Exactly! Like Tinubu, he will be shouting Federalism 'upandan' but since he's the President now Federalism is in hibernation mode!

The fools in 'Afenifebi' have gone mute too! Even Wole Soyinka is in confusion mode!

Yoruba, Yorubas, they specially betraying created race!!!

And how old were you when Bola Ige was murdered? Was it under a military rule?
How old were you when Funsho Williams was killed?... and others too numerous to mention.
Or you think those people you mentioned that were either killed or imprisoned was because that happened during a military regime. For your information, not one person was either killed or imprisoned during Gen Abdusalami's regime. So this has nothing to do with the whether it is military or civilian. It has everything to do with whosoever is the Head of State, whether in khaki, or plain clothes.

I was already working when Bola ige and funsho were kpaied.
Ask obj what he did. He was in charge

That's an adult talk, except that you're not serious about changing it. I believe you don't support regional government or restructuring Nigeria, which will bring us closer to being ourselves in our part of Nigeria, so if you're against it, I don't know how you wish to get democracy in Nigeria.

APC came with lies and deceit, but Jonathan warned us of the choice before us.
According to Jonathan APC represented retrogression , criminality, rigging and authoritarian government, but some corn heads refused to listen.

Today everyone has seen that tinubu and APC has buried democracy.
The executive, legislature, judiciary and inec has teamed up to crush democracy in Nigeria

You are right, the old vagabond is a fool. Is he not one of the two Presidents that Tinubu recently dragged to France to go and tell the Judge there what they know about looting in Nigeria and specifically how Obasanjo looted all the money budgeted for electricity?

Racoon:
Nigeria's democracy fared relatively better OBJ, Yar'Addua, Goodluck Jonathan. However, since the advent of these current demons in government, it was more of increasing lawless autocrats and tyrants.

I tell you. Allowing APC to take control is like taking a thousand years back. They give N100 and collect a million naira back if they ever did any good. Even the dunces that follow them don't know the larger impact of their misrule. All they care is what they get from it. The baba of them all is that Nigeria think they would get out of this easy, they have no clue what they signed up for. Until the breakfast goes round and everybody fell am well before they realize they need to do something but by them, they all sinked in deep and only divine hand can safe them.

Obj is still the best since democracy came in 99...
Quote me ..he understands the system so well,,,you can't understand why he's the most respected African Leader..
You pointed out private university... isn't it beneficial in terms of employment generation...we now have private university that can compete globally...
Emilokan has told people who attended federal university to go obtain loan but that wasn't the case in his time....
Obj brought so many Nigerians into the oil and gas sector when it was originally runned by expatriates..
My uncle working in Halliburton is a beneficiary of that gesture...
Nigerias debt cancellation
And a Foreign reserve of 45billion dollars stabilized naira for 15years ...it was a great effort of obj / ngozi okonjo iweala...
Dollars was #170..
This subsidy problem and refinery has been the handwork of corrupt element..if obj had removed it . It would have been terrible at the time ..
Most of what BAT is doing are World bank recommendation since when obj was there which was naira devaluation and subsidy removal but he refused then okonjo iweala left his Government..m
Obj have so far been the best in terms of employment..we never had people leave the country in such droves as we currently have now ...it's terrible

You laid the foundation in 1999 when you openly bribed the national assembly members with ghana must go bags full of cash and exotic cars. You brought back the babaric "do or die" style of politics rift with violence and death. You supervised the worst election ever held in the whole world where results were announced when people were still in their polling stations voting. Not forgetting all your political enemies you assassinated from A.K Dikibo to Harry Marshall, Barnabas Igwe and his wife, Bola Igie and list goes on. Now you open your dirty mouth to say what about democracy in Nigeria? This is is an insult on the intelligence of the Nigerian people.

I remember when this same akpabio was in pdp, I remember you people were always praising him, he has always been a bad man.

It's was obj that started this nonsense election rigging. Even yar adua confessed that the election that brought him in was terribly flawed.

Says Baba Grab all. Where is the $17 billion contract you claimed to have secured for the power sector towards the end of your tenure? Funds were allocated for the National Integrated Power Project (NIPP) to enhance electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. Yet, many contracts were abandoned, delayed, or poorly executed, leaving the power sector plagued by inefficiencies, lack of maintenance, and inadequate infrastructure.
