Default Re: In Defence of Obasanjo



Obsanjo, Yar Adua - they have the chance to make history. A chance most people in the Nigerian community will never get. Obasanjo did not make history so in essence he failed. The opportunity to lead your nation is one that should be cherished. Sadly because of the way people get this chance (through the sort of elections we hold), the value is greatly diminished.

That not withstanding, any president that spends 8 years in office in Nigeria and does not improve our most basic of infrastructure, has failed. End of.

Yar Adua has his chance and will be judged similarly in 7 years.

All the obasanjo apologists should carry on. It is their right as is that of those that suffer everyday to insist on no more mediocrity.
