Former president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, yesterday said it is insulting and ridiculous to question the academic credentials of APC presidential candidate, retired Gen. Muhammad Buhari.

Speaking at the launch of his book, My Watch, in London, Obasanjo said when he joined the army, it was mandatory that one must have WASC or GCE before enlisting in the armed forces.
He said the requirements were the same when Gen. Buhari joined the army in 1961, adding that even if Buhari did not have the required qualifications then, he had gone through the staff college which is equivalent to a first degree and the U.S. War College which is equivalent to a master’s degree.

“If anybody thinks that I’m illiterate or uneducated after attending many military institutions in the UK, India and the US, they should read my books”, he said, and urged those engaged in Buhari’s qualification debacle to “focus on real issues and stop degenerating into trivialities”.

Obasanjo, who answered questions from the audience on various socio-political issues affecting Nigeria, said he would assess the candidates in the election and “vote for one with the best record”.

The former president remarked that God would not have forgiven him if he had allowed vice-president Atiku Abubakar to succeed him, noting that with his experience, he knew what the job of running Nigeria entailed and who could do it well.

On whether he was overheating the Nigerian polity with his comments, Obasanjo said: “I am not heating anything. When things are going bad and you can’t say anything, you are an accomplice. If anybody can prove that what I am saying is wrong, I will apologise”.

On the Chibok girls, Obasanjo berated the federal government for taking long to acknowledge the incident, but not doing enough to bring back the girls, stressing that though the girls may never come together again, “we must not forget them”.

He said in spite of the problems bedeviling Nigeria, the country’s future is “rosy” and bright, emphasizing that the country faced similar problems in the past, including the civil war but came out stronger.

“God will see Nigeria through. Nigeria will emerge successfully and move up and forward”, he said.

The book launch which was attended by mainly Nigerians in Diaspora, was anchored by Richard Dowden of the Royal African Society, London, and Zeinab Badawi, a renowned television broadcaster.

Ancestors should not be listened to, no matter what..


*modified*
I don't blame OBJ, I only blame the press for regarding this man's talk. His talks is suppose to be seen as a phrase(a mad man's talk)..

THE FREEDOM "MARCH" -

They said he is not electable. Now that it's time to put their claim to test, they are running pillar to post trying to stop the only test that will prove them right or wrong.

They said Nigerians love Jonathan. Now that it's time for Nigerians to show how much they love him, the are afraid to subject him to public test.

They said Nigerians want continuity not change. Now that it's time for Nigerians to speak in favor of continuity or change, they wouldn't let Nigerians make their choices.

They said he's a military despot while they are democrats yet, he want elections and they hate elections.

They said their reason for the shift is to secure Nigeria from Boko Haram. How could they make Nigeria secure enough for elections in few weeks when they couldn't secure it in 5 years?

They said he is dishonest and they are honest yet, he always keep his words while they always break their promises.

We said they are clueless and they said they are prepared yet, it took them a week to elections to realize Nigeria is a security mess that need the concentration of the armed forces to be cleaned at the expense of a promising general election.

They said Nigeria is safe yet, "unsafe" Afghanistan, Iraq and Sudan conducted credible elections where a "safe" Nigeria failed.

Be it February or March, a bad government will remain a bad government that must be sacked. No matter how long you delay the burial of a corpse, the dead never return.

KEEP THE HOPE ALIVE!

Obj is a man of impeccable character capable of doing good and evil in equal proportion, its, however, unfortunate that mostly, the truth is coming from the devil, however, its still the truth.


#SAI BABA
#SAI BUHARI

'Like' if you know that buhari is not an illiterate and he will perform far better than 'literate' jonathan.

Looool funny tho


Change remains constant


Sai Buhari
March4Buhari

Ghen Ghen.. action film continues!

How God take catch them be say Buhari did not just have the certificate, he committed Pejury by lying under oath and complicated the whole thing by releasing fogged results. War college or No war college, Buhari has messed up. As GEJ pursue OBJ go Kenya go launch book na so We go pursue Buhari go meet im brohers for Niger after court deal with him certificate foggery.

Ibori is corrupt - Nigerians.
Ibori is a common thief - London court
A thief is a thief don't use the word corrupt - GEJ

In view of this GEJ is justified.

OBJ stole money, rigged elections, imposed candidates, burnt Anambra Gvt. house in broad day light - OBJ is a thief and he is corrupt

Tinubu Stole money, rigged elections and fogged certificate - Tinubu is a thief and he is also corrupt

Buhari plotted a coup and truncated democracy, tried ppl unjustly, Stole money, told us Abacha is not corrupt, told his supporters to kill, fogged certificate etc - So Buhari is coup plotter, wicked, bigot, tribalistic, sentimental, thief, killer and finally corrupt.


GEJ till 2019.

Obasanjo is getting insane.
Maybe the ancestors are after him for sleeping with his son's wife.

Obasanjo doe not want to die alone, he wants to die with millions of foolish people like him.

Masturbation degree holder in cattle rearering......hediots, dat place him dey 4 bush dey pursue cow

Na Baba give GMB masters?

We are still asking for his primary school certificate baba is talking masters.

Na Baba go still ruin that party called APC.

Very true.. I have never seen were any of those international media houses asked buhari about his educational background or his certificates because it doesn't just make any sense to them. Buhari doesn't have his secondary school certificate and yet he rose to the rank of a military general

Even Gej minister of defence has stated clearly that he and buhari attended the same secondary school. PDP has failed Nigerians, and no amount of lies and propaganda can save them from the disgrace they will face on march 28. They may have successfully sold this absurdity of a lie to their dumb followers who are swimming in the pool of gullibility, but the sane Nigerians will never buy this crooked lie by the PDP.

Obasanjo on d 28th of march 2015 will be buried politically in Nigeria.

we just want to know about his Cambridge WASCE? is that too much to do for Nigerians?
He has PHD
He has Masters
He is this
he is that.......
Some Nigerians want to know why Pa Buhari, perjured himself when he has all these qualifications. But if you will people will not do this for some Nigerians, then know that if per chance Buhari wins......the media, the internet opposition, will keep using his seeming 'iliteracy' to attack him.
just as Jonathan was called Clueless
Yaradua, Baba go slow
Buhari will be papa I go school but not certificate

I agree some of us Nigerians can be gullible. But one question for Buhari supporters, why commit perjury?

buhari didn't lie under oath and buhari didn't forge any school cert. Those are just baseless lies that are not holding any water.

Was it the principal that forged the certificate on his behalf. God will judge you all. GEJ till 2019

I thought this man said he wount make any public comment again until after the Poll? Obasanjo can go to hell and say whatever he likes!

ok let's use you as case study. You were asked to present your secondary school cert at an organization you are working for. You now when back to your former school to get the cert. The principal of the school presented the cert to you. Now will the organization you were working for accuse you of forgery after you presented the cert to them?

Well the above scenario is the perfect example of general buhari's case.

and this ur clueless madman that cannot hold this thieves,is d saTAN we have this country,since we have found God sent,who can catch these thieves,and recover our missing $20b,2.6 trillion naira subsidy theft,and many more,no need for election,gej should just humble himself,and said,since i cannot do it,let me hand over to buhari who can do it.

Mehn, dis cert issue is becoming boring. I keep asking if d issue of certificate is relevant since it was never raised by inec on d number of times buhari has contested. Only inec can qualify n disqualify candidates yet it has nt done so. So y dis energy bn dissipated on dis cert saga when thr r issues to be confronted.

The coast is now clear for us to march for Buhari

Obasanjo is a disgrace. let buhari show us his certificate. seriously, is Obj drunk when he said this?

Even in your analogy, both individuals will be arrested. Simple as ABC. Till date, the general has not disproved that forged document too. You know the truth but sentiment has overshadowed you.

He didn't commit any perjury. If you analyze critically how PDP has gone about the whole drama, you'd understand that the certificate in question was removed from his file to create the storm.

I want to believe that Buhari is not daft to say the military board had his certificate if he didn't submit one there.
