Peter Obi’s Presidential Candidature and Olusegun Obasanjo as Aficionado: The Foreign Policy Dimensions Presidential elections in any nook and cranny of the world always generate special interests because of the need to know the likely attitudinal dispos
Presidential elections in any nook and cranny of the world always generate special interests because of the need to know the likely attitudinal disposition of a potential or a would-be new president.
In the same vein, Rabiu Kwankwaso, former Governor of Kano State and the standard bearer of the New Nigeria People’s Party , advised on Wednesday, 4th January, 2023 in Benin City, that Chief Obasanjo should stop disgracing himself because no one owns the voters. As he put it, ‘supporting and endorsing Mr. A. or Mr. B… is a big mistake … There is a time in life when become real statesman, not a politician.
The proponents, considering the environmental conditionings in the country, see in Obasanjo a true nationalist and a patriotic statesman, rather than as a man who is jealous of the achievements of Bola Tinubu or President Muhammadu Buhari .
The allegations and calamities are synonymous in this context of Obasanjo’s message. Chief Obasanjo first observed that Nigerians have moved from the frying pan to the fire and from the mountain top to the valley. It is hell on earth, hence the need for an immediate better future and need not only to be cautious, but also not to be fooled again. In this regard, is this observation or allegation true? This is one statement that the opposition school of thought ought to respond to as an issue.
At the level of pleas to the youth, Chief Obasanjo said: ‘Youth of Nigeria, your time has come, and it is now and please grasp it. If not now, it will be never. I appeal to you to turn the tide on its head and match forward, chanting ‘Awa lokan not with a sense of entitlement, but with a demonstrable ideological commitment to unity and transformation of Nigeria. Leave the past. Face the future.
