The recent interview granted the erstwhile President of Nigeria, President Olusegun Obasanjo by CNN and the uproar it generated within the government circle is nothing but mere noises as usual. Obasanjo's outburst of the endemic corruption in the Jonathan administration is not untrue but the basis of that outburst can be questioned likewise that of the government handling of the Boko Haram menace. Obasanjo traveled to Britain to launch a foundation for African children, one wonders how many African countries he visited before going to Britain. Is his action not a kind of writing his own continent off?
Besides, the whole saga between the strong man of Owu and the Otu-oke don revolves around 2015; who gets what, when and how. Abati, the media spokesman of the President, Goodluck Jonathan is the worst of all. He came out publicly to say his boss needs no lecture from anybody on how to tackle insurgency. One begins to wonder if the United States' counter-terrorists experts requested for by his boss are coming just to sleep with no advise and ways of actions. Saying his boss has the best way to tackle the Boko Haram insurgency is confirming his own stupidity and the regime's ineptitude.
