Reacting to Obasanjo’s claim that Tinubu came into power without a plan, Ajayi said Obasanjo sees himself as the only good leader in Nigeria.

Ajayi said the Nigerian president was implementing bold economic reform programmes Obasanjo initiated and abandoned.

Posting on X, Ajayi wrote: “A video of former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s interview with News Central Television has been trending on social media platforms for the past week. In the interview, the former President, in a veiled reference to the current administration, said Nigeria has a President who came into office without a plan.

“Yet, the same ‘planless’ president is implementing a bold economic reform programme that Obasanjo initiated and abandoned mid-way.

“Despite his foibles and messianic complex, former President Obasanjo is no doubt a remarkable leader. His administration opened the economy and implemented essential reforms that his immediate successor should have continued with.

“What most critics find offensive about the former president is how he sees himself as the only saviour God created for Nigeria. As far as he is concerned, no other leader before and after him has been good enough. For context and clarity, it is essential to recall the former president’s position on deregulating the downstream oil sector when he was in charge.” ..ALSO READ FULL FROM SOURCE ↔️
