“Avoid Obasanjo” – Senator Rowland Owie Issues Warning To Buhari
Senator Rowland Owie, former Chief Whip of the Senate, has advised Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), to steer clear from former President Olusegun Obasanjo, if he wants his incoming administration to be a successful one.
Senator Rowland Owie, gave the advice in Benin City Edo State, on Thursday, saying, “To Buhari, I thank God for you, but you must deliver on your promises and also build on what President Goodluck Jonathan did. Above all, you must run far from Obasanjo. If he can’t control your government, he will fight you.”
“He has done it to all former Presidents of Nigeria and even against MKO Abiola who was not sworn in. Never discuss with Obasanjo unless you have at least two of your aides present.”
“Half way into the tenure of President Jonathan, Obasanjo started trouble making by naming presidential and vice-presidential candidates.”
“First it was Governor Sule Lamido as president and Governor Rotimi Amaechi as his deputy. A respectable Lamido, a founding father of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP while Obasanjo was in prison, was being urged to fight PDP.”
