Obasanjo had only 25,000.00 naira before he became president. In fact, he was very poor and his farm was almost nonexistent due to lack of funds! He was a failed farmer.

Fast forward to present day, he is the richest ex-president in Nigerian history! His farm was upgraded and it is operational.

He stole a lot of public funds. He was the most corrupt president ever. In fact, he makes Abacha look like a 'petit' thief. Yeah Nigerians are working in the farm though but ur granddad saint abacha took the money overseas we had to involve legal actions before we could get some with stringents condition shame on y'all

Nothing special about those visitations.

The Muritala Mohammed regime already had plans to conduct an election and bring the country to being a democratic country. When Muritala Mohammed was assassinated, Obasanjo came onboard and showed the will to carry on with his ex boss's plan. Of course, Nigeria was a country that everyone believed had the potential to be a great country at that time, so we had many admirers.

Then in 1999, Nigeria returned to civilian rule after 16 years of military rule. Of course, it is expected that all eyes would be on the civilian president who happened to be Obasanjo. With his accomplishment of returning to the country to civilian rule in 1979, it was expected that the world would have a lot of hope in him.

You would see the submissiveness in the body language of GEJ and Buhari with world leaders....

Folding hands , looking down and acting like houseboys.

I wonder what the fvck our protocol officers and aides do.

Someone is supposed to do a review and even show video tapes of what not to be done, etc.

Frankly speaking, Obasanjo is a personality that is well known and respected on the world stage. Little wonder, Nigeria's golden era in foreign policy was during Murtala/Obasanjo regime between 1975 to 1979. That was the period when Nigeria came to limelight and became a voice to reckon with in the international political arena due to radical foreign policy pursued by his regime.
Before he assumed office in 1999, the country was a pariah state, he was able to redeem the country's image and restore its position among the commity of nations. He pursued economic, shuttle, citizenship and military diplomacies. Played leadership role in Africa.
Unfortunately, since his his exit from power in 2007, Nigeria's image has been bartered, even in Africa. Since 1999, no administration has performed in the area of foreign policy, like Obasanjo's.

It depends.

Trump hasn't visited any African country yet. so even IF Obasanjo was in power, a Trump visit might not be on the cards

Plus, Trump appears to be more isolationist than previous American leaders. He would only step out if it is very very important to the US (as he sees it)
It depends...
but if OBJ can host 3 of em, he can do Trump too.

GodPunishBiafra:

This should answer your question:


Those terms, black, white, etc are racists agenda to perpetuate self dominance using the weakness of the human psyche. And they also strengthened this by adding religion to it with the general assumption that "God is white", "angels are white", "white is pure and black is evil", "Satan must be black", "Jesus and Moses are white (according to hollywood), etc. And subconsciously people believed these and started acting it out. Its centuries of mental programming.
I don't necessarily see anything racist about it. Black besides being used to describe evil is also used to describe mystery. Even the holy of holies that only the high priest was allowed to enter was dark/black. The term black and white are nothing but symbols, more so than a political tool. You should be more concerned about why most people are ignorant of this fact. Have you heard of the "Black Madonna"? It is a revered image of Catholicism. I'd say it again, black means to us how we see ourselves. Let's us build ourselves up and stop being ignorant.

So after all these state visits, how have they impacted positively on the masses.

This man has been feeding fat on Nigeria's wealth for a long time.

Meanwhile, bubu after globetrotting round the universe, was only good at attracting South Sudanese, Libya, Chadian presidents etc.. Instead of attracting the likes of Trump, he was declared "lifeless" on national t.v by the same Trump

Bubu is a local champion swears.

This your response doesn't not make any sense.
The person you quoted gave a very valid point of the misconceptions.
Why call Brown black and pale white?
If nothing is truly attached to the colours, why not just call yourself what you are?

Can a human have a black skin (coal) or white skin (snow or cloud)?

As a Christian, can you picture God or Jesus or angels in black or in black clothes?

That's to tell you that it's truly a sentimental tag.
