It seems like all the US Presidents on official visit to Nigeria were all hosted by Obasanjo.

Obasanjo is a very diplomatic man of international acceptance and recognition, and very proactive. He knows how to fight for us outside Nigeria (not mentioning Bakassi Peninsula anyway).
I can remember how he was globetrotting when he became the president in 1999 and appealing to the Nigerians in diaspora, giving them the hope of better life at home.

Nigerians were not treated badly, killed and victimized outside our shores when he was the president like how it is nowadays.

In the heat of the Niger Delta crisis, it was already beginning to affect global oil prices and threatened the reelection of George Bush Jr. He then asked Obasanjo to come to the US to see him. Obasanjo retorted that as at the time he (Obasanjo) was President for the first time, even George Bush's father had not become President. That of George Bush wanted to see him, he should come to Nigeria. Omo, George Bush Jr. ran to Naija o.

Besides that, even Ghafaffi came for an African Union summit in Abuja, he brought about 200 female bodyguards, all armed. Obasanjo ordered that if Ghafaffi wanted to step into Abuja, all his bodyguards should be disarmed. Ghafaffi threatened to trek from the airport to Abuja City centre in protest, Obasanjo didn't even answer him. They were disarmed and nothing happened.

During Obasanjo's time, the Queen of England also came to Nigeria for the CHOGM event. That event brought in dozens of foreign leaders.

So after all these state visits, how have they impacted positively on the masses.

This man has been feeding fat on Nigeria's wealth for a long time.

Meanwhile, bubu after globetrotting round the universe, was only good at attracting South Sudanese, Libya, Chadian presidents etc.. Instead of attracting the likes of Trump, he was declared "lifeless" on national t.v by the same Trump

Bubu is a local champion swears.
