PRESIDENT OLUSEGUN OBASANJO MUST GO
BY:BODUNDE BABATOPE MOSES
After the battle against military dictatorship in Nigeria had been won, the people were looking for a leader to lead them to the promise land in 1999 after a lot of suffering under the military rule. Unfortunately, Obasanjo was imposed by the Mafia through the massive rigging of the election. The government is being run in a Mafia-like administration. However, many people believed that his prison experience would guide him to favour the poor masses who are suffering in the midst of plentiful. Apart from dancing to the tune of the Mafia who put him in power through their ill gotten wealth, he added to the suffering of the people through his anti-people programmes.
