“Some Yoruba have come to me and said you didn’t do enough for the Yoruba. I said, ‘Yes, did I do for Nigeria?’ They said, ‘You did?’ I asked, is Yoruba not part of Nigeria? If I did as I could for Nigeria and Yoruba are part of Nigeria, then I have done for the Yoruba as well as I have done for Igbo, Hausa and so on. I think that must guide us."

Words on Marble!!!... Buhari should please read this.

He knows most Nigerians have 2kb of memory space.

The only Nigerian president that erected a Presidential library in his name while still in office.

We won't talk about the 16BILLION DOLLARS meant for electricity which disappeared without trace.

And we won't mention the Ghana-must-go bags distributed to the National Assembly members to help with his third term agenda.

No, we won't mention the rigging of various elections in the country during his time to help perpetuate him in government.

Just as we won't mention the killing he and members of the National Assembly made when GSM was just being introduced to Nigeria.

A man who just came out of prison, penniless and straight to presidency suddenly became the richest African president barely 8 years after.

How about your third term failed interest? Saint OBJ we salute you o...if u had done exactly like you are saying, why didn't we become like Singapore under Lee Kwan Yew. You think you are talking to children who wear pampers? Nonesense.

Let us be constructive in our analysis. Yes they were flaws in his administration but Obj remains the best Nigerian president since Democratic dispenstaion.

and as a man, I have no penis.

What an old idiot.

I was old enough to know what happened to the funds pumped into the power sector. I was old enough to know what happened to his 3rd term agenda and what led to it.
I was old enough to know how this man selectively pursued fighting corruption and most importantly I was old enough to know how this man (through another messed up motherf**ker called Maurice Iwu Prof) oversaw the mass rigging and manipulation of elections in the country in 2003 and 2007.

Did Lee achieve the Singapore of his dream within the same framework as Obj Lee was in charge of the country for not less than 30 years. More importantly, every Singaporean was queueing behind his policy religiously. Take it or leave it, Obj did his best for the interest of the nation without any sentimental coloration. And as we can see today, with the circumstances at hand, Obj still remains the President to beat in the history of Nigeria.

OBASANJO the useless ex-president.
Pride and stubbornness didn't allow to add any value to the country.
Ghana must go president.



The only he has to his name is GSM.
This is an achievement anyways because, gms ONLY came during his regime and not that he was responsible for the achievements.
