OBASANJO DEBUNKS MEETING NLC LEADERSHIP TO ENDORSE BUHARI FOR SECOND TERM
‘Obasanjo will continue to exercise his right to free speech and no amount of hate speech will assuage Nigerians who are in need of a brand new leadership. The mediocre performance of Buhari cannot be described by anybody as ‘superlative’ even by morons not the least President Obasanjo’, he said.
Obasanjo said, from the Buhari/Trump meeting, he only saw through three points: (1), the US will continue to reduce purchase of crude oil from Nigeria and there is nothing Nigeria under Buhari can do about; (2), the US will export agricultural products to Nigeria and Buhari’s government will encourage that; and (3) – all the killings taking place in Nigeria by herdsmen are being done by expatriates trained by Gadaffi and no Nigerian is to blame and Buhari cannot do anything to stop it.
‘For whatever the meeting was worth, President Buhari again bungled another opportunity to self-redeem. No wonder President Trump ordered him in a rather condescending manner to go back home and stop the killings going on in Nigeria! We hope now Buhari will heed Trump’s advice which hopefully will be considered non-abusive’.
The former President emphasized that he is more convinced in his statement of January 23rd and will not change his position, pointing out that no lies, fake news dished out by these desperate and unintelligent supporters is worth believing.
‘Chief Obasanjo understands that the internet has good and bad uses. Those abusing the media should desist from this barbaric act as it will only expose them to greater ridicule at the end of the day. Obasanjo will continue to speak out. He will continue to issue patriotic statements under his signature or cause them to be issued on his behalf under the signature of his media aide’, he declared.
