Former President Olusegun Obasanjo Friday prayed that the fortunes of
Nigeria may never sink like that of former ruling party, PDP which is
currently in a leadership crisis.
Speaking at a symposium to celebrate
his forthcoming 80th birthday, Obasanjo who is a founding member of the
party but ceased to be a member when he tore his membership card in
February 2015, said when he was in the party, all was well with it, but
immediately he left, things became bad for the party.
"When all was going well, when I brought Ahmadu Ali as the national
chairman of the party, we controlled 30 States out of the 36 states but
when Ahmadu and I left, the fortune of the PDP sunk. Ali is a man of
truth, hardworking but cantankerous. May the fortune of Nigeria never
sink like that of the PDP,” the audience responded with a thunderous
“amen”
