The Director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thoughts, Sam Amadi, has asserted that former President Olusegun Obasanjo had even more opportunities to fix the country’s challenges while he was in power but failed to do so.
Amadi asserted this while responding to a post on social media where a netizen [Gen_Buhar] alleged that Senator Rasheed Ladoja was illegally removed as Oyo State governor in 2006 for refusing to release N15 million out of the state’s monthly security vote to Lamidi Adedibu.
In a video clip he shared, Gen_Buhar captioned: “Jan 2006: Sen Ladoja was illegally removed for refusing to give N15m of the state’s N65m then monthly security vote to Adedibu.
“Obasanjo who now has solution to every problem Nigeria is facing was the President who gave Adedibu govt backing but because we are a people of very short memory, he’s being worshipped today.
“Obasanjo was also angry with him for standing against his failed 3rd term agenda.”
Responding, Amadi wrote on X: “Terrible. Obasanjo had opportunity more than any other person to change Nigeria. But he failed to achieve it because of personal moral failings.”
