Obasanjo is so loved by all Nigerians except by his own Yoruba ethnic group. Their reason is that he’s non-tribal and that he works for one Nigeria all the time instead of projecting their own ethnic interests first. His rise to greatness still remains a mystery to them because he would never have become anything if it were to come from them(the Yorubas). He understands this very much and has been lucky to realize early enough that being just and fair to all is better than being a tribal bigot. His reign between 1976 and 1979 was a period of true reconciliation and transformation. The second one 1999 to 2007 recorded the best times for Nigeria’s economy and national peace and unity.
The United States is forcing Dangote refineries to pay it( U.S) for refining Nigeria oil on Nigerian soil. Let's stop pretending that these old people are on Africa's side.
Why is it that the Yorubas don't recognize Chief Obasanjo in the pecking order? After Chief Obafemi Awolowo, they say Jagaban is second in the pecking order. Where do you place Baba Iyabo?
Jeff Koinange-the Larry King of Africa.Thank you for the great job you are doing. To Baba Obasanjo, you are a true statesman of Africa and we appreciate the peace efforts you are doing allover Africa and specifically in Kenya. Thank you and God bless you.
@@kennyogunbekun2466, you must be a political psychophant. We are discussing contemporary issues bothering Nigerian citizens and the way forward, you're here talking about 1967. Has OBJ not been jailed before?
The USA and UK are not democracies. They are plutocratic oligarchies. Like the first de Medici regime, they maintained the facade of the Florentine Republic, while pulling the strings from behind the scenes.
Obasanjo What a Convenience You are Coming for Youth Conference when the Youth of Kenya are having a Serious Problem with Ruto. Please We are Not Stupid don't ply with Us, You have come to Through Ruto a Life jacket! STAY HOME OBASANJO!
was a little bit hesitant supporting Gen z but from today news that Governor of kiambu Wamatangi has been frustrating lnvestors to a tune of 33 million dollars for kickback for approvals of plans projects in Tatu City this people were to employ thousands of youth lncluding the call centre that Ruto keep on saying.
No matter how bad pdp was, they have produced the best present, intelligent president with good cabinets not like apc producing weak, dull, clueless, and corrupt present. It a pity on them.
I Love Jeff Koinange professionalism! His interviews are legendary! I am always watching and listening to the interview with Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo! God bless Jeff Koinange!
I don’t know what you mean though, obasanjo did well as a leader president of Nigeria. Our naira was about 15.00 to a dollar. If you are a Nigerian and you don’t value obasanjo, others value and respect him.
People should really know History..Olesegun Abasanjo was a General before becoming a President. He is the part of the Nigerian Problem now he is an Angel, God Help us
Être General, veut - il dire qu'on aime pas son pays ? Le seul element important est l'amour de sa Patrie et travailler pour et non une démocratie importée. Churchill en angleterre et De Gaule en France étaient des militaires qui ont developpé leur pays.
That laughter is sarcastic, it can only come from a naive and uninformed individual who is yet to understand that the youth need guidance from elders such Mzee Obasanjo
@@wasilwaalexeyis He was definitely invited by the youth to come and share his experiences as a young leader as well as an elder who has superintended over and guided the youth, anything wrong with that???
I really don't understand why these african leaders speak of good leadership when they resign or when they are not in power, does it mean they get their brains back after messing their countries and they become wiser with wisdom.. Kweli i don't think they need this kind of platforms
I just love Baba,with all my heart,he is a Pan African.the wisdom is out of here. African leaders should utilize his ability and connection to free themselves of the shackles of the oligarchy
God's been good to us. He remembered us and gave us the gift of life. Give ur life to Jesus today and make him the Lord and personal saviour of ur life ❤
Am 60 years old. ABJ. Sir can you give account of your tenure as a president of Nigeria. And how all states companies were auctioned and bought by you and your friends.
I don’t know what Obasonjo is doing in Kenya when his country is going down the toilet. Obasonjo should be talking to Tinubu and the robbers ruling Nigeria.
Democracy should be redefine to suit the Africa culture and tradition meaning all constitutions governing us should be rewrite to meet the demands of the people
That Nigerian leader has been a coup leader and doesn't have any democratic ideals, he's the one who has inspired Raila Odinga politics and he hijacked in the early 90s when FORD split, why should Kenyans vilify the Ugandan president who has contributed to our democratic stability and glorify a coup leader from a far country who's contributions to Kenyan stability and enterprising is meaningless?
We are so sorry Mr President, due to the unable situation and what have you, now we've even change the Nigeria new name it turns into no nonsense instead of nigerîa, i assure any one who doesn't make the necessary requirements for making our country Better we will full him/her out of the position Best regards political leaders
We need change kenya 🇰🇪 is not Nigeria 🇳🇬 this is a wave 🌊 lets fight our own battle we have our demand and President ruto knows tha follow instructions y tursk force which didn't work on police under 100 days, of ur regime 😮😮😮
When you have the opportunity to make history by changing the trajectory of the country when the opportunity called giving advice and suggestions from the sideline it's in futility
Don't be swayed by politician's speeches. They could be trying to fool you. First, determine if they are overly corrupt because gross corruption is what has gotten us here.
Make no mistake. Obasanjo is despotic. He wanted to go for a third tenure in office against the Nigerian constitution. He comes to preach self righteousness when he was instrumental in putting Nigeria in a mess from 1999 until the day he left power. Go and fix Nigeria. The current president of Nigeria is your brother and friend.
There is nothing wrong with liberal democracy. The problem is African leadership: authoritarianism and view your political opponents as enemies, greed ,selfishness etc.
How when Nigeria is lounging in debt and poverty? Do Nigerians feel like he did much for his country as per his mandate? Has Nigeria improved under his leadership? What makes him great. I'd love to learn
Many Nigerians have forgotten that they're lovely obasanjo used the same evil constitution that we were complaining about in his tenure, which is military decree 24 of 1999 for 8 years. It is true that obasanjo is fighting for one nigeria, but he does not care if it's working for the betterment of common Nigerians or not. In fact, because of his love for one nigeria, He passed a bill before is tenure end in 2007 that history should be ERASED from nigeria school curriculum, cos history has failed to address nigeria as one, without thinking of the outcomes damage of his action. When people did not know theirs ancestral history or theirs generational historical background of their tribes, means such tribes would never know whom they were on the surface of earth.
Saint Matthew Aremu Olusegun Obasanjo, how time flies, you've forgotten just like yesterday when you make the lives of an average Nigerian a mystery. Indeed you can be going everywhere deceiving the gullible ones who never saw you as the worst thing that happened to Nigeria . The evil seed you planted in Nigeria some years back has actually yielded and it's being harvested all over the streets of Nigeria. Baba oshi!
I am viewing from Barbados. Absolutely, Mr President. Western Democracy extremely inappropriate in Africa. True originated in Africa through the traditional African Constitutional Law and the princles which guarantees the rights of the African people.
Rule of Law, is the bedrock of any Democracy whether in Africa, Asia, Europe or America.There is no Rule of law in Africa Democracy therefore there's no true Democracy in Africa. Africa have what I call electoral Democracy.africas so called Democracy is just to elect corrupt leaders and legislators.
Fire brigade 🔥 that's what obasanjo are, sounds so good but indirectly working for colonial masters and for himself, operation feed the nation he initiated as military head of state ended OTA farmland as his personal property he single handedly killed all our industries including refineries and electricity supply by his dubious pravitisations, today Nigeria is on his knees because of bad foundations he leaves behind, Obasanjo is now a puritan going everywhere speaking grammars
African Union only in paper, not in practice! AU is for Africans and not non Africans to dedicate Africa n affairs; that’s big issue; it’s as if AU has been used by the colonizers not to put the Union in practice; when will Africa be free? It’s now time young Africans are standing up to take what theirs! Poverty by design!
