Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose has described former President, Olusegun Obasanjo as Nigeria’s number one enemy, who has lost his status as an elder statesman.
Fayose said this in a statement, Sunday, by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka.
According to him, the former president’s only reason for fighting President Goodluck Jonathan is because the president prevented Obasanjo from ruling Nigeria from his Ota Farm.
“The moment Obasanjo is not the one controlling a house, he will want the house pulled down but this time around, he has failed,” stated Fayose.
“Obasanjo has always benefited from the misfortune of others and he is living with the impression that he is the wisest person in the whole world.
“When Murtala Mohammed was murdered in 1976, Obasanjo was the beneficiary.
“In 1993, he said the acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election, late Chief MKO Abiola was not the Messiah Nigeria needed. Instead of Obasanjo to join the clamour for the actualisation of Abiola’s mandate, Obasanjo was canvassing for an Interim National Government, which he schemed to head.
“MKO Abiola died in detention in 1997 and Obasanjo became the beneficiary of his (Abiola) death.
“Despite the fact that it was the blood of MKO Abiola that Obasanjo matched on to power, not even a street was named after Abiola throughout Obasanjo’s eight years as president.
“Today, Obasanjo is fighting President Jonathan, the man who has done what he failed to do for Abiola, the Yoruba people and Nigerians as a whole when he was president for eight years, simply because he does not want anyone to equal his record as Nigeria’s longest serving president.
“President Jonathan has made it impossible for Obasanjo to run his presidency for him and for this reason, he is supporting Buhari, hoping that he will be the one to nominate ministers for Buhari if he becomes president.
“However, I have this bad news for Obasanjo. Nigeria is not his football that he can kick around as he likes. President Jonathan will be re-elected, and Nigeria will be freed from his (Obasanjo) bondage once and for all,” Fayose said.
