The King (OBJ) And I...
OBJ's
OBJ: Ige may have been killed by a 'certain' drug barons.
Omodudu: Isn't the Nigerian press corp such a lazy bunch, there couldn't have been too many 'certain' drug baron, under investigation by the AG's office. Don't we deserve to know who this certain drug baron is.
OBJ: Bakassi did not belong to Nigeria, how can we have what is not ours?
Omodudu: I wonder o, so why did we waste all that money pursuing a dead lead sir?
OBJ: I don't know what they want, when asked about ASU strike.
Omodudu: Sir I think I know. In our neck of the woods its called, justice.
OBJ: I will not take public office again, but since I will still be attending public outings you will see me in pubic.
Omodudu: That is exactly what I thought too. I particularly like your word play, I hope you are not insulting our intelligence though.
OBJ: When asked about the transparency of the Nigerian elections, "The people that are fanning this ember of hatred are not in the country today, they fan the embers and ran away with their family"
Omodudu: Oga, if we dey cry we dey see road o.
I must say, I am OBJ's number one fan though, he moved Nigeria forward, anybody claiming otherwise either has a short memory or is too young to remember what Nigeria was like during Abacha's regime. Given the state of the country and the structure in place, OBJ did an above par job. We need a visionary leader to take over from OBJ...to be continued.

The fact that he was willing to take unscripted questions from the public is very impressive.
lmao
You are one crazy dude son.Hala at me .
Nice. You don't look 'dudu' if that's you on your profile pic on Mybloglog :-D.
@boso, that was really impressive. lol @azuka yeah thats me, what can I say the duduness is the consciousness . @ugo thanks for coming by.
lol
Omodudu, I will surely send this your link to The King, be rest assured you will still get reply to your submissions.
Abeg o. This was just an intellectual excercise.
...Intellectual excercise or not, must impressive. when it's time for the real thing, you'll be ready :)
Since you're his number one fan, you're already biased, I'm biased as well since i'm definitely not a fan.
We all remember Abacha's regime quite well but why would anyone want to compare Obj and Abacha's regime. One was a corrupt undemocratic regime that trampled on the rights of Nigerians while the other was ....
Prior to last month's elections i would have said Obj did a 'slightly below average' job, but after that fiasco i think he failed (as in "F9" for those who still remember WAEC's GCE scoring ..lol), all he has done now is saddled us with a government that will spend most of it's time looking for ways to make itself 'legitimate'.
Through his selfishness and 'know it all' attitude he has destroyed our fourth attempt at democracy. Just like IBB is remembered for 1993's annulled election, history will remember Obj as the man who organised the worst elections in Nigeria's history.
On a lighter note i'm throwing you a challenge (if you're brave enough to accept lol) to tell us exactly what Obj did to 'move Nigeria forward' and i'll provide a rejoinder showing you how with the resources and goodwill at his disposal he could have done a much better job.
every nigerian president has basically failed. what we r doing is benchmarking failure against failure, which is pathetic. despite spending hundreds of billions on the power issue OBJ or anyone before him has been unable to solve the quagmire called power.surely a nation in darkness cannot move forward, no? until that person comes and solves the power issue, i will not be calling any president a success, qualified anyway. he was successful in bits, but holistically he failed.
