Former President, Olusegun
Obasanjo, today pledged to support the best candidate in the next general
elections irrespective of the candidate’s party.
According to Premium Times,
Obasanjo disclosed this when the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential
candidate Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and his entourage paid him a courtesy call at
his hilltop mansion in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
Obasanjo told his visitors
that he had to adjust his schedule just to receive them and to honour Gen.
Buhari, whose campaign train stopped at Ogun State.
“Our paths have crossed on
a number of occasions and when I was told you are going to be coming to Ogun
State, I wasn’t sure whether you will come here or not. But I told my boys -I
said well, whatever programme we have outside Ogun State for today, let us
shelve it just in case Muhammadu and his party and his team decide to call
here.
“You will remember when you
decided to contest you wrote me a letter this time around. And I replied your
letter. When you became the flag bearer of your party, you wrote me another
letter. And I replied your second letter because I believe that you have
honoured me by writing and I should of course reciprocate by also responding to
your letter.”
He opined that what is
important to him was who would make Nigeria better irrespective of the party
the candidate belongs to.
He however told the APC
members that he remained a member of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP.
Baba u lie! u know who you want.
