Chairman of the Presidential
Advisory Committee on Anti-Corruption, PACAC, Itse Sagay, has again lashed out
at former President, Olusegun Obasanjo.
Sagay, who had earlier commented
on Obasanjo’s statement on President Muhammadu Buhari, said the former leader
had no moral right to run down the Buhari administration.
Sagay noted that the open
statement was done in bad faith and insisted that the administration of Buhari
has achieved more that what Obasanjo achieved in eight years.
“I want to make a clear statement
that in my view, what the Buhari government has achieved in two and half years
is far more than what Obasanjo achieved in eight years,” Sagay, a professor of
Law, told Channels Television.
“He (Obasanjo) has no right to
start writing public letters and running down other governments simply because
he’s no longer the one in power.
“My immediate reaction is that it
sounds very ill in the mouth of the person who sought three terms of presidency
to demand that the person who has not even sought a second term to abort any
idea of doing the second term.
“That advice is coming from the
wrong source; he has no moral right to give that advice,” he added.
Obasanjo, in a lengthy and
strongly-worded statement, said Buhari and his government have failed
Nigerians.
He also promoted what may become
a political party, Coalition for Nigeria, CN.
“I, therefore, will gladly join
such a Movement when one is established as Coalition for Nigeria, CN, taking
Nigeria to the height God has created it to be. From now on, the Nigeria eagle
must continue to soar and fly high”, he said.
“CN, as a Movement, will be new,
green, transparent and must remain clean and always active, selflessly so,” he
added.
