How many of you have read the story of
Obasanjo
His father,
Their church in Abeokuta and the
The Igbo Trader
that sold a piano for OBJ's father church and OBJ was used as a collateral to work with the igbo trader for 2 years just to pay in workmanship for the piano?
All these happened when he was less than 12 years old.
And it ended well for everyone involved, OBJ, His father, their church and the Igbo Trader.....

But the story did not end there.......
It is still ongoing till this present day.
God is wonderful!

This is one of the complaints of that platform.

They go to NNP and take materials and not credit the source. It is akin to intellectual fraud.

What happened to Oluremi?? Why did Baba use Stella as his first lady in 1999?

I learnt Stella was the only person visiting him when he was jailed by Abacha. She was the only person running around talking to people to help get him out. As God would have it, Abacha died and he was released and ran for president. So he chose her.

I don't know if it's true but that's what I heard back then.

They had divorced before 1999. It was a very stormy marriage.


(The reason that I remember the issue of the divorce is because of the crazy rumour that was circulating back then grin. The rumour was that Obasanjo appeared in court for the divorce proceedings and he was asked if he wanted to swear with the bible or Quran and he replied that he would prefer to swear with a cutlass because he was a traditional religionist. I'm much older now and I don't think the rumour is true).

She wrote a book about her problems and suffering when Obasanjo was head of state and I read a bit of the book in the 2000s.


Basically she said that Obasanjo had two wives, Oluremi and Stella, but he had a lot of affairs with other women and it was those affairs that caused the problems.

She named some of the women in that book, while she described the ones that she didn't name and she described them in a way that people would know who they were.


She wrote about the times that he brought women to stay in the guest houses at State House Dodan Barracks, the many fights that they had over the children (Obasanjo once sent the children to a boarding school in Kaduna, so that she won't have access to them. She flew to Kaduna and almost fought the principal of the school. She took the children and brought them back to Lagos).

She filed for divorce in 1976, but MD Yusufu (the inspector general of police) convinced her to withdraw the suit because the Murtala Government was still young and it would embarrass the government. It was Murtala and Yusufu that usually settled the quarrels.

She wrote about the time that Obasanjo had an affair with the principal of Queens College, while her daughter, Iyabo, was a student of the school. She said that Iyabo attacked the principal.


She also wrote about the divorce. She said that she has heard many people talk about the divorce, but she was not served any papers, neither did she know of any divorce proceedings. She said that she believed that Obasanjo rigged the divorce.


You might notice that she did not act as first lady when Obasanjo was head of state. Instead, wives of other government functionaries and female members of government acted as hostess during state visits, for example when Jimmy Carter visited Nigeria in 1978.

(By the way, Olusegun Obasanjo was already married to Stella Abebe when he was head of state).

Title of the book pls, it will be an interesting read

Obasanjo would have turned this country for good if he'd wanted to. He was a very strong and fearless president. During his 8yrs as president, he worked with 5 senate presidents. He sacked state's governors as he pleases.

The only Nigerian president till date to have received any sitting American president on a state's visit in the persons of Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and George Bush.

He's the most respected Nigerian leader in the world since independence. God's grace is living in this man only that he fumbled in some areas.

Baba Obasanjo has a good life and kept it as simple as possible. Very close to normality. Only God can give that. Despite all, he is still doing great things.
