Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says All Progressives Congress stalwart, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, was right to call President Muhammadu Buhari an ethnic bigot and religious fanatic in 2007.

Tinubu had while campaigning for the then candidate of the Action Congress, Atiku Abubakar, in 2007, described Buhari of the All Nigeria Peoples Party as an ethnic bigot.

Interestingly, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, who is now the Minister of Information, was part of Atiku’s campaign team at the time and had lambasted Buhari for saying the late military dictator, General Sani Abacha, did not steal.

Both Tinubu and Mohammed are now members of Buhari’s campaign team after the merger of their respective parties.

He wrote, “Bola Tinubu’s statement about Muhammadu Buhari in 2003 (2007) is fairly prophetic, ‘Muhammadu Buhari is an agent of destabilisation, ethnic bigot and religious fanatic who, if given the chance, would ensure the disintegration of the country. His ethnocentrism would jeopardise Nigeria’s national unity.’”

The former President also made reference to a former Second Republic federal lawmaker, Dr. Junaid Mohammed.

He added, “Junaid Mohammed was eloquent on the issue of nepotism. But if as we were told that Buhari is nepotic because he does not trust others, why should others trust him to continue to put their fate and lives in his hand?

“Trust begets trust. They cannot be trusted for ‘sensitive’ appointment but they can be sent out to campaign for his re-election. Who is fooling who?”

Obasanjo, who himself, supported Buhari in 2015, said it would be foolish of Nigerians to allow Buhari fool them a second time.

i went to south east and i felt so sad about the muddy road, no wonder they call them potopoto republic.

Yes oooo.

But tell us your community first so that we can tell you how impoverished and famished you and your people are. We will also tell you the condition of your roads and your own living conditions.

Please do not tell us that you are from Lagos State. Even if you do, we will still tell you how the living conditions are. That way you can check which is better between your assumed potopoto and your dustbin infested communities.


























meanwhile, Niger now has a rail road built by same Nigerian govt
