Am pro-GEJ but I honestly don't like how he takes things with laxity(especially unguarded utterances like this).

And only God knows what this man's problem is (its not age).

What's wrong with obj? Age

What's wrong with obj ? Age

Choi!!!! The wet weed from ota farm too tight. Baba I hail oooo

Words of wisdom


Meanwhile GEJ is rearing other insurgents like OPC MASsOB n Mend all anti Nigeria groups now wine n dine with GEJ!

With due respect sir,I have some questions for u. I heard the insurgency actually started during your tenure sir or even as an elderly statesman, kindly tell us how u nipped it in d bud that got it escalated to this level? Secondly,how did you know that boko haram have legitimate grievances,are u one of the sponsors sir? Finally, if boko haram have legitimate grievances, what do we call that of their victims and every nigerian whose life have been adversely affected by d menace caused by the ins urgency?

I THINK THIS MAN SAID THAT HE CAN NOT TALK AGAIN TILL AFTER THE ELECTION?

Kids are too many on front pages these days with immature comments.Some will just pick the headline without digesting the content.

Gen. Obasanjo has not justified the killings by boko haram nor did he condemn the military actions on the sect.

He stated that the carrot stick approach will bring a lasting solution and prevent pyrrhic victory.

Dear kids above, read the sentence below 10 times for effective comprehension and modify your comments.

" the carrot is those things rightly or wrongly perceived as injustice or grievances that can now be dealt with."

Thank you.

Cut the man some slack joor, bokoharam didn't really start during his tenure, the whole scenario started during yaradua but not that worse, jonathan administration is just too weak to handle bokoharam.

you just have to admit that baba is wrong here. What grievances is he talking about?

First: “They (Boko Haram) have legitimate grievances,”

Then "The response of the government initially was definitely not enough. When Boko Haram started showing their fangs about four years ago, the reaction should have been firm and unmistakable,”


This should be warning to all!

Never join the "Progressives"!

Once you join them, your sense of reasoning is gone!

OBJ is either mentally sick or simply biter!

This s he senior pilot of the "Change" agents.

These are the people calling for "change".

I don think he is, with the strategy of carrot and stick, bokoharam wouldn't have gone out of control.

OBJ is noting bt a traitor
When boko haram emerged as a rag tag Small sect in 2002, OBJ's administration out of negligence allowed them to gain some ground in maiduguri at that time and the then governor, Ali modu Sheriff used them to hound his political enemies. After the elections, he had no use of them anymore and as a result, they started becoming ultra radical and recruiting docile youths (almajiri) for institutionalization of sharia law. OBJ's administration saw all this but turned a blind eye since he allowed the sharia law to thrive in their lands, they did not have much altercation. But the sect continued to expand between Yobe, maiduguri, Bauchi,Zamfara and Adamawa.

By the end of OBJ's tenure, seeing that they may soon become a huge threat to the country's security and peace, President Yar adua's government decided to clamp down hard on them killing over 800 and arresting their leader, Yusuf Mohammed who was later killed extra judicially in Police custody.

The followers went underground for a while to recieve trainning abroad like OBJ said while some trainned with Al Qaeda in the maghreb(AQIM) here in africa. Until they came back in 2011 not only to revenge but start what is now a global jihad in the country and they have morphed into a highly trainned and organized group ever since. The fall of Libya's strong man, Gaddaffi led to a take over of Libya's military armoury by jihadists fighting in the country and subsequent distribution to affiliate groups all over Africa. Boko haram duely got theirs which empowered them to face our under equipped military and the resultant declaration of a caliphate but for resilience of men of the military they have been unable to establish a state. The painful thing is sheer waste of lives as well as destruction of private and public properties.

OBJ governmental incompetence in the area of security lead to the epidemic of oil bunkering/oil theft ,gun running ,hostage taking/ransom fee ,during this epoch our national earning in terms of sale of crude to the international market dropped ,OPEC quota became a mirage for the OBJ government and nigeria oil sale proceed drops to its all time low,during this period OBJ was also clueless to arrest the situations,someone should also call baba attention to the high level incompetence of it's administration so as to set the records, more also to do a comparative analysis of government to government and security peer review ,infact it can be said that OBJ government opens up what can be refers to as a new chapter in oil bunkering or should I call it cowboy oil theft,yes under it's watch GUNRUNING became the order of the day. brother and sisters friends and foes, during this epoch baba also watch and allow hostage taking to become a norm and legitimate bussiness dealing and up-till today this norm has now spread like a ravaging cancer to all the nooks and cranny of the nigerian state thanks to baba sit- down look policy....someone must also remember to inform baba that under it's watch,militants chased away multi-national corporations and staffs. when baba was unable to defend the expatriate they all decided to flee and abandon there businesses in this region due to the high-level of insecurity..militants were very very proactive and coordinated in pipe line bombing which eventually depicted the nigeria and global oil projection...at this junction I will urge OBJ to concentrate more energy and strategies on how he can secure APC presidential ticket in proxy for kwankwaso because the scheming is already on and he should stop playing GOD On GEJ .he should emulate the virtues of an elder statesman e.g kenneth kaunda MADIBA

It's now I believe that Obasanjo is part of the politicians that are romancing with Boko Haram in a bid to rubbish Jonathan's government. Boko Haram was sponsored by politicians who never wanted Jonathan to lead this country. But they've failed because we are winning the war against Boko Haram

#NeverAgain shall we listen to disgruntled politicians who are self-centred and are ready to spill innocent blood to make the country ungovernable

#NeverAgain shall we run from terror. We shall fight Terrorism and bring it to an abrupt end.

#NeverAgain

Obasanjo reiterated his carrot-and-stick approach to solving the insurgency by the sect, adding that the heat that the sect was facing from the military at the moment could force it to dialogue with the government.

Baba talking about dialogue.........

BH was granted amnesty and they threw it @ the face of govt, how did OBJ educational policy affect the North positively, May the loses that BH victims has suffered in the hands of BH come upon anyone that thinks BH has a genuine reason for their bloodbath.

This is a big low from a *statesman*, iOBJ is becoming senile daily and should be in a retirement home, he is part of the problem of nigeria.

Do we need to carry megaphone and plackards to tell OBJ how irrelivant he is to this country. He should make do with his loot. Even in his own state he lost all to APC.

And the Udi saga is still lingering, blood sucking general.
Without you, we would reclaim all the lost seats including Lagos.

WE ARE WINNING THE WAR





Obasanjo, Beachland Estate And Unbridled Corruption
By Jide Ayobolu November 1, 2006

President Olusegun Obasanjo since 1999 has said severally that his government will work relentlessly to curb the menace of corruption that has systematically led to the development of underdevelopment. In his maiden speech, president Obasanjo said nothing will be spared in the war against corruption, and that there will be no untouchables. But in the fight against corruption, the president that has presided over the affairs of NNPC since 1999, but has not explained the missing N311billion that should have been paid into the revenue account, and Nigerians are eagerly waiting to know what actually happened to the said amount. Secondly, it was reported that N84billion was missing in NPA, involving a bigwig of the ruling PDP, hence, the EFCC has been lily-livered to make public its findings since, the main dramatis personae is an alter-ego of the president, again, Nigerians want to know what really happened in NPA. Also, where is the N6.4billion that was collected for the controversial presidential library that is adjudged to be illegal?


Also, Chief Dan Etete, who recently came to the country to do some hatchet jobs for the president to smear the integrity and credibility of vice president Atiku Abubakar, in 2002, in some foreign newspapers published a very interesting rapacious and graft story about president Obasanjo, according to Etete, “Obasanjo must not hold the view that Nigeria have very short memory or that they do not care. How does he explain his attempts to dispossess his erstwhile friend, Chief Egunjobi, of the Beach Land Estate? In his first coming as Head of State, he claims he built the estate and on leaving office he took his former friend Chief Egunjobi to court and shamelessly proclaimed that he used the latter as a front. He did not tell the court, as Nigerians wanted to know, how he came by the money to build the estate. The court saw through him and struck out his law suit. Two issues immediately arose from the outcome of this escapade. The first is the serial nature of the activities which we believe reflect Obasanjo’s corruption. Having claimed before a Nigerian law court the Estate belonged to him; he must answer the question as to where he got the resources to build it? His salary and allowances, while in office, are known to Nigerians. The court refused to be deceived and with him unwilling to declare the sources of the finance for the Beach Land Estate, the court made it clear he did not prove he owned the Estate. The other matter arising from this episode is the character of General Obasanjo is a covetous person. He must own what he sees and he sees and likes even if it means illegally dispossessing the rightful owner. It could have been he saw Chief Egunjobi’s beach land estate; he liked it and therefore, wanted it. In his characteristic style, coveted it and Bingo, it had to be his. The only limitation at the time is that he forgot he was no longer Head of State. When it dawned on him, he wondered what to do, he chose the option of litigation, half forgetting there were judges who guard their integrity jealously in Nigeria.” However, Obasanjo has since taken over the ownership of the contentious estate, but the fact remains, where did he get the money to build that massive estate?

In a similar development, a group called Nigeria Anti-corruption Collective has asked the president some very salient questions that bother on his crude acquisitive proclivities of the collective patrimony of the Nigerian people. The posers go thus, who owns Ajaokuta Steel Mills, Delta Steel Complex, Jos Steel Rolling Mills, Oshogbo Machine Tools and Itakpe Iron Ore Company? Who is deceiving whom? Who is the largest shareholder in UBA? Who bought out the shares of Akeem Bello-Osagie and threatened him with arrest and imprisonment? Who was the largest shareholder in First Interstate Bank Ltd, before the merger into Unity Bank? Who owns the majority shares in Virgin Nigeria? Who gave the airline special facilities at the international wings of our airports at the cost of N400million? Why does Virgin Nigeria not pay parking and landing fees and purchase aviation fuel at a discount, while at the same time competing in the same market with other local airlines? Why should one man set up Transcorp, devalue our national assets, obstruct free and fair competition and sell everything to himself and family? If not, why did Transcorp purchase almost the entire NITEL for $750million, when Globacom bidded $1.2billion for the same property? Not too long earlier, Vmobile sold a fraction of its shares for $1.2billion. How could all of NITEL with a vast net worth of digital exchanges, armoured cables, three international gateways, among others, sell for only $750million? This one man operates six farms in six states of the federation. What is the source of the funds for these massive investments? What is the deal between this one man with the owner of Mittal of India? Why the hurry in granting Block 246 to the Indian conglomerate? Is Nigeria for sale?

Apart from the numerous unanswered questions posed by the group above, the following questions have asked Mr. President, who is the real owner of Obajana cement factory? Who is the owner of Eleme Petrochemicals? Who has the largest shares in Arik Air? Why did the government sell the Nigeria Airway Hanger to this airline not through bidding, negotiation? Why did government allocate lucrative international routes to Arik Air even before it bought planes for operation, when other existing airlines doing very in the country were denied such a priviledge? Who are the people that import fuel into the country since 1999? Who has the largest shares in Transcorp? How was NICON HILTON HOTEL Abuja acquired by Transcorp? What is EFCC doing about the Israeli arms deal where some government official made about $100million for themselves? What is EFCC doing about the tokunbo presidential planes that were bought as new? Where is the report into the probe of COJA? Where is the report on Mantu, about he mismanaged the haji N400million funds?

The fact of the matter is that, until this questions are vividly answered we cannot claim to be fighting corruption, this is because, this are cases that concern the president directly and Nigeria wants categorical answers on them. It is also very important to point out that, the EFCC is the creation of the president, he appoints the chairman of the anti-graft body, he approves its funding, also, when cases are to be investigated it gets the nod of the president, in the same token, after investigations are completed, the findings and conclusions are submitted to the president for his perusal, in this type of situation, it becomes very difficult for the EFCC to do a very thorough job, it can not be in any way independent, it does what the president wants it to do, and what the president does not want, it will never do. It is in this regard that, EFCC has been aptly described as a tool in the hands of the president to deal with perceived political enemies in a dirty game of political intrigue and vendetta. And, without missing words, this is what has played out in the last few months with regards to EFCC investigation on the PTDF account, this is because, not only is the report lopsided, it is illogical, incoherent and does not add up. Therefore, it can be said that, the fight against corruption as been politized, which has made nonsense of all the attempts to rid the polity of the deadly scourge.

It is, however, very important that the president answer in full details all the questions asked and in the full glare of the public, in addition to this both public and private investigators should be asked to dig deep into the numerous disturbing and worrisome allegations against the president. The president has always carried on as if he is a saint, but in reality, he is no more than a sanctimonious wog, a lot of lip and eye services have been paid to the issue of corruption in Nigeria. Those who claim to be fighting corruption are more corrupt than those they claim are corrupt, and than this the bane of the country today.

Coming from APC's pilot...... I am not surprised.
All facts are on the table about APC's tacit support for bokoharam all aimed at ousting GEJ from office.

What carrot and stick approach could obasanjo be talking about?

Where was he when GEJ invited them for dialogue and was even open for negotiations? He was busy writing open letters about 1000 snipers.

Nigerians Listen ...... Our true enemies are all gatherred in APC. This is the time to end their political relevances and salvage this country.

Say NO to APC.

This man is becoming senile

Baba is a genius. The way to crush insurgency permanently is to know the root of the problem and try to correct that. If not, they would still rise tomorrow.

PDP is Boko Haram, OBJ is the father of PDP..

OBJ is mad..

OBJ is high on excessive APC syrup.
