Obasanjo On It Again by Iamnavido: 1:22pm On Jan 10, 2015 |
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo said on Thursday he was not ready to sacrifice his life for any political party, but would prefer doing that for Nigeria. Mr. Obasanjo stated this when the Presidential Candidate of the National Conscience Party, NCP, Martins Onovo, paid him a visit at his Hilltop private residence in Abeokuta. “My first pre-occupation is what is best for Nigeria; Nigeria first, party second and any other thing third. Nigeria first means I will not sacrifice anything for the interest of Nigeria but I can sacrifice my own life for the interest of Nigeria, I can’t sacrifice my life for the interest of a party, I will sacrifice my life for the interest of Nigeria,” he declared. Mr. Obasanjo commended the role Gani Fawehinmi, founder of NCP, saying the late lawyer did not only fight injustice but also checked the excesses of governments in power. “In the interest of a better society there is always the need for some people to serve as watchdogs. Fawehinmi throughout his life devoted his intellect and energy to fight injustice, bad governance, corruption and other social vices,” he said.
