Good day Simon, I am a regular reader of your column. I totally disagree with some of the comparisons in the article on Obasanjo. I am not saying he is a saint but he is an honourable man to have handed over to civilian president twice in this country as planned. We can count numbers of unfulfilled promises of handing over!!!! To start counting his achievements would tend my arguments towards been his loyalist. He is a man of destiny and history.
I totally agree with you on Ojo Madueke. However, I would say its right to criticise policies when made if truly there are genue reasons and corrections to move the policies forward. I am talking on the new CBN policies on MDs. You do not need to wait for lapses or say you reserve your comments on issues national importance.

Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo is up to yet another lie, Nigerians are not fools. We were all here when he brought his ‘boy’ Yar’ Adua, a sick man to via for election on the platform of their party (PDP), how can he now turn around now to say his ‘boy’ does not kbow anything? Then he did not teach him well. Imagine Obasanjo talking about treding the path of honour and morality, something he has never done and will never do all his life. If Obasanjo knows anything thing called morality would he have raised the thired term agenda? Path of honour, how honorable is Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo? Sorry to say it, but it is the truth, our ‘Mr. Honour’ is the genensis of all the political and constitutional issues Nigeria is facing.
If Chief Olusegun Obasanjo refuses to beg Nigerian’s for forgiveness, the spirits of our founding father will hunt him and Nigerians yet unborn will curse him even in his grave.
As for Yar’ Adua, Nigerians are not happy with you where ever you are. How can you put our Nation to a stand still because you are sick? What a shame, that the number one citizen of our great Nation is sick and there is no hospital in Nigeria to treat him, what if it were an ordinary Nigerian that has his kind of sickness? He would have died just like that, because of leaders are irresponsible and self-centered.
Come to think of it, who is footing the president’s medical bill? Nigeria?
May God deliver Nigeria from the hands of wicked Nigerian(leaders).

While i do not agree with ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo on the way he ran his government and his one man approach to all issues, i still think we as a people need a voice as loud as his to convey the general feelings of the people to those so called FEC members and Yar Adua himself. Wether from good motives or false Obasanjo’s voice serves a purpose.
