Obj doesn't forgive and forget
This is not about forgiveness as it is about exposing the thief known as Atiku as well as Obasanjo himself !!

Atiku has challenged anyone who has any evidence of corruption against him to step forward. Neither yourself, Tinubu, or Obasanjo have done so. Obasanjo is only mad that Atiku stopped him from getting a third term. If Tinubu attempts the same (God forbid he wins re-election), Shettima will also oppose him. Northerners are not cowards, and they don't go through corners. When will Obasanjo write one of those famous letters he's known for to Tinubu? Where is Wole Soyinka?
One who is not a coward would have sued Obasanjo in defamation.

The evidence the US government have nko
I know it's different jurisdiction but you can refer to it
His wife Jennifer was the main conduit pipe
And besides how much was he earning as either a Customs officer or VP for him to have all those properties in Dubai
We all know how these things work, he will use proxies to acquire them
Proxy wey we dey do as university students attending companies AGMs?
Do you think you will get anything to convict PBAT for ? No but everywhere you look it's his corruption ,but no Proof

Wow but obj was Nigeria finest after Yar'adua, what went wrong ?
To other Nigerians he was the next thing to bread and butter
But in Yorubaland, he is a failure
Nobody say he should bring everything to Yorubaland or play tribal politics but not constructing even the Abeokuta road that leads to his homes and businesses is nothing but Foolishness
And his deceiving Yoruba elders who supported him in 2003 nailed his coffin in Yorubaland

He isn't respected at all, na only those who benefitted from his government get anything good to say about him
Ibadan Ilorin road that he awarded still hasn't been finished today 26 years later cos he awarded it to his cronies who simply ate the money. Buhari and Fashola did lots of work on that road and PBAT is finalising it

Atiku sued Obasanjo 11 times as a serving VP and won. Go and verify. He probably got tired of winning. This cannot happen today under the NADECO pretenders though.

Please state here the Suit No. of the defamation of character suit filed by Atiku Abubakar and whether or not the book containing his CV in stealing and corruption is still not on the bookshelves freely available for sale to Atiku's children and grandchildren who will certainly be interested in his stealing and corruption career.

More importantly, I find it strange that someone who claims to be a billionaire would believe that every 42-year-old must also be a billionaire—or that anyone who is not one is somehow less worthy as a human being.

They have a penchant for kneeling down to beg and then moving against you as soon as they get what they want. Like Obasanjo and Atiku, like Tinubu and Elrufai. Circa 2003, all the governors were in support of Atiku and were ready to support him as president. It was said that Obasanjo had to beg Atiku to allow him to go for a second term which Atiku obliged. The rest is history. Atiku is not a small politician. He stepped down for MKO Abiola in 1991. He funded Obasanjo's campaign in 1999 and gave him the Yar'adua structure that he inherited. He has paid his dues and he should cease all form of respect for Obasanjo and also roll in the mud with him.
wow...could it be that Atiku has wasted his God given chances helping others become what God actually apportioned to himhuh
scary thought.

Honestly Obasanjo hasn't really specified exactly what Atiku did in clearer terms and that has made his allegations look very suspicious and unconvincing.

The tension between both politically did affected governance and weaken public institutions. The issue also affected AD governors that supported OBJ for second term cause OBJ taught Atiku was courting them to his advantage and hence made them loose out.
