Certain Nigerian President came to office without plan – Obasanjo alleges
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, has said the leadership deficit in the world, especially in Africa and particularly in Nigeria, is responsible for the situation the country has found itself in.
Obasanjo accused an unnamed Nigerian president of coming to office without a plan.
He said the President made a pronouncement on an issue that hadn’t been studied, arguing that it shows a lack of leadership quality.
The former President, who spoke on Thursday in an exclusive interview with Kayode Akintemi on News Central Television, stressed that leadership is something Nigeria should pay attention to.
Obasanjo said: “I will say, at this point in time, generally there’s a leadership deficit in the world. Otherwise, the situation we have found ourselves in should not be the position we are in. Unfortunately, in Africa, and in Nigeria in particular, we take two steps forward, one step sideways, and take two or three steps backward. That can’t take us far. Leadership is something we should pay attention to.
“What do you say of a Nigerian President who came to office without a plan? And he woke up and just said, ‘three-point plan.’ What are the three points? What are they going to achieve? Who are the people who have worked on it? Oh, you just come and open your mouth and make a pronouncement on something that hasn’t been studied.
“Let me again give you an example: when I was military Head of State, we decided to really be part of the frontline states to fight the last vestiges of colonialism and apartheid.
“And we were determined. So, as a result of our policy, pronouncements, and determination, we became known as members of the frontline states, even though we were a thousand kilometers from the frontline. And we decided that we must do what needed to be done. We worked with the frontline states.”
