Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has warned President Muhammadu Buhari against participating in the 2019 presidential election. In a strong worded press statement released today, the former President appealed to the president not to over push his luck or over tax the patience and endurance of Nigerians, adding that its time for Buhari to honourably consider a deserved rest.
In his letter, Obasanjo accused the president of Nepotism. He berated the APC governors that went to the state house on January 12th to endorse President Buhari to run for a second term. According to Obasanjo, that act which was carried out a day after the 75 victims of the Benue herdsmen clash were given a mass burial, is most unfortunate.
