Former Senate Chief Whip and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Edo State, Senator Rowland Owie, has advised Chief Olusegun Obasanjo to go before God to atone for the sins he committed against those who brought him out of prison, his tribe, the PDP, Nigeria and Nigerians.
Owie, who was reacting to the former President’s endorsement of Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, for the the February’s presidential election, described Obasanjo as a major destroyer of Nigeria.
He said the former Nigeria President “hates those who say the truth,” adding no one should be deceived by his antics.
According to Owie, “He was in prison, when a great Nigerian, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida (retd) invited his close friends, including my humble self to Minna, Niger State sometimes 1998. After a meeting that lasted 8 hrs, a prisoner, an ungrateful one for that matter was adopted and at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential primaries in Jos, Plateau State, an ex-convict became candidate.
“Gen. IBB, Alh. Atiku Abubakar, Sen. Orji Kalu and a host of others raised money to rehabilitate him and also to finance his election. In his election, he lost his entire South West zone. Yet, he won the election with votes from other zones of Nigeria. A man who claims to be upright and calls other unprintable names wanted unconstitutional third term. WHAT A BANDIT IN AGBADA!”
The former Senator insisted that Obasanjo “hates Alhaji Atiku Abubakar because he fought against OBJ’s satanic third term agenda. Nothing more!! and nothing less!”
Owie called on Nigerians to investigate OBJ on why he destroyed all toll bridges in Nigeria during his tenure. “Was OBJ not the President that started sharing “Ghana must go bags” full of cash in the NASS? The Edos have a parable which says that ‘A man caught with having sex with a married woman in the farm has no moral justification to take part in the choice of a youth leader in the same community.”“Nigerians have not forgotten how he raped the Transitional Decree of 1978, when he shifted the political goal post in the middle of the match in 1979 when he removed the provision for electoral college in the that Transition Decree of 1978,” he said.
