MUMU AND OF EVERYTHING HE WROTE..ITS ONLY THIS ONE U HIGHLIGHTED...WHY DIDNT U HIGHLIGHT HIS JABS ON BUHARI...

Ojefool!!
this is what he wrote about Buhari:

He described Gen
Muhammadu Buhari as a “strong, almost
inflexible, courageous and firm leader,” but
said he would not be a good economic
manager.


Now go read your books for your exams!

this book is surely calls for more questions...maybe a book signing day where each part of the book is dissected...and of course, as our president is now open with such "delicate" matters, we should ask questions on the corruption posture within his regime!!!

What I decipher and conclude from Obasanjo's book and writings is that he is a man who listens to gossips and rumors flying around him. Most of the contents of his book were more of hearsay from people who ran to him with fabricated stories of perceived enemies, opponents and even friends of the the former president in order to curry favour and be in his good books. These stories were meant to boost his ego and he fell for them accepting them as true facts. Obasanjo should address economic, social and political issues which are the outcome of his knowledge and experience as former head of state. He should address the various unsolved murders that took place during his tenure especially that of his Minister for Power chief Bola Ige. We want to know his response to the corruption in the Petroleum sector during his tenure and how he became a multi billionaire just after eight years on the seat of power. Anything short of these issues is a complete waste of time.

"i haved always wondered why the president jonathan was so clueless,not just me but the vast majority of nigerians who have an iota of sense have also asked that question.so,one day while we were alone and he was washing PEJ panties i finally asked him;-"Oga Jona why you clueless".hearing my question he broke down in tears and said;Baba Iyabo,i nor no oo,d matter also don tire me,but you sef u also dey clueless na.yes i know i am also clueless but your own don pass o na spiritual matter e com be.for example 20billion dollars was stolen under your watch yet you couldnt do anything about it.hearing that,he retorted at me;will you shut up your dirty mouth dont talk to me like that i am still you president,you sef no tiff eh,i am not that clueless na or dont you know that stealing is not corruption"

For the first time in my life, I actually want to purchase a memoir written by a Nigerian politician.
Talk about sensationalism! From Tinubu to GEJ...this book is causing ripples

Well its not the first sensational memoir to have made the waves since the return of civil rule.

I implore you to check out Segun Adeniyi's "Politics, Power and Death". Its as thought provoking as it is incisive.
Also in that league is El Rufai's "Accidental Public Servant" - a mind blowing expose by the Mallam as he was never afraid to name names.
Not a fan of these guys, but boy! what other way to master the tricks to grasping the laws of Leadership, Power and Deceit than learning first hand from the experiences of these evil geniuses.

OBJ has my interest with this his rave of the moment book. So that's one more sure memoir to my library.

barcanista:
Omo see cluelessness from Yaradua, wickedness and jealousy from Sanimu, evil from Kingibe. So even Presido wanted Ribadu to marry his daughter? But why are Yaraduas daughters marrying big men? What about us ? Anyway make them de expose, incoming President Buhari is taKing note.

Everyone else has skeleton in their cupboards, baba is the only saint in all of this. He is without blemish, how convenient.

Btw, let him continue with the revelation, everything that happen on earth has a reason. We might not see it now, but sooner something is gonna happen that will change the whole political landscape in Nigeria.

I don't get some of you. This is the sort of behind the scene things we don't normally know about and many times, they die with it. Instead of being bothered by the person behind it, why not enjoy it?
How I wishers that IBB will open up one day either in a book or TV documentary and tell us what happened on June 12 1993.
This sort is not a Nigeria politically behavioural culture and should be encouraged irrespective of the author.

LordVarys:
Former President Olusegun Obsanjo has sensationally linked the travails of Nuhu Ribadu, former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), to his refusal to marry late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. Yar’Adau’s daughters were famous for marrying big political figures, mostly governors. Ribadu, an assistant inspector general of police, was removed as EFCC chairman, demoted to the rank of deputy commissioner of police and eventually dismissed after a face-off with Yar’Adua. It was generally believed then that Ribadu’s refusal to terminate the corruption trial of James Ibori, former governor of Delta state and Yar’Adua’s close ally, was responsible for his travails. While not dismissing the link, Obasanjo has also suggested that Ribadu’s refusal to marry Yar’Adua’s daughter could have contributed to his maltreatment by the former president who died in 2010. He also wrote in “My Watch”, his three-volume memoirs launched on Tuesday,  that Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi, thought to be the most powerful man in Yar’Adua’s government, had a fall-out with Ribadu over a woman who was said to be more interested in the former EFCC chairman. Obasanjo  further alleged that Babagana Kingibe had a personal fall-out with Nasir el-Rufai over the infidelity of one of Kingibe’s wives. The retired general wrote: “It was revealed, for instance, that Tanimu’s main reason for wanting to fight Nuhu to a standstill was the allegation that a woman he was interested in marrying was showing more interest in Nuhu! I understand that Tanimu, in the end, married the lady, and I wondered if that would be the end of the war of attrition against Nuhu. “This was about the same time that Umaru encouraged Nuhu to marry one of his daughters, an idea which Nuhu spurned. Could that have been partly responsible for Umaru’s fury? “The Kingibe case as revealed is quite similar to Tanimu’s, as a woman is at the centre of it also. Nasir el-Rufai was accused of knowingly harbouring a boyfriend of one of Kingibe’s wives in his guest house, where this wife and her boyfriend would meet. “If Nasir chose to make his house available to his friend out of hospitality, one wonders if he could also determine which guest, male or female, his friend would receive. It would have been a different case if Nasir himself was accused of dating Kingibe’s wife!” Obasanjo further narrated how he was “blacked out” of Yar’Adua’s government at the instance of a “cabal”. The former head of state revealed that a very close friend of the Villa and a member of Yar’Adua’s inner circle, a minister from Katsina, spent two nights in his house in Abeokuta after Yar’Adua’s death. “What he told me, which may or may not have been true, was astounding, and for me another good lesson. It was sickening how Tanimu and Kingibe used government instruments at their disposal to settle personal scores. “At first, it was the same men now in the corridors of power, like Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi and Baba Kingibe, who suddenly remembered ‘the evil’ I had done them in the past, which they wanted to avenge. For Tanimu, whom I appointed Managing Director of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria on the recommendation of then Governor Umaru Yar’Adua, my offence was that I did not appoint him to run and handle the Yar’Adua Presidential Campaign and manage the campaign fund. From what I had seen of his performance at the Federal Mortgage Bank, I would not have made or allowed such an appointment. “For Baba Kingibe his grouse, I came to hear, was that I had advised Umaru Yar’Adua to consider the background of the man he was proposing to appoint as the secretary to the government of the federation. Baba was rejected by the government of Cameroon, at one time, when he was proposed as Nigerian Ambassador; and when Shehu Yar’Adua and I were in Kirikiri Prison, Shehu did not have any good thing to say about Baba Kingibe. “Umaru Yar’Adua told Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi and Baba Kingibe my impression of them and they went up in arms, aided and supported by two governors – Bukola Saraki and James Ibori – for their own personal and selfish reasons. There were other men and women who played supporting roles. I was neither worried nor have apologies for my views and impressions, which are well grounded in evidence.” Obasanjo said Yar’Adua later sacked Kingibe when “overambition was noticed by his boss” at a time ill-health was taking its toll on the late president’s work. With Yar’Adua’s health getting worse, intrigues ensured and members of the “cabal” went after anyone they perceived as close to Obasanjo, including the VP, Goodluck Jonathan, who was starved of information and access to the president. Obasanjo wrote: “Tanimu confided in his friend, saying that they all realised that it was only a matter of time; the centre would not hold. Everybody then decided to make money for themselves before the centre collapsed; and they did so while the No. 2 man in government knew little or nothing about what was going on. “He was kept in the dark. Government had been privatised by the cabal. For the whole of this period, the vice president could not chair a cabinet meeting, and he did not know how long the president would be away. During my administration, my VP chaired cabinet meetings any Wednesday that I was not physically in Abuja; and why not, after all if anything serious happened to me the VP should take over automatically. “In this case, however, Yar’Adua’s VP was not even briefed of the president travelling out of the country. He was starved of funds for the maintenance of his office and residence and, in fact, unimaginably, was later called in to see the dead body of the president on his death bed. I know the plight of the VP because, on a few occasions, I had to encourage him to bear it by being patient.”

It was really obvious that GEJ was kept in the dark during the era of Yar’Adua. We all saw it and read it online.
we need new facts not existing.

I want to believe he still has more secrets to reveal knowing the kind of person he is.

Maybe he does not want to reveal his joker yet.

I will definitely hunt for El-Rufia's book. I heard about it when it was released. I remember a Prof. in school then saying if he were Rufai, he would flee the country less than 24 hours after the release of the book. Guess his enemies must have forgiven him since he won the primaries in Adamawa (I believe ) recently. Thanks for the info

This book got my attention. I must read this book.

2) “The longest period that I have met one-on-one with the president was for one hour and ten minutes. That whole time, the president talked about nothing that was in the interest of Nigeria; instead he kept pointing out his supposed enemies and various matters that would not serve his interests. I could not stop myself from blurting out: “Mr President, no Nigerian should be your enemy. You have to be like rain falling on good and bad people alike. With that experience, I was not surprised that the president went dancing twenty-four hours after the Nyanya explosion.”

Obasanjo

But he didn't do it as he closed down ibeto cement and revoked savanna bank license.

Ans so ?

This is highly Presidential.

OBJ should apply as a reporter in the enquirer
