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.
Ok, so we have a national carrier that's called "Virgin Nigeria"?
I'm just finding out.
He privatized refineries to Dangote and Otedola, that's why refineries in Warri, Kaduna and PH are working everyday and night and produce our petroleum products.
Dangote refinery is standing in place of our national refineries too?
He revoked the sale of ALSCON from a Nigerian to a Russian company that made their proposal in Russian language and for a price far lesser than what the Nigerian coalition offered.

deep down u, u know Obi will do better than Tinubu, Buhari and Atiku combined but like every Nigerian from d other side, it is better we suffer than allow Igbos rule
you don't know my ethnicity,you're a tribal bigot for assuming people don't want a particular candidate solely because of his ethnicity...the obi you talked about was a VP candidate to Atiku years back and if he had won,he will be in line to contest on a mega party but his greed and impatience led him to betray his boss and pursue his ambition in a lesser party which is typical of a social climber .

Back to performance,we know his antecedents as governor which is subpar and not different from a regular governor performance in Nigeria,if you say I'm lying ,mention one thing he created that's world standard or mention any reasonable thing he did that surpassed a typical Nigeria Governor . The only thing he has his PR and propaganda.

Back to my assertion ,I've not seen a reasonable contender for 2027 .

The way you allow new generation leaders during your tenure ba?

The only new generation we will allow after Tinubu tenure in 2031 to rule Nigeria is ether Prof Imomulen, Kachukwu, Sowore, Ribadu, Kola etc anyone out of this category In age should go and look for his new generation in his village to rule over and not Nigeria meaning obi is dead on arrival it is better Nigeria cease to exit than for obi to ever rule Nigeria we will never let him enter Aso Rock it is a promise we told him to his face.

Posterity will be very kind to this honest man. He seems to be one elder statesman that genuinely want a new and prosperous Nigeria

Not that whiteheaded fraudPhessor and his gang of evil BatAria and Ebola that only want to destroy everything while pretending to their gullible imbecilic followers like they care.

You are only praising obj because he hasn't said anything against that incompetent religious bigot from agulu.
The day he say anything against obi is the day he will automatically become a bad person to you people.

I c an still remember how you people were praising professor Wole Soyinka when he joined in the fight for your imaginary Biafra.

Hypocrites!

Read the below and stop your wailing henceforth.

Yar’Adua was wrong to have reversed sale of refineries by Obasanjo—Ex-NNPC executive director, Ihetu
12th April 2021

Dr Godswill Ihetu, a former Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Nigeria LNG Limited. retired from the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation after attaining the position of Group Executive Director, Engineering and Technology.

Before the end of the administration of President Olusegun Obasanjo in 2007, he sold 51 per cent stake in the Port Harcourt and Kaduna refineries. But the sale was cancelled by his successor, the late President Umaru Yar’Adua, following public outcry, especially opposition from labour unions over the deal. What is your take on this considering what has happened since then?

The fact that the Obasanjo administration tried to sell the refineries showed that there was already a problem with the maintenance and operations. And I think the Obasanjo administration did the right thing. The labour unions will always protest, but unions cannot be running the country. Unions opposed the power sector privatisation. But that was the right thing to do. The issue of to whom the assets were sold or whether they are competent or not is another matter entirely. But the strategic decision was taken, and Obasanjo took the right decision. To reverse it under Yar’Adua, in my view, was not the right thing to do. But I don’t think it was only the unions that opposed it.

There may have been other forces or reasons why the government did what it did. But again, one doesn’t know the details of their reasoning. The only thing I can tell you is that I think Obasanjo took the right decision. In our country, whatever you do, people will always find faults; people will even say it was undersold or there was no negotiation. But at the end of the day, the improvement that would have happened with that sale would overshadow all of these shortcomings, if you may call them that.

The unions don’t realise that when these refineries go into private hands, the facilities are expanded; companies become larger and more employees will be required like we saw in Eleme Petrochemicals. Maybe the NLNG is an extreme example because from day one, the structure was different, but it shows you what private companies can do. It doesn’t have a majority of government in it, and it is expanding, starting from two trains to six and now the seventh train is underway.

WizardOfNG:


Exacrl. 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 intellectually 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.
Obasanjo's hypocrisy is really annoying,a president that was in contention with his then vice Atiku who will steal more money,they both built universities as sitting president and vice president.Personally I don't take Obasanjo seriously at all,I have no respect for him.

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..
No politician is a saint but from one year of this administration i will say president Tinubu lacks empathy, he has no conscience, he is mean and gives no Bleep about the masses his supporters inclusive. He couldn't allow his supporters celebrate or enjoy for some months but just thundered subsidy is gone from his inauguration center and some persons were jumping up. Wetin I know say the breakfast dey go round where ever u dey for Naija the breeze go touch u, if e no touch u e go touch ur village people

Obasanjo that was trying to be lifetime President and began the corruption of Ghana must go NASS because of that greed? We need to bring back history so that such idiots will not have mind to speak in public. Obasanjo need to return the billions stolen for power. This man wrecked this country morally. I know he is angry his unpatriotic and Undemocratic national anthem has been thrown out.

Well we have disciplined people but they are never interested in politics because of criminals who gather together for selfish reasons.

Truly leadership should be forced on some individuals who do not really aspire for those positions they're the ones who'll actually do well.

All these come and vote for me retards are empty headed.
