Former governor of Lagos State and one of the leaders of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has asked Nigeria’s former leader, Olusegun Obasanjo to serve as a navigator for the party.

Tinubu made the call Saturday night, when a delegation of the party’s leaders met with Obasanjo in Abeokuta, capital of the western Nigerian state of Ogun.

“You have come out of tribulation and held the highest position in this country. We are here because of your courage and salient points. Nobody can say he has information more than you,”Tinubu said.

You guys should stop this Obj hype already. Obasanjo cannot even influence the election in his own Ogun state not to talk of Adamawa, Ebonyi, or Anambra. His endorsement is merely symbolic and meant to give Atiku's momentum a boost, nothing more nothing less. This overhyping should stop abeg.

Why are the high profiled politicians running to OBJ(inspite of his inability to deliver his own state) each time the general elections is closer. This signaled that there's somthn they know that we don't.

And what will happen if he changes his mind tomorrow? This is OBJ we are talking about. An unstable egomaniac and egocentric fellow. He is on record for going as far saying 'god' will not forgive him if he supports the same Atiku. Is OBJ God? If he changes his mind tomorrow, are you saying Atiku supporters would desert him and stop 'Atikulating'? His endorsement is only symbolic. Reading more meaning than that into it is just living in a fool's paradise.

History has shown that OBJ backs a candidate he has endorsed to the later, and also whichever candidate he endorses ends up winning. Examples are Yar A'dua, Jonathan and the lifeless one.

you dont get it obj is not a local or regional politician,he is more of a national one .
From his anticidents you will notice that he is involved in who becomes Nigeria president up till date. Yaradua, Jonathan, buhari and now atiku.

Underestimate obj at your own ignorance

Tinubu said Atiku is the best thing that can happen to Nigerians
