Your rule is the most corrupt, apologize to Nigerians –Presidency slams Obasanjo

Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Public Communication and Orientation, Sunday Dare, has hit out at former President Olusegun Obasanjo over a recent remark where he described President Bola Tinubu as ‘baba-go slow.’

Obasanjo had made the remark while delivering a keynote address at the Chinua Achebe Leadership Forum, Yale University, New Haven Connecticut, USA.

He said the situation in Nigeria was bad as the world could see and understand.

Reacting, Dare, in a lengthy post on X on Monday, insisted that Obasanjo ran for Presidency on record as the most corrupt during his regime.

He also called on the former president to apologize to Nigerians, adding that he has lost any moral right to condemn any government.

Dare also claimed that democracy suffered mortal wounds under Obasanjo’s watch.

“Former President Obasanjo is a man with a tremendous capacity for mischief and Nigerians know it. So is his descent into muddling facts, forgetting that he ran a Presidency on record as the most corrupt. His recent diatribe at Yale University lacks sincerity,” Dare wrote.

“It is actually laughable that Obasanjo’s pretentiousness about fighting corruption is not cutting any ice in the eyes of the general public.

“Democracy suffered mortal wounds under his watch only capped by his murderous rage for an ill-fated 3rd term. Successive administrations struggled to clean up the mess Obasanjo left behind, which President Tinubu is now making progress with. Obasanjo has lost any moral right to condemn any government. He should apologise to Nigerians for not laying the foundational infrastructure Nigeria needed to advance.”
