Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos 

Senator Anthony Adefuye, a Third Republic senator and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Wednesday said he stands by his words that former President Olusegun Obasanjo is not from the South-  West but an Igboman from Anambra state.

Speaking with Daily Independent, Adefuye who was responding to criticism that has trailed his comment said the former president himself knows he is from the South Eastern part of the country.

"I repeat, Obasanjo is not a Yoruba man. He is an Igbo man from the South-East. His father is from Anambra while his mother is a Yoruba woman". 

"Have you ever heard any other person bear Obasanjo before except him?  Have you seen a man in the category with mark before? Only disputed children at that time were given marks so that they can know their son".  

"It was when they wanted to come and take him by force that they gave him marks". 

"Obasanjo himself knows what I’m talking about and he can’t dispute it because it is not new. A lot of people have written about it before and his father’s photograph was also published in the papers".

"Obasanjo is an Igbo man from Anambra state. And that was why during his tenure for eight years, he completely ignored the South West". 

"Throughout his eight years, he did nothing on the Lagos- Ibadan expressway. But he did a lot for his people in the South-East. He picked five Ministers from Anambra where his father comes from and even appointed the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria from Anambra there" he said.

I remember when Ipob championed this narrative.
Wonder what suddenly changed?

Stupidity taken too far

So Obj didn't appoint Ministers from SW? So he didn't appoint CBN gov from SW?
So Sanusi is from the East ?
Propagandaa & lies are for the uninformed

Then Anambra people should come and take their son.

So Igbos have ruled for 8 years under Obasanjo.

Now it is the turn of yorubas.

Wait o

Can this be the reason the yorubas did not vote him in 1999.


But what is his father's village in Anambra.

Wahala

This is what eating Ewedu from morning to night can cause. It is safe to say this mumu man is suffering from mental disorientation.

Is this what SWAGA 2023 is about, to be honest I'm disappointed

Seriously , what's all this for goodness sake

Senator adefuye no need for that history, as it is now no any credible candidates from both south east and south south to become president.

Is that how to play politics

The motive

We all get old, baseless thinkers get old aswell..

Buhari is from Delta State, that is why he appointed the CBN governor from that State.
Even appointed a minister of state for petroleum from there.

Yoruba elders always pulling themselves down

We have noticed you, attention seeker.

So northerners should continue

When elders like this man begin to run mad like this, I don't know what is the faith of the youths .I tell you this type of cheap and stupid propaganda has made it impossible for sw to win any national election.

Does he think that Buhari, APC members and in fact every other Nigerians are fools
Obasanjo did a lot for the yorubas, Ogun state speaks volume.With this kind of desperation, forget about this your self centred ambition of 2023

I don't agree with you that Obasanjo did a lot for Yorubas as presido. In what capacity?

this man is an old fool. .

you will never see legendhero on threads like these.

Although we have been hiding this rumour, president buharia is actually an Igbo man born by Mr. Okonkwo Buharia when he was hawking yams in Katsina and met and fell in love with a Katsina woman. The president has been paying secret visits to his Igbo real family ever since. Yar'Adua was also born by an Igbo bus conductor living in the north and the father hastily left the town.

the ota sango axis became what it is today..a large and huge industrial area due to obasanjo specific effort... go and read about it..without him,that area will not achieved that status..

Nah eh! No qualms
This is so unsophisticated

What difference does it make
The most important thing is that he is a
Nigerian

Since WHEN?

dey should gather all iPOB and give dem owu tribal mark.Dat means iPOB don do their own president

Funny

He may be right

In Igbo language, Obasanjo's name can be interpreted as O-bu-so-njo which is to say He is so ugly.
