Former president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo has said despite that Nigeria is a complex country it is not too difficult to govern.

Obasanjo while commissioning presidential lodge inside Osun state Government House, Oke-Fia, Osogbo alongside Governor Ademola Adeleke and former governor, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola on Sunday, May 12, noted that governance is easy when leaders are honest with their conscience.

He said: “With my experience, Nigeria is a complex country but Nigeria is not a difficult country to rule, maybe one can also say the same that Osun state is a complex state but Osun State is not a difficult state to rule.

“You have to be honest with your conscience, with the people and with your God. You have to be a man of character and attributes that everybody will see that Ademola Adeleke, when he sees opportunity to dance, he would dance but is a man of integrity, honesty and hardwork, it is very important! When light comes, darkness vanishes.”

He also declared that Adeleke is his dancing partner any day because he has proven to the world that he is happy and also very hardworking governor.

He advised Adeleke that, “You are working on roads, don’t joke with it because when we make necessary provision for the people to have jobs and they will work. Many Yoruba people want to work but what is impeding that is the road to ply. When we provide wherewithal for them they would work. I will plead with you to continue with that.”

Earlier, Adeleke explained that the VIP lodge was abandoned after the administration of Rauf Aregbesola who left it at 35 percent completion.

“However, work commenced on the project three months ago and now it is completed. This lodge can accommodate 5 dignitaries with their team conveniently at a time.”

Obj the best president we ever had. I knew after his tenure, Nigeria would become a mess

Sharpsharp00123:
if your obi contested during obj time then u igbos will know tinubu is an angel

I bet u were still in d womb when maurice iwu was inec chairman , people were still on queue in different states when election results were announced n winners declared

The same reason fayose never respect obj cos he said they wrote election results on obj bed but today obj is d hero of the igbos cos he’s against tinubu

The same obj that u dare not counter as president, he removed all the governors that opposed his 3rd term agenda

U these indomie generation kids who rate obj don’t even know him, the same man who borrowed 16 billion naira for electricity n we are still in darkness

Creamypie:

Can u compare these useless government 2 life during obasanjo government? Are you saying for one to hate bad governance, he has 2 be an Igbo? U think westerners voted your urine-dispensing machine tinubu

Sharpsharp00123:
my father is the useless idiot

I think this answers my foolish question

MEEVEET:

Obj is bad ooh but

He choose competent hands no matter where they are from

He never sidelined any single region

He never used tribal politics

He knew what he was doing in terms of economy, security and national cohesion

You can't deny any of the above is true

Creamypie:
see as u dey abuse yourself

YorubaNiBaba:
Easy to say but when baba was president for 8 yrs, he did nothing

tommy589:
Baba that was removing senate president anyhow. Where do we start from,is it when PDP governors were forced to donate money to his library or how one of the Uba brothers manhandled a sitting governor (Ngige) in the state house. He laid the foundation for everything that's wrong with this 4th Republic

Sharpsharp00123:
then igbos never fell out with pdp so they still believed pdp will hand over power to them so they don’t take every president as an enemy but now that they fell out with pdp everyone is their enemy n it’s unwise to carry an enemy along in your doings

MEEVEET:

What exactly is your point?

Sharpsharp00123:
u igbos are another thing else

How u chose to deny your tribe easily should b studied in d university

No time u will see “I am not igbo”. Even from a known igbo guy


So back to your madness, u igbos re just pained u lost out

Nothing more nothing less

Creamypie:
from your submissions, u Votr for tribal reasons and not based on competence, hence the 900 percent inflation we are experiencing under APC. Its people like u who campaigned against 900 percent decrease in prices when PDP was ruling and now, are defending current prices at 900 % increase

Sharpsharp00123:
my point is that obj was the one that paid the foundation for Nigeria madness but because he’s against tinubu today the he’s an hero to the igbos

MEEVEET:


Obj grew our GDP from $59 billion to over $400 billion

Paid off all our debts

Stabilized our democracy

Unified the country

Brought in seasoned technocrats

What has your Tinubu done

Of APC did half what OBJ did we would have a I trillion dollar economy
