Buhari, Obasanjo and Fani-Kayode
Critic, Femi Fani-Kayode has drawn comparison between former President Olusegun Obasanjo and President Muhammadu Buhari.
According to Fani-Kayode, he would always like Obasanjo (OBJ) more than Buhari (PMB), saying that comparing Buhari with Obasanjo was like comparing Count Dracula with Mother Theresa.
“OBJ united Nigeria, PMB divided her. OBJ brought peace, PMB brought war. OBJ brought prosperity, PMB brought poverty. OBJ brought life, PMB brought death. OBJ brought hope, PMB brought despair
“OBJ paid off our foreign debt, Buhari indebted us to the tune of $30 billion and turned us into Africa’s biggest debtor & beggar. OBJ solved our problems, PMB created them. OBJ brought restoration, PMB brought degeneration. OBJ brought us pride, Buhari brought us shame,” he said on his twitter handle.
He added that while Obasanjo brought the nation success, Buhari brought stark failure.
“OBJ loved all Nigerians and treated them equally, Buhari loves only northerners and treats all others like field hands and slaves. OBJ saw Nigeria as a nation, PMB sees her as a conquered territory
“OBJ led the best, most successful, most intelligent, most enlightened & most productive cabinet & Govt. in the history of Nigeria whilst PMB leads the worst, most destructive, most savage, most ignorant & most corrupt cabinet & Govt. in the history of Africa,” he said.

FFK is on drug
Femi Fani Kayode, still have EFCC leash round his neck, he will soon answer his row call, his two in laws Olisa Metuh and Chief Kalu are by the prison gate to open the gate for him, he will be gone soon watch! OBJ ministers are all looters, looting perforated Femi Fani Kayode from his head to his toes, PMB hates looters that was why he rejected all OBJ candidates not to serve under PMB, that was why OBJ turn his back not to support PMB the second term, he supported Atiku, at one time OBJ thought he has all Nigerian and there resources inside his pocket, It’s only Atiku that can provide Nigerian with three square after he has destroyed his political career, OBJ remember all you have done to this country,
OBJ and PMB, ran government under different political, social and economic circumstances. Hence, the basis of FFK’s comparison is not only sentimental but is fatally wrong.
During OBJ regime, it’s a common knowledge that political rascality, Ghana-must-go, changing of political office holders(e.g Ministers, Leadership of National Assembly) like rappers, kill-and-go and various acts of impunity were the order of the day.
However, under Mr. WAI and a great advocate of anti-corruption crude(PMB), the era of free looting of our treasury has been curtailed with TSA, there has been some level of sanity, in the way both the federal governmentand her agencies are being ran, political looters (including FFK/APC political gladiators/Ex-Governors), have neither hidden place nor God fathers, to sheld them from EFCC prosecution and/or being confined behind bars.
Though it’s not yet Uhuru, the PMB government has brought a lot of succors to the ordinary people, with different kind of social investment programmes, massive infrastructural (e.g roads, railway) development projects and unrelentless war against smugglers, through the recent boarder closure etc.
Fani Kayode would not have been vomitting crap in civilised climes,he would either have been in confinement for fraud or in a rehabilitation centre for drug addiction but here’s Nigeria anything goes, history will be the best judge of both Obasanjo and Buhari not the likes of Fani Kayode
Again, the records are there. Buhari was Obasanjo’s petroleum minister
Fani Kayode is so right. No one could have stated this more aptly.
Buhari is a disaster. He pledged to eradicate corruption but his regime is seemingly more corrupt than the much maligned Abacha.
Buhari claimed to have recovered LOOTED billions from politicians but in 5years, he has taken more loans than the combined loans of all the past Presidents.
Not even under Abacha did treasury house go up in flames. No one ever heard that snake and monkey could swallow millions until this President came to power.
I kept wondering how Buhari earmarked 37 billion for the renovation of national assembly? A WHOOPING 37 billion, just for renovations? Under this government, the President’s friend, cut grass with millions of naira.
Since Buhari’s foray and misadventure into governance, Nigeria has not known no peace. Killing here, killing there. Nigeria has never been so divided along tribal line.
This is a government that has spent billions of dollars in 5 years fighting Boko Haram terrorists without success but the Chadian President led his troops and decimated Boko Haram terrorists in just 2 weeks.
Under this sleepy, inefficient and ineffective aimless thouthless clueless government, United Nations declared Nigeria the poverty capital of the world. Trump called Nigeria shit hole country. Nnamdi Kanu called Nigeria zoo, guess what? they are right.
Senegal developed their own ventilators, Nigeria developed nothing. Madagascar produced their own cure for Corona virus, Nigeria produced nothing because unqualified Fulani herdsmen are heading positions they know nothing about.
What a failed government. What a needless change Nigerians made in 2015. What a huge mistake.
What a situation. I take a stroll. Nonsense.
Take the stroll na now
You’re a minister under Obasanjo, what are the things you can point to that Nigerians achieved during your tenure. Buhari was a Minister under Obasanjo he built 2 refineries which Nigerians are seeing today. Please don’t try to compare, yourself to Buhari (incorruptible leader). Please go and face your trial
Buhari was never a minister under OBJ,. Check the record well. This govt. is an aberration to Nigeria. We just pray we never have such again.
We checked the records: Buhari was Obasanjo’s Federal Commissioner for Petroleum, 1976-1979.
CHIEF FEI-Kayode, I feel your pain, your burden. Every sane, Wright thinking, patriotic Nigeria indeed, who has not been killed by by BUHARI and his evil cohorts, carry the same burden like you. It very tough but we shall overcome.
He that is born of God overcomet the world.
FFK, the comedian, is at it again!. Sermon from Mr Know it all.
I am sure you are on pay roll or something is terribly wrong
Please try and disprove his points now.
Is it not true that Obasanjo paid our debts and Buhari created debts for Nigerians?
Is it not true that He assembled the best brains in Nigeria to govern with him?
I’m not a politician or lover of Obasanjo (he had his own failures) but we can’t fault most of his successes.
Practical nonsense, why won’t u defend ur boss of d same feather? why won’t u also hate PMB for putting u on trial for embezzlement of Nigeria money? U will one day account for ur stewardship, u are supposed to b rotten in jail.
You are dangerous to life.
Opinions can be divergent because we see things from different prism however Leaders generally face and overcome different challenges and sometimes comparison may not be the right way to assess performance. Allowing for the sake of argument, it appears there’s some sense in this nonsense…….abi?
Bird of the same feather flock together what exactly do you expected from this animals called Femi Fanikayode, when he was busy looting our treasury, he doesn’t see anything bad with his God father,(OBJ) no room for him to loot again PMB sundenly becomes to the subjects of ridicule, corrupted people would never see anything good in our incorruptible president, Femi, history and prosperity would definitely judge all the leaders that put us in the present situation we find ourselves, let me bring you back to memory lane when this country had surplus more than three consecutive quarters OBJ and his cabinet busy living large and failed to dervisified our Economy, all our social infrastructure were neglected, time will tell, Fani please leaves us alone, you cannot slap us and tell us we are fools, mind you “you can only fool some people for some time but you cannot fool all the people all the time”.
We cannot deny that OBJ was far better than PMB.
He’s entitled to his own opinions and perspectives.
They are all d same politicians.
If not in power, they then to critic d government in power PMB did same to Good luck Jonathan.
Once this man takes his drug he talks. Bullshits.
Why do press keep writing about his hallucinations? This guy is a junky. Leave him alone.
Maybe he just wants attention.
What do you expect from FFK FOOLISH FAT KANGAROO.
Of course OBJ rehabilitated him with few millions he stole as minister. And as Obj describe, Fani is just a hungry child that can destroy his father’s house for few slices of bread, and will glad turn his father’s bed room into a brothel. Abeg leave Kayode alone. The man is battling overdose of hard drugs and the ancestral curse placed on him by the Yoruba nation first.
Next pls.
