Obasanjo PARA : Don't Vote a Mediocre Into Power Again

Ex president Olusegun Aremu Obasanjo made this statement at his book launch, My Watch, in London, yesterday.He asserts that he stands by the statement credited to him on his endorsement of the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Gen Buhari.

He said:
"What I said… I will say it again and I will do it. When the time comes for me to vote, I will consider the track record of all the candidates that are contesting and I will assess them. Then, based on my assessment for who I believe have the best track record to perform the job of the Nigerian president, then he will have my vote and if anybody should know what the job of the Nigerian president requires,

I should know And there is no sentiment in the affairs of Nigeria. Nigeria is a population of 180 million and you wouldn't have anybody other than one person or two persons that can run the affairs of Nigeria? What the hell are we talking about? For me there are millions who can run the affairs of Nigeria that are not even coming out So why should you die on behalf of one who is probably performing as a mediocre.

With all due respect. if you love Nigeria, you would look for the best for her and I don't believe that at this point in time, we have the best"
