Obasanjo brought in mobile Telecommunication into Nigeria. That's the greatest achievement by any Nigerian leader. Stable power supply is the only thing that can surpass that achievement. @OP....... If OBJ failed to do this, you won't be able to come here to type this trash. OBJ built Nigeria's best and highest capacity stadium, the Abuja National Stadium. OBJ formed anti-corruption agencies such as EFCC and ICPC and were most effective under his administration than ever. Nigeria's GDP was growing by 7% under OBJ contrary to 2% in 1999 despite selling oil at $30 per barrel. OBJ raised Nigeria's Excess reserves from $2 billion in 1999 to $45 billion in 2007. OBJ spearheaded the integration of Gulf of Guinea commission (GCC) OBJ and Gadaffi established an healthcare system which benefit the whole of africa. The budget of the heathcare system was $30 billion. Nigeria and Libya vow to contribute 50% of it. OBJ in his military regime ensures the independence of Zimbabwe and Angola. OBJ secured $18 billion debt pardon from london and paris club. OBJ played a pivotal role in regeneration and repositioning of African Union (AU) In 2008, UN secretary general, Bank Ki Moon appointed Obasanjo as a special envoy on great lakes region due to its achievement in democracy through out africa. OBJ was part of those who negotiated the release of Nelson Mandela. OBJ reduced Nigerian debt from $35 billion to $5 billion. OBJ appealed for the admission of Nigeria into commonwealth after Nigeria was expelled during Abacha Regime. OBJ formed the Nigeria National Petroleum Commission (NNPC) OBJ built 2 refineries for Nigeria. OBJ organise FESTAC 77 which showcase the cultural heritage of Nigeria to the world. 0BJ encourages commercial farming by establishing his own farm for others to follow. OBJ created more Job opportunity than any other time in Nigeria's history with the Telecommunication and Banking system. OBJ launches Nigeria first sattelite space, Nigeria Sattelite I. It ensure good internet and mobile telecommunication system. Drastic Development of Abuja city under Mallam Nasir El Rufai as minister which restore the earlier set masterplan. Reformation of Banking sector which produce more job for Nigerian youth. Poverty Eradication programmes through NAPEP. OBJ created enabling environment for investors into nigeria. OBJ instituted compulsory retirement for Nigerian Military General which could plot a coup and lead us back to military government. OBJ constructed Nigeria's National theatre which gives the country good images around the world. Anyone should counter this with Jonathan achievement if he/she can. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

in addition Obj commisioned 11 power plants, by the way one of them was recommisioned by GEJ few weeks ago. The railways, 2nd Niger bridge and privatization of PHCN were all conceptualized by OBJ. He also left huge reserves and saved some money in the excess crude account. All his successor needed to do was to continue his programmes using the money he saved.... the rest as they say is history. |

Telecoms reform Banking reform Pension reform Nafdac reform Anti-corruption crusade through EFCC and ICPC. Power reform Debt forgiveness Increased national reserve from 2bn to 35bn Created visible and verifiable employment. Created the non-existent middle class Built Abuja National Stadium Nigeria was respected in the International commmunity, notwithstanding that Nigeria was a pariah state when he took over. Niger is the one summoning us nowadays and Morocco is refusing to pick our call. Na wa o. Equipped 5 Teaching hospitals Railway reform UBE programme School feeding programme. Remember the guy inherited almost zero infrastructure country with looted treasury. OBJ does not need NTA or AIT to be running propaganda adverts for him because even the cattle seller in Kaura Namoda, fish seller in Ogoja and yam flour trader in Igbeti can see it and testify to it. I will like to see Jonah's the king of trans-deformation achievements. 2 Likes 1 Share |

OP People have listed so many achievements of obj regime but I will add just one more. Obj instituted the local content initiative in the oil and gas sector. This alone created and is still creating more jobs than YOUWIN and other scams of this administration. Major procurement and expertise used to come from abroad but now, there are some classes of equipment and manpower that must be given to Nigerians. Now I hope you have learnt something new this Monday morning 1 Like |

During Obasanjo's tenure Nigeria lost more people to communal,ethnic and sectarian violence,including death by political assassinations. I can still remember the emasculation of our Armed Forces by Obasanjo.He did it when he came into power in 1999 under the pretext that he was professionalizing the Army and stopping them from planning coups.His minister for defence,Theuphilus Danjuma and Rabiu Kwankwanso oversaw the destruction of the Army,even as massive money was voted in the defence budget. |

gists:Compare that with the achievement of gej of empowering only militants. The only group of people gej has affected directly in the oil and gas sector are the militants (with multi-billion dollar security contract) and the sacked oil workers dues to the extremely high level of oil theft (inspite of the security contract given to ex-militants). Now the dude has expanded the juicy contract to include another set of militants in the SW i.e OPC GEJ is only concerned about pleasing/meeting the insatiable needs of militants |

I think the telecoms sector created thousands of jobs in hundreds of thousands.To me, that was a huge achievement. Obasanjo did reform the banking system and that up income levels for stakeholders in that sector. The IPP and NIPP stations were built He constructed Abuja stadium and reformed the FCT He secured over $25billion income for Nigeria thru debt forgiveness He started anti corruption drive in Nigeria He changed NEPA to PHCN preparing the ground for unbundling of a comatose enterprise He started the railway resuscitation Through his earlier policy, allowed many Nigerians to own cars, remember the season of Opel? Obasanjo picked Nigeria from the burdens of the military, killed the ambition of IBB Obj made some mistakes and the biggest was to give GEJ to Nigeria 1 Like |
