Former president Olusegun Obasanjo has alleged that a “cabal” surrounding late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua framed corruption charges against his daughter, Iyabo when she was a senator in order to get back at him because of his personal views against them. He has previously been openly accused of incest and adultery by his son, Gbenga, who sought to divorce his wife alleging that his father was sleeping with her.“

My adversaries tried other means to get to me,” he stated.

“If Obasanjo could not be cut down to size, they must have thought, what about those close to him, including his daughter? When Senator Iyabo, my daughter, was accused of corruption, I took my time to have a serious interview with her on what exactly had transpired. She briefed me in detail and I was satisfied.

“But I did not stop there. I spoke with the Senate President, who also briefed me and assured me that Iyabo had not committed any offence as he had personally looked into the matter. I was again reassured but did not stop there. I talked to another senator, Mrs. Ekaette, who was a member of the health committee of which Iyabo was chairman. Mrs. Ekaette again satisfied me with her explanation. I was advised to talk to President Yar’Adua but I refused to do this, especially as I was told he was expecting me to. Instead, I advised Iyabo to hand the matter over to Chief Afe Babalola, a lawyer and friend, to deal with it through the court process. She was discharged and acquitted by the court.

“The fact that my ordeal, and that of my daughter, occurred under the administration of President Yar’Adua, who was brought into power by God through me, did not surprise me. I have always held to a belief that any person who expects commendation, praise, eulogy, or credit from any human being might die a frustrated wretch.”

He named some members of the “cabal” as Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi and Baba Kingibe “aided and supported by two governors – Bukola Saraki and James Ibori – for their own personal and selfish reasons”.

This was part of the revelations in his yet-to-be-released three-part volume of his memoirs titled My Watch, which was exclusively obtained by an online journal, The Cable Alert.

He had also accused Goodluck Jonathan’sadministration of inducing Iyabo to attack him while pointing accusing fingers at governors during his tenure of sponsoring the third term bid.

Imagine corruption himself calling people corrupt, even the devil, the father of all criminals is shocked.

We know all these before now, but Iyabo was also careless in her endeavours as Chairman Senate Committee on Health. The then minister, Prof Adenike Grange was actually discharged and acquitted by the court.

Baba has been speaking too much of late

Season of revelation.GOD will not sleep until the enemies of dis great Country are DESTROYED

H

Old age is a bastard....OBJ has lost his charisma!

crious?..

see as him dey do like say him wan enter the paper...



Nairaland....our next meeting abeg

.

Enough of these old man please.

Ok

so how this take affect the price of garri for market

Lol...baba ni e! Not afraid to step on toes. His messages are always on point though the messenger remains tainted.

This book may probably emerge the book of the decade, beating el-rufai's, segun adeniyi's, Isama's and many others.

But iyabo na mumu sha! Why would she allow herself to be used against her father. On top how much na.

Christmas don come, I for rush go spend 15k put for the three volumes. Abeg I never buy my children cloth. Baba's book can wait till next year.

dont worry baba, Ibori is already in jail on foreign land. probably being molested by men younger than him.

same fate awaits other "stealing is not corruption" campaigner.
2015 will be fun.

If only everybody knew the content of this book...

I don't know whaat Obasanjo did to Iyabo that made her turn on him, but I think that of all his children, she is the only one baba is nice to. Or is he trying to placate her after she showed him that she too is like him; uses mischief and blackmail as a tool.


Whatever the case, they should come back together cos she is the only one, of all his children, that can replace baba when he is gone.

i cant believe people are paying for this mans book. if someone offered it to me i will use it to wipe my a-s-s

Nairaland is giving this OBJ's textbook unnecessary attention.

Obasanjo...the attention seeker

This baba is exhibiting all the signs of a senile old man especially big time bad belle . The bitter old man will soon go the way of Achebe. I predict

hmmm, obasanjo yesterday, today and when will it stop?

In this book, baba did not leave any stone unturned, and he left no turn un-stoned.

This textbook mata again? It's becoming boring.

NaijaOptimist:
.

they shld ban u.

Its only in nigeria that a past elected office holder who was outstandingly nefarious/corrupt becomes a saint immediately he/she leaves office....am sure gej will do dsam come 2019

He had also accused Goodluck Jonathan’sadministration of inducing Iyabo to attack him while pointing accusing fingers at governors during his tenure of sponsoring the third term bid.

Is baba saying he knows nothing about his third term bid to become the president

I find this hard to believe.... Because Baba you just lied with those word
