I’m willing to Die for Nigeria — Former pres. Obasanjo declared

                  
Former president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has declared he is ready to be the sacrificial lamb  to save Nigeria. However, he said he would not do the same for any political party. # What a great way to atone for his sins. After it was largely reported he introduced corruption and his successors further introduced corruption impunity. Lol!#
Anyway, he made this known on Thursday during a visit to his Hilltop residence in Abeokuta by the presidential candidate of the National Conscience Party, Dr. Martins Onovo.
 
He said since he left office his pre-occupation had been the promotion of the country’s interest, adding that it would be foolish for anyone to say Nigeria did not belong to anybody.
 
He said, “My first pre-occupation is what is best for Nigeria. Nigeria first, party second and any other thing, third. I can sacrifice anything in the interest of Nigeria and I can sacrifice my own life for Nigeria.
 
“I can’t sacrifice my life for any party’s interest but I’ll sacrifice my life in the interest of Nigeria.”
He frowned on the situation where everyone would keep quiet and watch things degenerate in the country.
 
What do you think?
