Former
President Olusegun Obasanjo has come under severe criticism following
his frequent visits to Aso Rock as Fayose accuses him of hiding
something.
Ex-president, Olusegun Obasanjo
Governor Fayose of Ekiti state has made shocking revelation how
former President Olusegun Obasanjo gave lawmakers N50m each in a bid for
them to support his failed third term bid. He further blasted Obasanjo
as he accused him of being corrupt and a laughing stock.
According to Fayose, Obasanjo is seriously trying to cover things with his frequent visits to Aso Rock.
Fayose is quoted as saying: "I’m not ready to take issues with
Obasanjo because if you are talking about corruption today, Obasanjo is
the cause. (What about) the N50m Obasanjo (allegedly) gave each lawmaker
for his failed third term agenda?
“I was an Obasanjo boy. Obasanjo can’t be celebrated as a saint
in Nigeria. When he talks, I just shake my head. Sometimes, when he
goes to the [presidential] Villa, I wonder if he has shame at all. When
he was [the president], Buhari was not visiting him regularly. Obasanjo
is behaving like somebody who wants to cover [up] something at all cost.
“I want a former president that will know this nation does not
belong to one man. Most of the problems in this country were caused by
Obasanjo. The impeachment of a governor by four lawmakers was done
during Obasanjo’s tenure as a president. Tell me where the moral is.
“We should not deceive ourselves. The fact that he is
supporting the government of the day tactically is to protect himself.
Sometimes, I ask if he is looking for a political appointment. Have you
seen Ernest Shonekan and other former presidents visit Buhari like he
does? He is becoming a laughing stock. That is the way I see it.”
