Obasanjo the man who brought in men and women of substance into govt. No tribe no religion or section of the country that wasn't ably represented in his govt.

After that, Yar'adua and Jonathan followed suit,but it came to APC,they destroyed the spirit of oneness, cohesion and one Nigeria. And took Nigeria to tribal and regional economy of where one region can tell others without Lagos no one can survive as if they are surviving themselves.

Jonathan is the next biggest mistake in recent politics. He's the cause of Buhari and everything awkwardly terrible afterwards
He is not the cause of Buhari
The propagandas and lies against his govt championed by the south west from the home of Tinubu brought Buhari
And the fact that the northerners felt cheated because to them, after 8yrs of OBJ, a northerner is supposed to rule for another 8yrs but the death of Yaradua changed everything.
GEJ was not supposed to contest 2015 election. The handwriting was already there from 2011 election that the North were angry.
I just pray nothing happen to Tinubu. We may likely witness the toxicity of 2008 to 2015 if Shettima is to assume power as the president. But the Southern part is not united
All these constant fight and attacks between the igbos and the yorubas need to stop now.
We all from the South need to unite.
The yorubas are in power, they are representing the entire South. They are supposed to be championing peace and unity of the South not trying to make the igbos the scapegoat.
If by mistake anything happened to Tinubu(God forbid), the SW will learn a bitter political lesson when the north grabs power and refused to release it.
The igbos will never support them
We from SS may likely not support them based on what they did to our GEJ.
They are supposed to be mending fences with the entire South now that they have gotten what they wanted.
The North are only interested in power, they are never ur friends.
I hope the SW learn

I quite agree with you. Obj has proven to be the best yet. Unfortunately he did not install someone like him to takeover, or at best handover a rig-proof INEC.

Yes,As humans we are not perfect. His using Yaradua who he thought won't steal and it was the truth. Yaradua was one of the least corrupt Govornors we ever had in Nigeria.

Dude just wanted to retire and go back to teaching in class before Obasanjo took him and GEJ. But Yaradua was a socialist and not a capitalist like Obasanjo

However, Yaradua started the process of a better INEC when he accepted the fact in public that the election that brought him into power wasn't perfect and flawed

APC is an Islamic ba mi Allah dash me a kobo political party.
APC is all about how to make Nigeria become an Islamic Republic.

Don't we see how Buhari established a possible 24 years of Muslim presidency for Nigeria and a Muslim-Muslim presidency for the first time since 1999?
Obasanjo finished his term, Peter Odili the former gov of Rivers State had nobody to beat to succeed Obasanjo, but Obasanjo sidelined Odili at the last minute and selected a Muslim, Yar'adua, who never considered running for presidential election.

APC has plans to Talibanize Nigeria in future after the failure of Buhari's RUGA.

Thank to OBJ for selecting and listening to his brilliant technocrats.

GEJ also had Iwealla (as Finance and Economic Minister ) and when she advised GEJ to remove oil subsidies in 2012 he relented and kept the oil subsidies and wasted the $100 p/b oil windfall on consumption.

I DO NOT TAKE THEIR STATEMENT SERIOUS.

Wrong. Yaradua killed our economy. GEJ is way better than yaradua.
Same way buhari killed us economically.
Save for elrufai, Sanusi and Atiku most northern political elites are socialist and such mentality will pull down a developing economy like ours...

Jonathan had a very good cabinet too and they performed well. His problem was more political than performance.
For example, whatever credibility our electoral system has today was pioneered in 2011 under Jonathan. But it was that same year youth corpers were killed because someone lost an election. Its funny same Jonathan was the major victim of free and fair election he tried to achieve.
Jonathan's govt also brought the idea of TSA, FOI and sovereign wealth which were all fought against by opposition just for the sake of politics. He had his faults certainly. But to put him in the same class as Buhari is disingenuous and totally unfair.
