  5. Well, considering the time he's spend while in prison, and his military life? Are those place a place of pleasure? A place where he get whatever he wants?
    No, this man has passed through many phases of life, that's why he might look older than his age.
    Try to appreciate things guy.

  15. HBD to the Best President we have had in Recent times. Asides the fact that he messed up with that Stupid 3rd Term Agenda, He really tried as a President.

    During his Tenure, We cleared our External Debt, Foreign Exchange rate was stable between N100 - 118 to a Dollar, The Economy was abit OK, even though we didnt have Light.But the most important issue was that THERE WERE NO MILITANTS OR TERRORISTS!!!!!

    I miss Baba, If I had known things would be like this Today, I would not have criticised his Government that much.Cos the Idiots we have now are Far worse than we ever Imagined!!! And the thing wen dey Pain me be say, Our Foreign Reserves done Finish, Excess Crude Account Gone, Dollar is N162 and BOKO HARAM dey HARAAAM Nigeria with Bombs. And all our DODO President can say is WE ARE ON TOP OF THE SITUATION!!! It is well by God's Grace

    Uncle OBJ. Happy Birthday Jare. LLNP.

  47. @ anon 4:25pm

    What about you die fast for that stupid comment. OBJ did less damage compared to all the previous president. People hate this guy for no reason. Yes, he messed up by putting Yar adua but he did a lot of good things during his presidency.

    Happy birthday, OBJ. May God continue to give you long life.

  54. First he killed Biafrans, then he killed Nigeria.Now he is 75 I hope he finds courage to apologise.

    ReplyDelete
  55. @ anon 9:32pm.

    OBJ killed Biafrans? There shouldn't have been Biafra in the first place. Igbo people need to look at Mr Ojukwu(R.I.P) he's all to be blame for what happened during that time.
    OBJ killed Nigeria? Then if OBJ killed Nigeria, Abacha and IBB saved Nigeria. Go and sit down, you are a foolish moron.
