I'M NOT AN EX MILITARY MAN BUT A FORMER MILITARY MAN- OBASANJO TELLS A MAN

I'm not an Ex-military man, I am a former military man- Obasanjo tells a man who called him an ex-military man I'm not an Ex-military man, i am a former military man- Obasanjo tells a man who called him an ex-military man. The man went ahead to tell the former president that he is a compelling writer and he's written to many people, Obansanjo turned to him again to ask him if he has ever written to him, they all laughed.

How easy does it always sound to call people who would probably be your grand parents 'fool'.
You can reproof them without going this low.
Please don't pick offense in this, but we need to work on it.

NO. ex means dismissed or resigned from force.
former means discharged honourably or retired by rules.


J111333:
Lol, it's a tricky one here.

Ex and former basically mean the same thing but in some branches of military especially Navy, ex is used more to describe a dishonorably discharged soldier while former is used to describe a well served soldier.

Baba is kinda right with his own reasons besides, former is more formal.

Such a lively man...

Everyone around Obasanjo and Buhari seem to always laugh , I wonder if it's their sense of humour or eye service

.
Eye service, in this part of the world, people tend to do that around anyone with some sort of power or higher up position.

Former or ex, what we all understand is that you are no longer a military man. You are even a ex- and former president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria

You can go and return your mum's phone now.

While doing that ask her how Obasanjo brought in the internet that you are using and upgraded the local content which part of it is the bbnaija and afrobeats music that the youths today are using as their last string of survival.

When elders are talking keep quiet and listen, you will learn more.
