And nobody is revisiting the tragic murder of FUNSHO WILLIAMS,...obasanjo should beware of these skull miner.

All of a sudden, obj has become the villain because he choose to stand by truth. That's exactly wat Tinubu's campaign has turned Nigerians into. The moment u don't approve of him,his media dogs will unleashed on u. Ig he's that unimportant y did Tinubu visited him? But because he no endorse am,all hell have been let loose..weda urchins like it or not, obj is.the hero of the modern Nigeria

BATified2023:
don’t mind d igbos

They call themselves Christian’s but I can bet u that at this stage of d devil supports peter obi they will ignore Jesus within d twinkle of an eye

Same people who suddenly turned gumi to an hero

And who made you the maker of devil

Obasanjo just cause kasala everywhere

E for no loud the endorsement o

LolzRevisiting all because of sash, The INCOMING

Tochi3:


I thought Thief'nubu visited Obasanjo to also seek for his endorsement...

After the endorsement of Thief'nubu by Obasanjo even Gbajamillla released a statement to that effect claiming the emilokan has been endorsed by Obasanjo the Igboman from Anambra State... ..

Then, APCshit & their urchins celebrated the endorsement & hailed Obasanjo as the only & true omoluabi that ever existed in Nigeria's political space...

My question is what happened... why the sudden bile, pains & hate against the person of Obasanjo... Thesame man who Tore his PDP ward card to the awe & admiration of APCshit...

Anyway.. I am still waiting for urchins to remind us of the Story of Obasanjo's escapades during the Civil war & how he suyanized millions of flat heads to hell...

What sifia pains, hate for the truth can do does not exist.

Mumu. Obasanjo don finally turn Saint.

Even if Satan physically endorse una Pandora fraud today and Jesus don't, you guys will say Satan is not guilty of God's judgement and God should be questioned.

Clowns

Let's not forget the sequence of the letter. Obasanjo was making a case for Buhari and APC Presidency and the chameleon and the moderator that brought this topic back supported and cheered Obasanjo and condemned Iyabo then.

The question is, what changed?

Obasanjo was the Maradona that led APC to victory in 2015 and was the brain behind the G-6 NPDP that brought Buhari to power.

Obi's endorsement is causing sleepless nights to all quarters...

Urchins please try and give up. Please

OBJ is free to support anyone he wants to support. In 2015 he supported Buhari.

Accept his.choice and move on.

Because of OBI, some suffersticated yelobar people supporting emi low corn are now calling OBj, all manners of names


OBI is greater than any yoruba leader dead or alive, OBJ you have done well, We sensible Nigerians shall remember your stance for one nigeria, peace, u it’s and development of Nigeria

Emi low corn is a sick man we can’t let him handle a sick country

The same OBJ they hauled few months ago when their drug daddie visited him for endorsements, na the same OBj they are calling names now

This letter indirectly shows a man who did use the treasury to give his family a luxury lifestyle.

Svoboda:
Obasanjo is morally bankrupt. On two occasions he was seperately accused of sleeping with his daughters in law by his own sons.

His former daughter in law also accused him of pimping his own....
The less said about this vain glorious man, the better.

You made a direct statement... Is a
Based on ifs and maybes... Accused

Kudos.

Okoroawusa:
Passingshot, I am speechless.

Obasanjo failed as a father, a husband, a president and an elder stateman

All because he didn't endorsed the Lagos Drug Capone.


2015 he was the beautiful bride, today after Obi's endorsement he became a useless man.

Okoroawusa:
Passingshot, I am speechless.

Obasanjo failed as a father, a husband, a president and an elder stateman

So one persons view justifies a man as an entity..... I trust obj not to respond to such..

Okoroawusa:
You have not read his son Gbenga letter or that of his daughter in law.... you will vomit.

He doesn't even know how many children he has and his children don't know how many they are as siblings. That's how wayward he was.

Accusations and accusations and una wan crucify him on accusations... Did it at any point dawn on you that people would do or say anything to gain something.... But its always easy picking a spear and joining the crowd to slay the mammoth...

Well said.

I'm so happy that voting is not on the social media. I know whom I'm voting for

All these visits and revisiting simply because Obasanjo endorsed Obi? Una go dey alright

Felimax:
I want his picture here some people may not know the Obasanjo they are talking about.

Obasanjo perceived Tinubu and Atiku as his arch enemies hence his disregard towards them.

but he supported Atiku when it was Atiku again the national disaster.

The fact is that OBj could have gotten something's wrong when in office but his kind of politics since left office has shown that he has Nigeria at heart.

He left Jonathan when i felt Buhari could be better, returned to Atiku when Buhari became a national calamity and moved to obi when he's the most qualified.

Don't you think OBj endorsing TINUBU will make peace between the two brothers? But still OBj went all out for the best. I salute his courage

Omg. Agbado wailing wailers wallowing wailing pain. Lmao. The tears is just starting.

Peter Obi will be your president come May 2023.

Kudos.

Those were extracted from media interviews and court submissions. They were everywhere at that time, not least from his daughters letter.

This one is too much oooo from daughter to father. What would he have done

Na normal things nau, no be army man him be

YorubaNiBaba:
Asiwaju of Nigeria, on your mandate we shall stand

On the mandate of a drug dealer you stand.

Shame on you

Sammy07:
OBJ really committed much atrocities.

Probably why he wasn't really that regarded.

But still more regarded than your entire community. The name OBj is more important than the name of your village and everything and everybody inside your village your papa included.

Passingshot is too forgetful and morally irresponsible to remember that.

PassingShot. Na WA oh. You still dey this nairaland.

PassingShot:
Nigeria accused me of fraud with the Ministry of Health. As you yourself know, both in Abeokuta and Abuja I lived in your houses as a Senator. In Lagos, I stayed in my mum’s bungalow which she succeeded in getting from you when you abandoned her with six children to live in Abeokuta with Stella.

I borrowed against my four-year Senate salary to build the only house I have anywhere in the world in Lagos. I rent out the house for income. I don’t have much in terms of money but I am extremely happy. I tried to contribute my part to the development of my country but the country decided it didn’t need me. Like many educated Nigerians my age, there are countries that actually value people doing their best to contribute to society and as many of them have scattered all over the world so have many of your children.


I can speak for myself and many of them; what they are running away from is that they can’t even contribute effectively at the same time as they have to deal with constant threats to their lives by miscreants the society failed to educate; deal with lack of electricity and air pollution resulting from each household generating its own electricity, and the lack of quality healthcare or education and a total lack of sense of responsibility of almost every person you meet. Your contribution to this scenario cannot be overestimated.

You and your cronies mentioned in your letter have left the country worse than you met it at your births in the 1930’s and 1940’s. Nigeria is not the creation of any of you, and although you feel you own it and are “Mr Nigeria” deciding whether the country stays together or not, and who rules it; you don’t. Nigeria is solely the creation of the British. My dear gone Grandmother whose burial you told people not to attend, was not born a Nigerian but a proud Ijebu-Yoruba woman. Togetherness is a choice and it must serve a purpose.

As for Nigerians thinking I have their money, when it was obvious I was part of the Yar’Adua (government’s) anti-Obasanjo phenomenon that was going on at the time. The Ministry of Health and international NGOs paid for a retreat for the Senate Committee on Health. The House Committee on Health was treated exactly the same way. The monies were given to members as estacode and the rest used for accommodation, flights and feeding. While the Senate was on the retreat in Ghana, the EFCC asked the House Committee to return the monies they received for their retreat and asked us in the Senate to return ours on our return which I refused, as it was already used for the purpose it was earmarked for in the budget that year which was to work on the National Health Bill.

The House Committee had not gone on their retreat. I did nothing wrong and my colleagues and I on the retreat did our work conscientiously. I asked the EFCC not to drag my colleagues into it and I am proud I suffered alone. As is usual in a society where people who are not progressive but take pleasure in the pain of others, most Nigerians were happy, not looking at the facts of the matter, just the suffering of an Obasanjo.

As the people that stole their millions are hailed by them the innocent is punished. When the court case was thrown out because it lacked merit even against the Minister, no newspaper carried the news. The wrongful malicious prosecution of an Obasanjo was not something they wanted to report; just her downfall. But it really wasn’t about me, it was about right and wrong in society and every society gets the fruit of the seeds it sows.

How do you think God will provide good leaders to such a people? God helps those who help themselves. I have realized that as an Obasanjo I am not entitled to work in Nigeria in any capacity. I am not entitled to work in health which is my training, or in any field or anywhere in the country or participate in any business. I have learnt this lesson well and there are societies that actually think capable, well-educated people are important to their society’s progress. Apparently, unless I am eating from the dustbin, Nigerians and possibly you will not be satisfied. I thank God it has not come to that based on God-given brains and brawn.

When I left Nigeria in 1989 for graduate studies in America, you promised to pay my school fees and no living expenses. This you did and I am grateful for because, working in the kitchen and then the library at University of California, Davis and later, working on the IT desk and later as a Teaching Assistant at Cornell gave me valuable work ethics for life. I wouldn’t have it any other way. As a black woman in the early 21st century, I have achieved much and done more than most. My wish is that black girls all over the world will have the capacity to create their lives, make mistakes, learn from it and move ahead.

Moving back to Nigeria, thinking I wanted to serve was obviously a grave mistake but one brought about by the tragic incident of April 20, 2003. This was the day five people were shot dead in my car. The mother of the children was an acquaintance I had met only one day before the incident.

We had attended the same high school and university but she was there ten years earlier than I. She had also studied public health in the UK as I had in the US. It was these coincidences that made us connect on our first meeting and then she decided to visit on the Saturday of the election of 2003 when the incident occurred. I am scarred for life by that incident and I know the mother was too as we both looked back to see two men on each side of my car shooting.

I understand her trauma and her behaviour since then can be judged from that. Nigeria is a nasty place that pushes people to lose their compass. I participated in the campaigns leading to the elections that day, more because this was my first experience of electoral process in Nigeria. Growing up there were no elections and I was too young in the 1979 and 1983 elections. It was interesting to see democracy at work. When Gbenga Daniel who I campaigned for offered me a job, I probably would have declined it, if not for the memory of the dead.


I felt I had to engage in making the country progress and to avoid such incidences in the future. I don’t need to tell you or anyone what kind of governor and person Gbenga Daniel is. As usual when I found out, you would not listen to my opinion but found out for yourself. I also campaigned for Amosun for the Senate in 2003. I have had some wonderful Nigerians do good to me, I will never forget the then Minister of Women Affairs, who saw me talking in the crowd at a campaign event and was alarmed and said “bad things can happen to you out there, I will give you one of the orderlies assigned to my office to follow you”. This was the police man that died in my car that day. I never really thought bad things would happen to me, I moved around freely in society until that shooting scarred me and I accepted a police detail. I was constantly scared for my life after that.

You called me after your vengeful letter as usual, looking out for yourself and thinking you will bribe me by saying the APC will use me for the Senate. Do you really know me and what I want out of life?

Anyone that knows me knows I am done with anything political or otherwise in Nigeria. I have so much to do and think to make this world a better place than to waste it on fighting with idiots over a political post that does no good to society. That letter you wrote to the President, would you have tolerated such a letter as a sitting President? Don’t do to others what you will not allow to be done to you. The only thing I was using that was yours was the house in Abuja where I left my things when I left the country. I eventually rented it out so that the place would not fall apart but as usual you want to take that as well. You can’t have it without explaining to Nigerians how you came about the house?

As I said earlier, this is not about politics but my frustration with you as a father and a human being. I am not involved with what is currently going on in Nigeria, I don’t talk to any Nigerian other than friends on social basis. I am not involved with any political groups or affiliation. You mentioned Governor Osoba when you spoke to me, yes I was walking down the street of Cambridge, Massachussets a few months ago, when I looked up and saw him reading a map trying to cross the street.

I greeted him warmly and offered to give him a ride to where he was going. This I did not do because I wanted anything from him politically but because that is how I was raised by my mother to treat an adult who I really had no ill-will towards. Some said he was part of the people that manipulated the elections for me to lose in 2011. I don’t have any ill-will to him for that because I think they did me a favour and someone has to win and lose.


I had told you I wasn’t going to run in 2011 but you manipulated me to run; that was my mistake. Losing was a blessing. As usual you wanted me to run for your self-serving purpose to perpetuate your name in the political realm and as the liar that you are, you later denied that it was you who wanted me to run in 2011.

In 2003 I ran because I wanted to and I thought getting to the central government I will be able to contribute more to improving lives and working on legislation that impacts the country. I found that nothing gets done; every public official in Nigeria is working for himself and no one really is serving the public or the country.

The whole system, including the public themselves want oppressors, not people working for their collective progress. When no one is planning the future of a country, such a country can have no future. I won’t be your legacy, let your legacy be Nigeria in the fractured state you created beca
USA.use, it was always your way or the highway.

This is the end of my communication with you for life. I pray Nigeria survives your continual intervention in its affairs.

Sincerely,
Iyabo Obasanjo, DVM, PhD

A frd of mine working as aide to mama Iyabo told me point clear...

Obj is an epitome of anything called irresponsibility.

It's also extremely narcissistic.

Obj is cruel

The less said about this vain glorious man, the better.

All these you have said are true but does it change the fact that he sees Obi as the best candidate for the election?
