBJ so much? How did he offend you people?

Omooba77:
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, has faulted those demanding that the President, Maj.Gen Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), addresses Nigerians on the COVID-19 pandemic.

Adesina said this in an article titled, ‘If you can’t take blows brother, don’t throw blows’, which was posted on his Facebook page.

He said if it were former President Olusegun Obasanjo that was still in power, he would have insulted those calling on him to address them.

Adesina was reacting to the criticisms he received from a large section of Nigerians over his outing during a programme on 95.1 Nigeria Info FM Abuja.

Many Nigerians slammed Adesina for saying the fact that they voted for Buhari didn’t give them the right to order him around.

Obasanjo is better than Buhari .Even if NIGERIANS complain about something, the way he jokes during his chat gives fun to even to the doubting Thomases. Within his first tenure he improved Nigerians livelyhood and has given the common man the right to own mobile phone as well as settle debts. But give us one achievement of Buhari.

festacman:
1. Femi Adesina's mention of Obasanjo's name is unnecessary, unprofessional and likely to generate avoidable controversy.

2. The truth is GIFT OF THE GAB is not Pres. Buhari's forte. It is only a big fool who would open up his flanks for unnecessary attacks by displaying his weaknesses rather then amplifying his strengths. That's the simple reason why Paul of defunct Psquare group would dance less and sing more in their heyday.

3. Having sworn to uphold the constitution of Federal Republic of Nigeria, there is no where it is specified in the constitution the mode through the president should communicate to Nigerians. It is left to the president to decide. So Pres. Buhari has committed no constitutional breach by adopting address rather than interactive chat.

4. If eloquence during presidential chats is a key criteria for excellent leadership, then the past leaders wouldn't have left Nigeria as degenerated and violated inspite of our oil-rich status.

5. Most young Nigerians are too emotional and often do shadow-chasing, overlooking the substance. Suave and smooth talking leaders excite us and they smartly use our feel-good state to ride on us as they smile to foreign banks.

Re 4 and 5, You would have had a point if things were actually running smothly with the president's 'style'.

3- We can't use the constitution as a getaway here. The fact is a Leader(and who bigger than a country's president) needs to be a good communicator and be seen to lead and motivate. In times of crisis is when this is needed the most. Unfortunately, Buhari's style is a better fit for a finance minister who doesn't really need to be seen.

lol, this guy forgets there is tomorrow. last time i checked, obasanjo appeared on this programme on NTA. I think it was once a month, i can't remember the name of the programme, he addressed the nation from time to time, obj was proactive and when there was need to increase fuel price, he does it live, he doesn't hide behind anyone, he was a president willing to speak when arriving Nigeria from a trip or when going.......Obj wasn't perfect, no far from it, but we knew we had a President who doesn't take bullshit from anyone. We had better relationships with so many countries, he wasn't a tribal idiot.........and his team speaks for him till date. What a president we had, look at our exchange rate back then even with lower price of crude internationally. If we couldn't get Obj pro max, a better version of him, we could have at least gotten obj lite, comparing obj to buhari is like Cristiano Ronaldo and victor moses......long ................... .........distance.

I don't like insulting leaders but don't know what to do with these incompetent backward unceremonious people especially this Femi.

His mouth stinks and his word's stench can cause uproar in a market place like Oyigbo market.

Has he seen anyone to remind him how efficient , up-to-date, brash in all aspects and how prompt Obj was?

Obj would even not wait for people to talk before he would address us.

He is that pragmatic. The man even loved be heard always. He loved the press alot.

Did Femi remember that Obj started the town Hall monthly meetings where major stations of the TVs and Radios would transmit it live, where all the the FEC especially the ministers and sometimes Govs would meet and give us updates on the goings. He would fondly call them by their portfolios. E.g Agric.

Some state govs like Olagunsoye Oyinlola, Fayose In the South even borrowed same lieqves in their respective states.

Femi has no more wisdom required of a leader left in him. He is blinded and tired. Suffering from work's pressure hallucinations!
