He has done his own part, loot his own funds converted the farm meant for operation feed the nation to his personal farm and put this country the way it is.. From obasanjo to tifnubu presently they are all thieves..

Go to Obasanjo Farm and see the number of Transformers he kept there before he left office for the use of his farms and business places.

His Presidential Library, as we were told was a national project. Nigerians built that Library to completion. Today, it's known as Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library, OOPL. I don't know any corruption that's more than this. Go there to see the prices of the rooms in the Hotel.

Obasanjo's inconclusive efforts to restructure Nigeria politically when he was president is the killer punch of today in Nigeria.

Obasanjo was handed over a military constitution, military political structure, military governance system, and above all, 12 states raped the same constitution by adoption of sharia criminal laws under Obasanjo government but he also looked the other way by calling it political sharia.

Return True and Fiscal federalism to Nigeria or go back to the regional government system, or zonal government system.

No messiah of a leader can emerge for Nigeria from the present political structure and governance system of Nigeria.

How do we re-evaluate the world? What do we do? ----- Prof Gambo L. Abdullahi.


Do what other continents and countries did in the past to achieve nationhood and citizens' prosperity.
Avoid the dishonest belief that one day, a messiah of a
leader shall emerge from the extant political structure and governance system of Nigeria. That's like waiting for Godot.
Alternative is do what Europe did after the fall of the Berlin Wall when European politicians tactfully aided the division of the multi ethnic and multi religious countries that once existed in Europe into more manageable countries; because they knew that such multi ethnic and multi religious countries do not normally succeed. Divide Nigeria into more manageable countries.

0001Lagos:
Tinubu has failed and he failed woefully

Was Tinubu not helped by Obasanjo’s inordinate hatred for Atiku, which made him support gbajuẹ Peter Obi who had no chance of winning?

Gerrard59:
The 2023 presidential election is less than seven months away. There are three contenders, even though Peter Obi happens to be largely a pretender in my opinion. Tinubu has chosen Shettima to be his VP candidate, Atiku chose Okowa and Peter chose Yusuf. However, of the trio, Tinubu’s choice is the most controversial as it is a Muslim-Muslim ticket, which is very insensitive to the 100M+ Christian populace. To be honest, this choice increases Tinubu’s probability amongst the Muslim community in Nigeria, especially in the north-west and north-east. This brings me to the topic: Peter Obi cannot win in those regions as they will not vote for a Christian when there are two alternatives where Muslims hold sway. In the north-west, Tinubu has a greater probability of winning there as his combination resonates with the populace. Kwankwaso has said he has no problems with the choice he made but with his platform. This means when push comes to shove, he will step down for Tinubu so that BAT’s chances of winning Kano with a wide margin come to fruition. In the north-east where Shettima and Atiku come from, Peter Obi’s odds further decline as indigenes there will rather their sons than someone else.

In the south-west, Tinubu is expected to win. Don’t allow anyone to deceive you that Tinubu will lose his backyard. Yorubas don’t involve religion during elections as they are roughly divided across three religions amidst themselves. Tinubu is seen as a God figure and when the chips are down, the vast majority will tilt towards voting for the APC. However, there exists a section of Yoruba voters especially the Christians who might not/will not vote for the APC or alternatively abstain from voting due to the insensitivity of Tinubu’s choice considering the wanton killings the Christian community has experienced in Nigeria within the last seven years. The massacre in the Catholic Church at Owo rings a bell. To these people, alternatives exist in Atiku and Peter but here is it: due to what I cannot describe as the rivalry between Igbos and Yorubas, the vast majority of these Yoruba Christians will not vote for an Igbo man. They will/might be shamed, mocked at or derided or whatever, but they won’t vote for Peter Obi and/or rather cast their votes for Atiku. On the other hand, Yoruba Muslims will never vote for an Igbo man, certainly not when an illustrious son of theirs has a strong likelihood of becoming the president.

In the north-central, Tinubu’s prospects are pretty significant as people, especially the Muslims in Kwara will vote for him. The same thing in Nasarrawa, Kogi, and Niger especially as the vast majority of people in IDP camps are Christians. Benue, for instance, has one of the highest concentrations of IDPs thereby making them unqualified to vote. His chances in Plateau and Benue are very low but APC’s structures there can deliver the minimum requirement of 25% to scale through. In the south-south and south-east, Tinubu’s chances are extremely low considering he never campaigned in the south-east and only campaigned in Delta and Cross River states in the south-south during the APC presidential primaries. Effectively, he believes he won’t win in those regions, and rightfully so. In fact, I predict that Tinubu will not campaign during the campaign season in any of the south-eastern states and only in Cross River considering the influence of Okowa in Delta. He might substitute Delta with Akwa Ibom but that is it, just two states in the south-south and none in the south-east. The south-south and south-east together are home to the vast majority of Christians in Nigeria. They will not be receptive to a Muslim-Muslim presidency.

Why are you such a big distortionist and pathetic propagandist liar?

As a private sector PDP capitalist, Obasanjo administration replaced Nigeria Airways with Virgin Nigeria without spending money but made money instead, just as it did with the deregulation of the telecom sector.

He also privatised the refineries to Dangote and Otedola. 17 years after he left office, Obasanjo capitalist PDP approach has been vindicated by the operations of Dangote refinery.

Seasonal tomatoes price in October/November can be compared with the price nine years ago before Tinubu misled us about Buhari, not so

Exactly. Where was state policing under OBJ and where was his fundamental reform of our archaic and inadequate security architecture?

Where was greater regional autonomy, crucial to the development of Nigeria, under OBJ?

Where was the effort, as Tinubu is doing now, to empower local government and make them vital change agent they can be towards Nigeria becoming a developed nation?

Can we talk about how subsidy scamming of Nigeria, that Tinubu has now bravely tackled, was highest under OBJ and literally creating subsidy scam billionaires daily?

I could go on all day suffice to say this is why many, especially intellectual and discerning Nigerians, despise OBj.

They find his hypocrisy nauseating as he did not touch a single fundamental reform, when Nigeria needed so many under him, yet he is always critical of every successor after him.

Very selfish and egotistic man who wants everything to be about him and him alone.
