Simeonjoe1: You couldn't have said it better. Development is a long term project and one of the major problems with Nigeria is lack of continuity. You can only imagine how Nigeria would be today if the leaders that came after OBJ carried on with the projects that he started and saw them to completion. |

I so much agree with El-Rufai on this! Obasanjo's second tenure was the most prosperous term. That was when our musical artists started making waves due to the policy which allows high percentage of Nigeria content to be played in radio stations across the country. The time also recorded made in Nigeria juice as the govt banned importations of fruits juice. Coca-Cola started producing 5 alive here in Nigeria and other companies follow suit. Nigeria entertainment industry especially standup comedy industry started booming. Infact, most of the standup comedian hit their fame during Obasanjo. Stand up comedy isn't longer what it was use to be nowadays. Nigeria air carrier too , Virgin Nigeria was well operated. Obasanjo's economics achievement begins to fall during Jonathan and scattered during Buhari |

[quote author=happney65 post=125823014]I said this days back and people with sense agreed with me with some agbado people beating around the bush and cursing their parents.. Even from his first term he did excellently well. His cabinet are the best till date Ngozi Okonjo Iweala Nasir El-rufai Late Remi Oyo Late Dora Akunyile Nuhu Ribadu Chuwemeka chikelu. A very and highly cerebral information minister who was so quiet the media reported him most times he doesn't even go out with his Aides and s You're right, most of them were unknow before Obj appointed them, yet produced great results. Soludo was a classic example. 1 Like |

Benwallt: Nigerians and sensationalism. He helped solidify your naivety. He couldn't provide evidence of misappropriation of funds or corruption. He only deceived you because he wanted to be politically correct. It's like saying Oshiomole hated Ize-Iyamu in 2016. How's Soludo fairing now as Governor? Tomorrow, it's folks like you that will vote a sentimental man like that as president. We're talking about Nigeria's most successful era here. Perhaps Obi, and even BAT would be given credit for contributing their quotas as Governors. Since then Nigeria has become a shithole because of tribalism and bigotry. 1 Like |

iammo:. The same windfall and excess crude account was frittered away under the same NOI. Soludo did very well. But we should not ignore the side of ElRufais statement…..we were very lucky. It was more luck than good management. What do we have to show for govt spending during the Obasanjo era….what did they spend the money on? Where are the roads, power, rail, airports etc? Hence the element of luck that oil prices were so high it hid the govt inefficiencies and wastefulness of the time because the private sector could continue to do business.l because the Naira was stable. The Naira was stable simply by good fortune of high oil prices. 1 Like |

Zxcvbnmghtr: Please qualify it! It was his 2nd term cabinet that was good; the first term cabinet was absolute rubbish (because he wanted to pay "political IOUs" to people who dusted him up from Abacha's prison to Aso Rock)! Go and check the records. Only his 2nd term cabinet was good. El-Rufai even emphasised it too: "SECOND TERM CABINET." |

Simeonjoe1: All of them are problems. Atiku is a fulani، Buhari looked away from the atrocities of his kinsmen during his tenure. The are now monsters. Atiku will not be different. El - rufai is a bigot. He would prefer a poor, Islamized Nigeria than a prosperous detribalized, Free society. Sanusi, the deposed emir, looks reasonable but I can trust him with power. What he did as CBN governor. He almost paralyzed christian owned banks. Shettima, the say, he has a soft spot for Boko Haram. Why not a middle - belter next time: Taraba, Benue, Plateau.....not Hausa or fulani.? At |

Clearing debt is not an achievement whilst you have an infrastructure deficit and not industrialised. A homeless tramp on the street has no debt and Dangote has more debt than anybody in Africa, so rushing to clear debt without any plan or action on development is very daft and stupid. In any case Obj never cleared our debt, he made a lot of money disappear though. iammo: 1 Like |

Me and someone discussed same thing yesterday. If we don't want to deceive ourselves, OBJ's regime was the best since 1999. A man that left a debt free country to his successor. It was during his regime that a once labelled that they say their reward was in heaven started building and buying cars. |

Nigeria needed industry and infratructure like power more than we needed hospitals . Name the hospitals you claim he built sef, just give me names of 2 so that I can factcheck. What are FMCs, Federal Military Colleges? In any case give me names of 2 FMCs he built . Obasanjo was an unmitigated disaster . IfnobeGod20: |
