I Am Ready To Defend My Role On Privatisation - Obasanjo by gfus: 12:14am On Aug 22, 2011
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Thursday, broke his silence on some allegations recently levelled against him, concerning the privatisation programme, saying he was ready to defend his role in the exercise.

He said that former military ruler, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida’s criticism of the handling of the energy project during his (Obasanjo’s) tenure was not well thought out.

Obasanjo spoke in Abeokuta after the visit of a U.S. team that came on a visit to the Obasanjo Presidential Library.

Obasanjo recently came under intense criticisms for his role in the privatisation programme, currently being investigated by a Senate Ad-hoc Committee.

Babangida had on the eve of his 70th birthday anniversary on Aug. 16, blamed Obasanjo for the prevailing poor power supply in the country, accusing him of wasting a whopping $16 billion on electricity without achieving any result.

The senate guys don't want him to come. Abi na by force? You don see where thief dey force police to arrest am? Unfortunately, it is only in Nigeria that the chief actors in probes are left out of the whole exercise and we feel confident of doing a good job. The only aim of such probe exercises is just to award swan water contracts to their children at #1 million per carton.

Ah! Fratres<whose palying the violin?


Vavavoom:People of Nairaland, if you find yourself hoping on this matter don't hold your breath rather pinch yourself quickly to clear any hallucination.

Otherwise ask OBJ, why we are here again.
