what a statement, did obasanjo create social media or was social media even in existence when telecom entered Nigeria?

You may be talking of telecom business that was "approved" by obj for investors after collecting kickbacks but the way you attached social media to it is ironically wrong
Don't argue blindly...

Obasanjo and especially Jonathan are the fathers of press liberty in Nigeria.

Obasanjo laid the building blocks by liberalizing the telecom sector who are the content/service providers.

Jonathan allowed freedom of speech to thrive by choosing not to censor the social media...

The Freedom of Information Acts is also Jonathan's brain child...

Even the telecom business was growing all across the developing world at the time. This was something that was driven by private ventures, and government can't possibly take credit for it. Was Obasanjo going to say "hey we don't want cell phones in Nigeria"? It's beyond laughable when people say this is one of Obasanjo's achievements.
