nobody can intimidate him.
According to Tribune, OBJ said that his agenda to form a
third force with the Coalition for Nigeria Movement (CNM)
cannot be stopped.
Obasanjo officially joined CNM » in Abeokuta, Ogun State on
Thursday, February 1, 2018.
The former President said “For me, I don’t think there is
anyone that can intimidate me. Let me remind you, I have gone
through many things. I have been jailed without committing any
offence.”
OBJ said this while speaking to CNM members at a town hall
meeting in Bodija, Ibadan, Oyo state on Saturday, April 28,
2018.
“My struggle for the good of Nigeria progress of Nigeria, the
unity of Nigeria, development of Nigeria will not diminish. Even
now, I get people from other parties, coming to me to seek
advice. I don’t belong to them. I don’t have anything to do with
them, but I give them advice. So, that situation will continue. I
will continue to look for the good of Nigeria wherever I am.
“Men of valour don’t run away from challenges and it is the
same thing with women of honour. Permanent voter’s cards
(PVCs) are your instruments. If you have not collected yours, go
and collect it. If you are not yet registered, go and register. They
are the keys to open the doors.
“The youths under 40 years old form more than 65 per cent of
our population. Now, who will tell you that because you are
under 40, you cannot play a very significant role in the affairs of
your country?
“I was Head of State when I was under 40. Now, France has
elected a president that is under 40 yrs. Botswana has just a
vice president at 32 years old. Now, what we are saying is that
the youths must be given a pride of place,” he said.
Also, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar has said that
Obasanjo cannot stop his presidential ambition.
Atiku said this during an interview with the BBC Hausa service
on Saturday, April 28, 2018.
