Obasanjo: Nobody Can Intimidate Me, God That Removes Abacha’ll Remove Buhari

LAGOS JUNE 19TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, has affirmed that nobody can intimidate him, stressing that that the God that removed military dictator, General Sani Abacha from powe will also remove President Muhammadu Buhari from office.
He said this yesterday at a town hall meeting in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, where the Coalition for Nigeria Movement (CNM) members converged.
The former President urged his loyalist not to be afraid or be discourage, adding that they will try to intimidate them individually or collectively.
Hear him, “For me, I don’t think there is anyone that can intimidate me. Let me remind you, I have gone through many things. I have been jailed without being given any opportunity of offence. Where is the person that jailed me?
“They will hold many things to wreak havoc, but everybody must be prepared. It will not be easy to wrest powers from them. If you think it will be easy to liberate Nigeria, you are deceiving yourself.
“The work has started. Some people may be laughing at you and make jest of you, don’t be bothered with that. Listen, permanent voter’s cards (PVCs) are your instruments. If you have not collected yours, go and collect it.
“If you are not yet registered, go and register. Let us tell them in all urban and rural areas that PVCs are what we will use. They are the key to open the doors.”
Obasanjo said the God who helped Nigeria against the dreaded government of late Gen. Sani Abacha will come to the country’s aid in 2019.
The former President also called on youths and all Nigerians not to be tired because they have a lot of work to do to effect change of government through the ballot.
Obasanjo said, “Some people believe that those that are in position, whether they are doing well or not, they must continue to be there. But when we say they must not only be there, they will want to fight back.
“But the God that did it yesterday will do it again today. Remember a particular leader who had a desire to transmit from military uniform to elected president.
“We had a situation that we had five political parties and the five parties nominated one person as candidate for presidency. If only his nuclear family had voted for him, he would have won.
“But our God is wonderful. God laughed. Now, God is laughing. When the time came, God revealed that He’s God. He is the omnipotent, omnipresent and eternal, who can do all things and who can make all things possible. But if we are leaving things to God, we have to do our own side.”
