Old news. Obasanjo said the same thing in his book and Pastor Bakare had said this years ago.

But OBJ said Buhari said yes to the proposal but Okonjo Iweala said No. Why the attempt to rewrite history by Bakare?

Height of ignorance, did you read the article at all? Bakare gave 5 reasons, very strong and valid reasons at that. Find somebody to read and explain it to you.

5 reasons up there. not even Igbo, but delta Igbo. Dr Iweala is/was more than qualified for that job. tribe =1/5 of stated reasons.

Use your brain, not your tribal sensors.

yeah, you right! I bet he has a separate constitution, too. Nigeria is his beetch. grin

I must say it is not him alone, the rich and past military leaders, especially from the North, determine who becomes the president....after their interests have been accommodated that is.

#lobbying?

By the way it's false report. It was Iweala who disapproved self when Obj hinted her. Trying to misconstrue facts, we were already adults when it happened.. May God forbid the pastor making these inciting and false statements.

"And he (Buhari) asked him, what do you think he (Obasanjo) is up to? He said ‘you know our boss, there is something up his sleeve"


I have been saying this thing since, anything Obasanjo has a hand in is never good! Shey youve all heard Buhari say it now?
That doesn't mean Obasanjo didn't have a hand in (finally) bringing Buhari back to power. but like you said, look where that has got us.

Thank God you mentioned this like i did. Haven't we been noticing the downward trend Bakare has been for years. We still haven't forgotten his statements during the 2015 elections and have also seen how he has become mute suddenly since this administration took over. For someone who has been criticizing the performance of Governments in power since 1976 to go mute all of a sudden.. I won't judge, i will only declare the truth and won't change the truth, making it a lie.. as many of the elders in our society have been projecting themselves lately.

God hep we truth seekers

My dear brother,those guys are so gullible that i sometimes wonder how they manage to identify colors.
To them, everything is about tribalism.

For the following reasons: ‘1. Ngozi Iweala is Delta Igbo; you have solved the problem of south-south and south-east. 2. She’s a Christian, faith balance. 3. She is a woman, gender balance. 4. She is a former minister of finance and external affairs, it is called experience, and currently, her position in the World Bank gives her global exposure,..’.

Buhari rejected NOI just because she was serving under PDP. I don't know when we're going to look beyond party affiliations when planning to serve the nation.


Mtchew......
You people should try to be objective for once,this woman has nothing to offer for Nigerians,what was the impact of NOI during GEJ regime despite being one of the decider,abeg leave sentiment alone,Osinbajo is far better than her 10times.

How do you know it is falsehood by pastor Tunde,were you involved in the conversation?
At least, He was the person directly involved.
The only persons qualified to discredit this are NOI,Obj,PMB or Nasir El-Rufai

Sigh....


Obasanjo might have wanted to but Buhari knowing she was not a political weight to seal the North-Western alliance, which was the master plan of the APC. An Okonjo would have blown it all up!

Obasanjo's proposed combo was an imminent failure in the making which would have retained PDP as the ruling party.
This happened in 2011.
