Haters will not like to hear the truth.

Obasanjo is a very very brilliant man. An outstanding leader, A top general and a fairly decent democrat. A statesmans who love this country dearly bt most importantly he doesn’t reinforce Failure.

AkpaMgbor:
Obasanjo was equally a coward. He allowed the festering of sharia caliphate in the north. He turned the other way when those fanatics started agitating for sharia law in states like zamfara and bornu..it was what led to the 2001 sharia riot where many easterners were massacred and a bloody reprisal followed suit in aba. Yaradua inherited his mess..not all of us forget history easily.

On Sharia there was nothing Obasanjo could do.

Sharia is in the constitution. (How it got there is a long story that dates back to the late 1970's and the arguments over it at the Constituent Assembly that was drawing up the 1979 constitution, and also dates back to the 1950's when the Northern region put in place a sort of muted version of sharia...)..so the only way it could be 'removed' is by an ammendment. (which is a long drawn out process.).

Anyway, the law on Sharia is a compromise. IT left the matter to the states...in essence guaranteeing states like Sokoto and Kano that are over 90% Muslim got it, while states like Kogi and Kwara (where both governors, who were muslim at the time, both openly said they won't implement Sharia)..didn't. It was a compromise of sorts.(It also prevented Sharia from being implemented nationally..ie every state must have a Sharia court)

Also, what happened in Zamfara and other states was that Sharia was extended to criminal law (prior to 1999, Sharia only was for personal law..eg family issues , divorce, etc)

@kerzhim, na.That's not true.It's incumbent on Buhari to winkle out this most repulsive terrorist organisation, which has killed over 30,000 people and displaced millions. Besides, it has become a quasi state that now interlocks and takes over prostrate communities as we've seen in the metamorphosis of Boko Haram into ISWAP.

Nigeria and its many ifs. That's how they said if Buhari is The President.

If Obasanjo is in power today electricity problem would have been solved.
Pls dont quote me

I second

ashacot:


Is it not under the same Obasanjo that insecurity was at its peak in Niger Delta? Did he eradicated it before he left?

Is it not under obasanjo that state of emergency was declared in Pleatue state and I think Benue state because of insecurity? Did he eradicate it?

Was it not under obasanjo that there were multiple Ethnic Riot was happening in Lagos, Delta state, Asaba?

Was it under obasanjo that anambra was deadly for its insecurity?

Mtchew! Make una give FFK him smoke abeg

And he sat down and kept quiet abi? OBJ acted decisively, the facts and records are there for all to see.

seankafor:
if he was so strict, why him forfeit bakasi of Cameroon?

Have you seen a dog barking at lion and moves away? What does that tell You? It simply means you don't have to flex your muscle all the time to show superiority . Sometimes you moving away is show peace and sympathy.

seankafor:
if he was so strict, why him forfeit bakasi of Cameroon?

He fought for it.

It was an international court that asked him to leave it or Nigeria face sanction.

Go and ask.

Agreed

seankafor:

On Bakassi

In 1994, when Nigeria and Cameroon went to the ICJ over Bakassi, we signed an agreement then agreeing to abide by the ruling. In 2002, the ICJ awarded Bakassi to Cameroon.

That's why Obasanjo handed over Bakassi.

(Why we lost the case is another long story)

kerzhim:
What can he do differently? It's easier said when you are not in government. Was it not during his time the militants were having smooth operations in Niger Delta? Oil bunkering was the most lucrative theft. Sometimes, when people like Reno, FFK, Kanu, Fayose and the likes talk, I just shake my head.

Ever since the failure of Atiku to become President of this country, have you ever heard from Reno? The sponsorship is over.

Insecurities would have being the thing of the past if not for political reasons. Besides, where do they get their Guns and logistics from? People that doesn't have free movement.
Abegi! Na one Political element dey sponsor them jor.

you have said it all brother,how many culprits were arrested for killings during Sharia crisis in North and the inability to arrest culprits then lead to impunity of killing in this country

FFK should go and eat shit. Was it not under same Obasanjo that Northern Governors violated the Nigerian Constitution by implementing Sharia in their states which led to the commencement of Boko Haram In Borno state. Some times these failed Nigerian politicians want to rewrite history...

helinues:
Double mouth FFK.

Not double mouth.This is a fact.

ffk, the most stupid man in Nigeria!

boman2014:
Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode is of the opinion that if former President ''Olusegun Obasanjo had been in power today, Boko Haram would have been history.''

Sharing his opinion via his Twitter handle, FFK wrote

A very stupid man. A bastard from Ile Ife

kerzhim:
Have you been there before?

u obviously mentally impaired or malnourished to ask such when it simply meant gtfoh!!! Like step aside humans are congregating not orangutans

And nah police he go use not military

ACCORDING TO OBASANJO. THIS IS THE TRUE CHARACTER OF FFK

Na so. Here they come again. After hyping the present Head of State as an ex-military super hero swooping down to conquer and deliver. Today it is the Service Chiefs that are the lightning rods of government's aecurity inadequacies.

Nigeria loves her feudalism. Few aee interested in the institutions thatdeliiver political hype and propaganda. Few even have an idea of how a government should operate in a democratic dispensation to deliver dividends. Its always name dropping, title hailing without a single empirical evidence of potential performance.

Poor quality citizenship can never and should never expect good quality leadership.

The truth is that in a functional democracy the military should be able to handle security matters even if there is no President or Head of State in office for any period of time. The military is an Institution. What democratic leadership should bring is no more than policy framework to sustain and grow institutions, period. The competence of any institution on any one operational matter is not a function of changing political leadership.

Donald Trump on his own cannot make the military more or less competent than it is. He can decide to go to war or not. He can decide to make cuts or increase military budgets if he likes. All these have to do with projecting power and the politics of using the military. But he cannot make the military more or less professional and capable because it is an institution that has its tradition and doctrines. That is what makes an institution an institution.

We must understand thisas Nigerians and begin to demand from leadership the right way of doing things. FFK is just playing to the gallery as usual.

obj still fear God more than many of our past leaders. I think he could have managed this security issue more better, if he is still in power.

Niggur would have nuked the entire stare . Both the good, bad and ugly

Same Obasanjo that this evil Boko Haram started during his tenure and got out of hand during the tenure of the ineffectual buffon?!

Mumu FFK won't stop amusing us.
All his foolishness is only for his fellow zombies anyways.
You will see them masturbating to this foolish news n
soon.
Just watch.......



You are a very wise man.




You know those hypocrites so much sir.
They are the real problems of this nation.
Hypocrisy is their number one Characteristics.
Shame on them all.

FFK, All the money you stole and crumbled Our only National Airways as the Looting Minister of Aviation during the era of the ineffectual buffon will be your downfall Mumu FFK.
See him mumu mouth.....

Sorry I didn't know that you can insult people like.

I thought that you are different.

fallout87:
If we are being honest OBJ wouldn't tolerate much of the insecurity which plagues Nigeria.

He was stubborn and very imperfect in many areas but with security he wouldn't mess around or have ulterior motives or agendas which play with Nigerian lives.

You are very much as right... No one in this world that doesn't have his or her bad...

seankafor:

That has nothing to do with strictness now, if he wanted he could hold on & you know this. Every leader has his area of interest.

All of these put together are still not compared to boko haram killings & you know.

But that same Obasanjo was unable to stop the Niger delta militants from operating. FFK, should stop patronizing us.
