What will your generation do for Nigeria? ex President Olusegun Obasanjo ask Nigerian youths

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday asked Nigerian youths what would their generation do to make Nigeria a better place. According to him, although his generation had failed Nigerians in some area, it cannot be denied that his generation brought about the Unity of the country. He said this when he spoke at the one day symposium organized by the Kaduna Chamber of Commerce and Industry Mines and Agriculture (KADCCIMA).

"My own generation fought for the unity of Nigeria. You cannot deny that. There are many things we must have done wrong but we fought for the unity of this country.  I still have sharp nails from grenades that entered my body that our brothers shot at me during the civil war. But, at the end of it we reconciled. In addition, my generation laid the foundation of democracy in the country. Our democracy is not perfect, our democracy is a journey and not a destination, and we must continue to improve on it. My sons and daughters, what will your generation do? Condemnation is easy but what will you do? There are some people who have taken the bull by the horn and tried their best. But, all in all Nigeria.is still intact. There are many countries that fought civil wars and they are not together. Yugoslavia, Pakistan, Sudan, we fought a civil war sadly, but we are still together. I think for God and thank those who made that possible”he said

This statement by OBJ, if truly he said so, just undermines the ibos and he stylishly shows his disrespect for the souls of dead hero's and Biafrans lost during the civil war, all he could mention was the grenades that entered his body! With all his diabolic tendencies, he still appeared in public bragging about grenades when we all know you fought the war with charms all around your body! Past leaders never helped any of us and there is no practical nationalist in zoo Nigeria! All we have is a bunch of glutons, cabals and regionalists in this country!! The unity you claim exist in

Sir ur generation is the worst generation ever, the whole problem in Nigeria is brought about by u people. The unity u said u people brought was at the cost of more than 3000000 souls,
Shame on u for even mentioning it.

What has his generation done for the youths?

Anonymous said...

Sometimes I just wonder why NIGERIA is blessed with stupid leaders. Obasanjo you didn't need to fight before Nigeria is United. All that was needed is what you guys have always done: get the army from the barracks to shoot anyone that refuses to fall in line. Easy. What you are incapable of doing is actually to pose the question of whether we are better of United. It wouldn't be for the intention of dividing Nigeria but for the purpose of carrying every body along without needing the army. This is what my generation will achieve when you agree to die and leave us alone

Your generation brought corruption

Unknown said...

Their is no room for Nigerian yourths for now except to work for a living, Baba's generation is covering almost three generations now cos if a 70 plus old man is still working,what will 50 do? Not to talk of the youths. God will see them through

Phayth said...

Are your likes willing to let the youths take over now, when folks like you that have been there since the eighties are still trying to be relevant?

So if his generation is the cause of Nigeria's problems as you claim, then what is your/our generation doing to be better than theirs? He indeed asked a very genuine question .

This country is splintered, no thanks to your corrupt, selfish, clueless generation. And yes please, y'all do us a favor and FADE AWAY.

its only people without knowledge and history understanding that will think about this for a second.....ask him this questions....was Nigeria not united before the war? and please ask him what really caused the war if it wasn't self interest..... was the three men that signed our independent not friends? the truth is he and others were average men before they became politician and now they are worth more than the president of any other country in the world but Nigeria is in deep poor shit then my question is how did they all become that rich? how much is the true salary and allowance of a head of state or president and others in Nigeria and then multiply it by 96 month max and compare it to their worth and then you will understand the meaning of politics in Nigeria. fuck all this bullshit this niggers are even having competition on who rich pass as politician. Trust and believe in none....if your father become a politician today my brother or my sister he is the devil and that is period. i will prove it.
