President Muhammadu Buhari and former President Olusegun Obasanjo
The Nasarawa State chapter of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) has called on President Muhammadu Buhari not to listen to the advice by former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
The group urged Buhari to go ahead with his plans to contest in the 2019 general elections. State Chairman of MACBAN, Muhammed Hussaini, who stated this yesterday in a chat with newsmen in Lafia, said Obasanjo always wanted to control a sitting president and when he met a brick wall in the process, he would turn against the said president.
“Obasanjo wants to install one of his cronies to be the next President of Nigeria; someone he will be controlling from his bedroom.
“Obasanjo brought Jonathan alongside late President Umaru Yar’adua with the intention to remote-control them and after the demise of Yar’adua, Jonathan defied Obasanjo’s unnecessary interference in his government and he turned against him,” he said.
