Olusegun Obasanjo, Nigeria's former President explained why he forgave the Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in an interview with BBC Yoruba, stated that if he choose to expose those in Buhari government they’ll not only go to jail, they’ll go to hell. 


Obasanjo who compared Atiku with President Muhammadu Buhari, said though the PDP Presidential candidate is not a messiah, he is however far better than the incumbent President.

"WHAT I AM SAYING IS THAT WHERE WE ARE TODAY; OUR PRESENT SITUATION, IF YOU LOOK AT THOSE WHO ARE THERE TODAY AND OUR BOSS (BUHARI), I INSIST THAT ATIKU WILL DO BETTER THAN THEM.

“THIS IS NOT A PROPHECY. THOSE IN GOVERNMENT TODAY, IF WE EXPOSE THEM, ALL OF THEM WILL ENTER HELL; THEY WILL NOT ONLY GO TO JAIL.  THEY WILL GO TO HELL. WHOEVER THAT GOD DOES NOT EXPOSE HIS SINS TO THE PUBLIC IS THE PERSON WHOSE SECRET IS KEPT.

“I DID NOT SAY HE (ATIKU) WILL BEHAVE LIKE JESUS.  I DID NOT SAY HE WILL BEHAVE LIKE PROPHET MUHAMMED, BUT HE WILL DO BETTER, IN FACT TWICE BETTER THAN  WHAT WE HAVE AT PRESENT.”HE SAID.

Obasanjo who admitted that Atiku was quite remorseful when he came to him to seek for forgiveness, added;

“THOSE WHO TALKED ABOUT WHAT I SAID ABOUT ATIKU, WHAT ABOUT WHAT I SAID ABOUT BUHARI? HIS PERFORMANCE IS EVEN WORSE THAN WHAT I THOUGHT.

“I SAID BUHARI DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ECONOMY. HAVE YOU NOT SEEN IT? I SAID HE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS, HAVE YOU NOT SEEN IT?"

The former President who accused Buhari of nepotism, in giving priorities to his ethnic group when appointing people into  sensitive positions, added;

“LOOK AT WHAT IS HAPPENING, THE PERSON THAT IS LEADING US SAYS HE CANNOT APPOINT ANY OTHER TRIBES INTO THE POSTS HE CONSIDERS SENSITIVE BECAUSE HE DOES NOT TRUST THEM.  IF HE CANNOT TRUST MY TRIBE AND YOUR TRIBE WHAT IS THE BENEFIT? AND HE STILL WANTS MY TRIBE AND YOUR TRIBE TO VOTE FOR HIM. SO, HE CAN ASK US TO VOTE FOR HIM BUT HE CANNOT TRUST US TO BE APPOINTED INTO SENSITIVE POSITIONS. WHAT IS SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE IS ALSO SAUCE FOR THE  GANDER.

“IF YOU DON’T TRUST US, HOW DO YOU WANT ME TO TRUST YOU ? IF YOU TRUST ME AND I MISBEHAVE REPLACE ME WITH ANOTHER PERSON.  BUT IF ONLY YOUR MATERNAL AND PATERNAL RELATIVES ARE THE ONLY PEOPLE YOU CAN APPOINT BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONLY PEOPLE YOU CAN TRUST…

“IN NIGERIA, WHERE WE HAVE TRIBES NUMBERING ABOUT 500,  YOU NOW SAID YOU COULD NOT TRUST SOME PEOPLE . THAT IS WHAT WE ARE SAYING.”

On Buhari’s economic policies, Obasanjo said;

 “LOOK AT OUR ECONOMY, IS IT THE WAY IT SHOULD BE? OUR ECONOMY CAN NEVER DEVELOP IF FOREIGN INVESTORS DO NOT COME TO  INVEST IN  THE  ECONOMY . BUT, AS IT IS , THEY ARE NOT COMING INTO THE COUNTRY AND THEY WILL NEVER COME.”

He further disclosed that Boko Haram insurgents are now more deadlier, than they were before the present administration.
