Please my brethren stop this argumentum ad hominem. Yes, no doubt Mr Obasanjo is bad but even the madman has something to say. Stop attacking his bad personality but see reasons in what he is trying to say. I am not defending him or the legislatures but let us look into his comments critically. "Forget about the past, think about the present for better future." That is the point I sieved from above. Good luck our people.

Despite the veracity in his words, almost all comments above me are critical of the former president.

Reason: People pay more attention to what we do than what we say!!!

As long as Obasanjo didn't perform satisfactorily his tenure as president, he lacks the moral justification to cast aspersions on others.

Be that as it may, these overfed thieves in the hollow chambers are really a clog in our wheel of progress.

There's nothing more insulting to us that these thieves having shrouded their humongous salaries in secrecy.

Nigerian voted this people in to the NA , and am sure the Naija will vote them in again because naijas are all the same ( 98.99 % ) ..Naija the vicious cycle ,omo oles

Consistently the only ex-President of Nigeria to come out publicly to speak out against corruption and bravely label others corrupt.

Coincidentally, also the only ex-President of Nigeria with international relevance and which the international community have regards for.

Obj should be ashamed. He's the genesis of all the problems Nigeria is facing today under this democratic government. He never support prevailance of rule of law during his regime. His agitation for third-term bid was truncated by this same house he spoilt with huge amount of money to achieve his selfish ambition. Is it now he realized that the Nigeria House of Assembly is full of thieves and looter? You ought to have remain silent like Gen. Oladipo Diya and gain some respect. Shameless old man!

Obj was a major contributing factor to nigeria problem. Wasn't it this same obj that was actively supporting political godfathers who were dashing tickets to criminals during obj tenure? Wasn't it during the time of obj that omisore became a senator from inside prison?what about andy uba ,who had cases of fraud against him yet obj made sure he bacame a governor. Obj himself brought many criminals into the house,senate and state govt so he shouldn't be calling some people theives. And just like it was said when he made a similar accusation some years back,if the people in the house and senate are thieves then obj himself is the father of thieves. He brought many of them into political relevance

Baba talk true if they have any shame at all they should be asking for their wages to cut down now.
when obj was in power ,did he ask for his own salary to be slashed? Do you know the number of times obj kept globetrotting all over the world saying he was searching for foreign investors to come to nigeria?do you know how much he was been paid as estacode for each journey? That was the time ,people started asking obj whether he was a president or foreign affairs minister. Gani raised this issued and when gani calculated the cost of each journey in terms of presidential allowances in foreign currency,people knew why obj was doing it. Don't let anybody or any politician FOOL you with sweet words or by calling someone thieves. They are all a bunch of hardened criminals. Obj govt and tenure witnessed collosal amount of corruption ,so obj has no moral right to be calling somebody a thief.and if he insists on calling the criminals in the house and senate thieves then he obj is the father of thieves .

Now,this thread shows the future of Nigeria. Sorry to say but u all are dumb!!! Someone who knows better than u all is stating out points,only for him to be insulted. Bunch of Hypocrites. No wonder they can never give youths chance cos of their foolishness.

ATTACK THE MESSAGE AND NOT THE MESSENGER
As if your dear Jonathan is doing better... How dare u compare OBJs regime to GEJs. There is a clear distinction between both. Keep being used as a political tool instead of u all to unite as one and kick against any form of corruption. Be it APC or PDP...

I am glad that we are hearing from the horses mouth, OBJ is talking out of exprience, is a game he has been into for years,the so called NAAS members are not only thieves and looters they are law breakers,this people has milked Nigeria dry, If this looters are sincere why must they be talking about impeachment now considering the security challenges we are into and knowing fully well that election is at hand,since four years, they didn't notice the inpunity, corruption and inconpetence.The truth is that GEJ did not comply with there request that is why they have resulted to black mail and intimidation, they are acusing GEJ of coruption do they have the moral justification to do that, imagine pot calling kettle black,those of them who are looting the weaith of this nation while the poor masses are suffering will never end well. IN JESUS NAME AMEN
