Is Obasanjo's messiah complex good for Nigeria?

Ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo has anointed himself the man to always choose Nigeria's leaders. Is this a good thing?



Chief Olusegun Obasanjo’s lengthy statement which tore into President Muhammadu Buhari, APC, PDP and the rest of mankind, was typical of the man.


He’s done it before. This is his turf and he's loving it!
Time and again, just before his nation’s general elections, Obasanjo adorns the garb of messiah, grabs the megaphone and dominates the news cycle; before settling for a preferred presidential candidate. It’s a role he loves and one he has come to embrace with religious fervor.

Umaru...Umaru...Umaru how many times did I call you

In 2007, Obasanjo foisted an ailing Umaru Musa Yar’adua on Nigerians even though better candidates like Donald Duke were fluttering seductive eyelashes his way.
