Former President Olusegun
Obasanjo is currently trending on social media over the shot fired at President
Muhammadu Buhari.
Rejecting Buhari’s 2019 bid, the
elder statesman told the incumbent president to retire from active service.
He also listed what he considered
as the ‘sins” of the only man who shares with him the record of ruling Nigeria
as a military head of state and a civilian president.
Here are some reactions on
Twitter:
Obasanjo who supported you in 2015 has asked you not to run on account of your GLARING incompetence. Your wife who campaigned with you in 2015 is not willing to support you. Baba, go home please.— Nedu Ekeke #BBOG (@Nedunaija) January 23, 2018
Baba Obasanjo is funny sha; he used his hand to install Yaradua, GEJ & supported Buhari. He went against all three men during their first tenure. Though he is 100% right about Buhari's ineptitude, it seems the only Nigerian President good enough for Obasanjo is Olusegun Obasanjo.— Mr Stanley Nwabia (@MrStanleyNwabia) January 23, 2018
When Obasanjo wrote that letter to Jonathan, you praised him for standing for Nigeria, he does exactly same to Buhari and you are dissing him. Lol.— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) January 24, 2018
Olusegun Okikiola Obasanjo made valid points against @MBuhari and I hope @AsoRock does not dismiss those points, but Obasanjo failed to list one important failure of Buhari as @NGRPresident and that is that rogues such as Obasanjo are still walking free with their massive loot.— Kayode Ogundamisi (@ogundamisi) January 23, 2018
TRANSFER ALERT!!!— Ebube D Statesman (@akaebube) January 23, 2018
SkySports News confirms that Olusegun Obasanjo, prolific Striker and Ballon Dor Winner (1999-2007) has announced his departure from Sai Baba FC
Set to sign a new deal with Wailers FC for a record breaking fee.
Details shortly.
Has President Obasanjo also joined the wailers? First his wife @aishambuhari attacks him and now Obasanjo rejects President Buhari’s second term bid after stating the obvious that the President has failed and should be rejected “as a horse rider in Nigeria again.”— Reno Omokri (@renoomokri) January 23, 2018
Obasanjo says no to APC and PDP. Technically, he is issuing both parties a joint red card in preference for what he calls CN Coalition for Nigeria .— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) January 23, 2018

I join them with The Oracle @AbdulMahmud01 to say#TimeUpBuhari You have failed. pic.twitter.com/DTTf6yDvK9
Obasanjo is the architect of the chaos we are in now, and even though you wish to praise him as a model, allow those with retentive memory to remind us of how he rigged elections, bribed lawmakers to let him stay in power and, when those failed, he imposed Yar’adua and GEJ on us.— Gimba Kakanda (@gimbakakanda) January 23, 2018
Ladies and gentlemen,— Paul Mogbolu (@Iammisterpaul) January 23, 2018
Your President is aware of the arrest of the BBOG.
He doesn't think this is a wrong move. And yes, Obasanjo advised him not to run in 2019 but you and I know he's a stubborn fly.
Get your PVC so we can teach him a lesson in 2019.
Pass it on!
I remember GEJ and GEJites attacking Obasanjo after his letters in the run up to 2015 and Buhari benefited. Looking to see how Buhari and Buharists will react now that they are on the end of a letter too. My guess? Behave like GEJites did. We never learn from history in Nigeria.— Babanla (@biolakazeem) January 23, 2018
Chief Obasanjo used all the knowledge he acquired during his PhD to blast @MBuhari in that statement. pic.twitter.com/FQJidAf8rg— Igala_Alan_Shore (@i_am_Anomeli) January 23, 2018
It seems the game is on. The plan is to pressure Buhari against running.— Gege (@nigeriasbest) January 23, 2018
Obasanjo as ever, eternally selfish. Once you stop doing his bidding, he turns on you.
Let's hope this time, the right candidate is chosen. 'Anyone but Buhari' should not be a manifesto.....
I trust my Igbo brothers.— Onye Nkuzi (@cchukudebelu) January 23, 2018
"Obasanjo's Letter to Buhari" will be sold in Lagos traffic as early as tomorrow morning.
We must put an end to Obasanjo's overbearing influence on the polity,the country doesn't belong to him,he doesn't get to dictate who gets what and when,he's a part of our political and developmental problems and he must be treated as such.— Tomide (@MrTomide) January 23, 2018
Just finished reading Baba Obasanjo’s letter. The summary is simple:— Adeyanju Deji 🇳🇬 (@adeyanjudeji) January 23, 2018
Buhari has failed and should go and rest but PDP that is now controlled by Wike is not an option.
He says a 3rd option is the only way out and Nigerians must arise to take charge of the country.
Olusegun Okikiola Obasanjo made valid points against @MBuhari and I hope @AsoRock does not dismiss those points, but Obasanjo failed to list one important failure of Buhari as @NGRPresident and that is that rogues such as Obasanjo are still walking free with their massive loot.— Kayode Ogundamisi (@ogundamisi) January 23, 2018
I have looked for were to disagree with Obasanjo in that letter but i found none.— Emmanuel Nwachukwu (@emma_dele) January 23, 2018
Trust some of you to see what i believe don't exist
Is like Obasanjo doesn’t know that he is not too old to go to jail. pic.twitter.com/2liftq32xr— Parosident Buhari (@TheMbuhari) January 23, 2018
I agree with Obasanjo's letter even though he didn't say anything that I have not said about Buhari and his govt before. However, Obasanjo and Buhari are like accuser & the accused, two of them are analogue and they do not represent the Nigeria of today.— Peter Ayodele Fayose (@GovAyoFayose) January 23, 2018
Whenever former President Olusegun Obasanjo weighs in against a sitting President, be it military or civilian, that's the end for the leader's ambition.— Nnamdi Anekwe-Chive (@nnamdianekwe) January 23, 2018
Dear @MBuhari, your wife & daughter have said they are not willing to support you— Oke Umurhohwo (@stalyf) January 23, 2018
Dele Momodu has said you are a failure and you should not contest
Obasanjo who supported you in 2015 has now asked you not to run because of your obvious incompetence
Pls go back to Daura in 2019
Obasanjo has written another one of his self serving useless letters. We were aware a week ago that he would 'leak' this letter. Everyone OBJ has supported he has ended up regretting. Is he not just a meddlesome old man?— Babasola Kuti (@SKSolaKuti) January 23, 2018
Whoever OBJ supports in 2019 we will not vote for. Simple
