RED ALERT warning to GMB - RUN!!! from Obsanjor

Like the popular saying - "Advise no be curse", President elect Gen Mohammadu Buhari have been advised to RUN!! from former President Chief Olusegun Obasanjor. Senator Rowland Owie, former Chief whip of the senate gave the advice to Buhari in a statement in which he described Obasanjor as a man with a penchant to controlling the government of other president. Citing instances in former presidents of Nigeria, including the incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan, who Obsanjor have tried to control in the past, Senator Owie in his statement said failure by former president to control a government, makes him resort to fighting the government. The Senator described Chief Obsanjor as a man lacking in integrity of words, asking the president-elect never to discuss anything with Obsanjor without witnesses present. Hmmm, strong words I must say but quite convincing and apparent. Read excerpts below. “To Buhari,  I thank God for you, but you must deliver on your promises and also build on what President Goodluck Jonathan did.  Above all, you must run far from Obasanjo. If he can’t control your government, he will fight you. “He has done it to all former Presidents of Nigeria and even against MKO Abiola who was not sworn in.  Never discuss with Obasanjo unless you have at least two of your aides present. According to the senator, Obasanjo has a capacity for mischief to achieve his goal. “Half way into the tenure of President Goodluck Jonathan, a man who sees nothing good in anybody, except himself, Obasanjo, started trouble making by naming presidential and vice-presidential candidates. “First, it was Governor Sule Lamido as president and Governor Rotimi Amaechi as his Deputy! A respectable Lamido, a founding father of PDP, was being urged to fight PDP. “Obasanjo lured most PDP governors in the North into rebellion against the PDP to destroy the platform that gave all of them relevance, including himself. The hate mood in the North for this election against Jonathan was such that, any candidate from the North would have won the election. “The anger was that power must return to the North. Nigerians can see that rebellion against one’s own and betrayer of one’s party doesn’t pay. “Governor Aliyu Babangìda of Niger State, who led the rebellion against Jonathan and the PDP, lost his election to the Senate and also lost his state,” Owie said.
