Don't Relent In Your Efforts To Help Nigeria Succeed - Obasanjo Charges Ikenga, Five Other Lawmakers
...Says Nigeria Will Burn If We Don't Change The Way Things Are Being Done
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has charged Hon. Ikenga Ugochinyere, the Lawmaker representing Ideato North/South federal constituency of Imo state and five others of his colleagues from the lower chamber of the National Assembly to consistently channel their energies into enacting legislations that are geared towards improving the livelihood of the Nigerian masses.
The former President gave the charge on Friday while playing host to six lawmakers from the House of Representatives led by Hon Ikenga Ugochinyere at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library, Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.Supreme Court, #symfoni #news, #latestnews, #topnigerianews, #labourparty, #Wike, #pdpgovernors, #nlc, #economichardship, #cbn, #nnamdikanu, #dollar to naira rate today, #edo2024, #1USD, #juliusabure, #trump, #donaldtrump, #edoelection, #IPOB, #igbo, ENDBADGOVERNMENTIN NIGERIA, #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria, #ENDBADGOVERNMENTIN NIGERIA, #ENDBGIN, Breaking News, Nationwide Protest,

Who knows Nigeria more than Obasanjo? The best Nigerian president ever.
Encyclopedia of our generation. A well revered senior citizen of our great country, Nigeria, endowed with wisdom. May God keep him for our generation IJMN.
Our elder states man has spoken very well. Thumbs up to everyone
Obj had the best ministers in the history of Nigeria.
Because he was the first. Let him come and rule in the current Nigeria. Good luck 🍀👍
(There are too many corupt people there now. He’d have to completely overhaul everything, even the air).
Yes you are on point
@@Therealclips-ib8bm: I disagree with your argument in total, Ex President Olusegun Obasanjo had the best ministers simply because he was very INTENTIONAL in having the BEST people in his cabinet.
@@wilsononu3765 Because there was no nepotism, he was only interested in assembling the most brilliant Nigerians irrespective of their tribe and tongue. But those that has returned us to the old national anthem that reads "... though tribe and tongues may differ, in brotherhood we stand..." do not practice what they preach.
Thanks to Baba OBASANJO and Senator ugochenyere of Imo. Smart man. People will join this crusade
I have always loved these old man and I got tears rolling down my eyes listening to him, I know people will call him names for this interview but I still belief in him and I give kudos to Ugochinyere for coming to him for guideline. God Bless you OBJ
This man, Obasanjo, is a sage. Sadly, the leadership does not listen to him.
He started with 'we are sitting on a keg of gun powder' and ended with the same words. His strong words of admonishment to guests and the Nigerian government can only come from a wise passionate and patriotic sage.
Baba is the real father of this Nation. Thank you baba.
IKENGA UGOCHINYERE EXHIBITING A HIGH QUALITY LEADERSHIP WITHIN A SHORT TIME.💪
I left Nigeria 49 years ago for the U.S., listening to Gen Obasanjo, l was shedding tears and very sad what most Nigerians are going through. I know how much l sacrifice every month to send funds to my friend and her 7yo daughter in Nsukka. Without my assistance, my friend's daughter wouldn't be able to go to school, and they'll starve to death. Everything about Nigeria is sad, and the issues were caused by the Nigerian politicians.
Stop sending friend money to feed, set him up to start any little thing if possible Sir, in as much as I appreciate you, so many of them are very lazy.
@aluskysystems1129 My friend has multiple degrees. She graduated with a BioChem couple of years ago, and for years, she couldn't find a job. She went back to school, UniNsukka, and just graduated with another degree in pharmacy. Now we have to bribe someone so she can be offered an internship. About a month ago, she told me that she wanted to go into a small business with her sister, raising piglets. So l helped her to buy 6 piglets. She sent me the pictures of the piglets that she's now raising to sell. She'll also start breeding 2 piglets. Hopefully, this will work out for them. My only concern is if anything were to happen to me. My friend and her daughter are going to have a hard time surviving. If she can go through and complete her internship. Then she can open her own Pharmacy. Then l know l have helped a fellow Nigerian. She's Igbo, and l am Urhobo, and l spent my entire childhood in Lagos.
@@elliotono2341you have handicapped your friend. The best thing you can do is let her learn to cope by herself.
This may be OBJ's most redeemable speech yet. Towards the end, you can hear his regret and disappointment for the failed collective leadership that has destroyed the nation.
Obj suppose Dey the bail and that young man with red cap
I agree with your advice, our Father OBJ. You have spoken well.
Obasanjo's depth of knowledge and wisdom is second to none
OBJ>>>Tulumbu
yet you’ve been in darkness all your life, keep defending people that has made your life like this, keep defending the genesis of your problem.
May almighty keep this man in Good health me need a lot from him
I applaud this meeting to one of our founding fathers. I appreciate that this visit is a way to say "thank you" President Obasanjo. In our hearts, you will remain indelible. More Grace to you Sir.
founding fathers of our problems abi? una go dey worship una oppressors.
My Best Leader has said all I have been saying Since. Nigeria's Problem has been the system of government that drives the states, Democracy will never take Nigeria and Africa forward. KWAME NKRUMAH said this and I have noticed it to, Africa Need to develop our Old system which is AFRICANISM. May God bless you Sir. Chief OBJ you will live longer to see Nigeria Change. God Bless 🌍
Thank you Baboo see how he is discussing with those guys , constantly tapping the guy close to him in a fatherly manner . Obasanjo you are a God's gift to Nigerians . Watching from Barcelona Spain.
God bless you Baba!!!!!!! OBJ is an elder statesman !
Thank you for recognizing my papa, baba you are still the best since after military hand over
Thanks baba for telling the legislators the truth
abi thanks for telling them what they want to hear. 🤣🤣
Talking about those who should be in prison, OBJ is number 1 on the list.
Why?
How much did he spend on electricity? Do you have light in Nigeria ?
How did Operation Feed the Nation ( OFN ) become Obasanjo Farm Nigeria (OFN)?
OBJ. Aging like fine wine
Baba ooooo ooooo. Long live sir.
Yes, I agree with you, most of them should not have been moving freely. But why is it not so?
I like the way Ikenga and the rest of the team payed attention in this meeting, we can all do better and always learn more and more
Wow Baba have really changed for good by speaking out the truth
Very brilliant honourable member
Most people say the truth at old age,that’s why am even listening to!!!
LONG LIFE AND DIVINE HEALTH UPON YOU BABA....
AGE GRACELY IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME AMEN 🙏
The greatest problem of Nigeria is INDISCIPLINE.... FISCAL AND MORAL INDISCIPLINE...... which invariably gave birth to CORRUPTION in all facet of human lives.
The best solution to Nigeria problems is total decentralisation of powers and resource control management by regions.
OBJ is my mentor anytime any day speaking truth to power though he has his short falls but he remains my Hero 👍
your hero kept you in darkness all your life and would do the same to your children, keep having heroes like these, i pity your kids.
Past President Obasanjo spoke well. How do we hold our leaders accountable.
Thank u our rep members, Nigeria is indeed dare to u. Obasanjo is full of wisdom, how I wish he did more during his tenure, but seing Buhari and now Tinubu, Obasanjo is by far better.
Baba Obj is really an elderstateman indeed
Ugochinyere is a great guy. How i wish he could work with peter Obi. He has a great vision.
Chief Obasanjo is highly gifted. Even at his age he's progressive in sound mind and judgement. God bless you sir.
OBJ did a lot of good things when he was president, he is in fact the best president we've had since 1999, but he is also the reason why we are in this mess today because while he did a lot of great things, he not only failed woefully in the most important areas that would have changed this country, but he consciously worked to make things this way. He is the one that started the corruption in the National Assembly with the Ghana must go bags that he used to flood the NA with anytime he wanted something done his way. He is the one that fought to remove Okadigbo as Senate President because he was not a puppet to him. He tried to run for a third term by using sycophants and acting like he had no hand in it. He is the one that started this nonsense that happens today where agencies like EFCC or the police only see something wrong when the person is in the opposition or has fallen out of favour with the government but once you are their friend, sonehow they never have "evidence" then to prosecute the person.. I can go on. The problem is that these things - rule of law, justice and accountability are more important than all the great things he did for the economy because that is the foundation upon which a great country can be built, and he failed woefully there.
@@007alztruli Obj is the curse of all the mess going on in Nigeria now.
Tinubu is going to surprise majority of nigerians before the end of his 4 years mandate together with his team... Mark my words today is 13th of august 2024❤ you all.
@@ibraheemgbadegesin1694 surprise positively or negatively.
@@donphilipayo3920 Most likely Negatively
@@007alztruli God bless you and your wisdom bro, you are not myopic like other commentators who are seeing Obj as a saint or saviour despite all the atrocities he committed while in government and the backwardness it has caused the country and the after effects on the country till now.
I am happy each time I see Baba OBJ and this started from the very moment he gave Obi his support during the past election campaign ❤❤
Well spoken, Sir. Assigning terms to the presidency is not really the issues. Tinubu has only been in office, a little over a year. Look at the damage caused already. Gen Obasanjo has spoken the truth. It's the politicians destroying Nigeria.
Baba is naturally gifted.his personal physique is unique.
Every man is common. The idea that important Nigerians and ordinary Nigerians should be done away with. I vote for you to become a leader, and afterwards, I become an ordinary citizen.
Obasanjo is very right. Those visitors or visiting reps should go back to their chamber and do the needful. You can be the one fixing your own salaries. That is very unacceptable. And you are asking why are Nigerians protesting. Enough is enough for these politicians.
Baba, you are not excluded. You're all the same. you should be in jail too
Ugochinyere, Thank you for answering this call, you are a gem.
Ex President Olusegun Obasanjo is not given enough respect that he actually deserved, he speaks his opinion unambiguously no matter whose ox is gored.
OBJ brooked no opposition during his time. He was all about political consensus. A visionary and courageous leader. He harnessed the best of human resources, regardless of tribes, to deliver valuable services. His albatross was the third term misadventure. Kudos to Baba 💪💪💪
Yes I love obj he is a man of human feelings
His Excellency Chief Olusegun Obasanjo GCFR PHD giving his wealth of political and economic know how and experience to the legislature on the task of Nation building.
Wisdom from a Great Man! OBJ the living legend!❤
I will wait till OBJ tell Obi one truth before I believe this your statement.
Same OBJ that gave the national Assembly jumbo in our budget for his 3rd term bid? Till today we are unable to remove the jumbo.
Ikenga you are IMO state future governor,I hope you preparing?.
Wike is one person who supposed to be in Kuje prison by now, and it will still happen.
I would have been surprised if one of you didn't mention Wike. Since this is the anti Wike channel.
In hell fire u meant?
The emergence of the likes of Buhari, GEJ, and Tinubu has successfully made OBJ a saint, yet he was the architect of some of these issues.
Good to see he blamed himself too.
Take a look at the power sector. 😢😢😢
OBJ has finally joined the common man in complaining about the same Nigeria. When you hear such men complain after leaving office, then you would understand the reason you need to JaPa. Our character in that country is completely alien to development.
Na bad man. He brought in the current bad system practised today . Na just wise man
@@militarybishop6053 Very well said.
The silence in the room when he showed them their reflection in the mirror. GAAWWD 😭
The Lord told me tell the president to act fast because he has a limited time.
You mean it?
@@ayoolaolaobaju6797 the lord speaks to yourself and pastors and fortune tellers in my country but nothing you guys say manifests, so please keep it to yourself
Baba Obasanjo has spoken the truth about the cankerworm that has the potential to eat up Nigeria and everybody and that is corrupt practices. Corruption-free governance with equitable distribution of resources and robust policies are what could make Nigeria stand as great nation of citizens where no one cries of being mated injustice. Who leads does not matter if the head is made to treat all fairly and be shielded constitutionally from being biased in projects execution, appointments into offices, etc.
That's right.
Your Excellency, God will extend your lifespan as you continue to speak the truth. All the allowances taken by the legislatures will fix this county with companies & refineries that will put beans, rice, garri etc on the poor man's table. We still know that "There is GOD"
It's now easier to wish we had the controversial third term than this charade of clueless APC marauders in power.
If not that Nigeria is a Banana Republic, people like Obasangu should have been in prison.... all the problems that Nigeria is going through today were created by this man.
I don’t agree with you,we were better as a country and more United when obasanjo was in power,look where we are today
Someone that cleared national debt ?? Someone that has the highest GDP deficit, someone that has one of the best infrastructure development in Nigeria history
⛔STOP⛔ calling some Nigerians ELITES, nobody is elite in Nigerian constitution 🇳🇬 They are simply politicians, government officials❗END
God bless obj, he is a blessing to this country. He has spoken the raw truth. If our politicians are wise they should listen because a day will come that they may have to pay for their atrocities with their lives. A word is enough for the wise
OBJ fear no body,Kudos to Baba Obasanjo the one and only Ebora Òwu
Indeed, the former President of Nigeria; the person of Chief O. Obasanjo perfectly hitted the nail on the head. In Nigeria, the solution areas applicable to resolving our problems lies on: character reform, leadership and management.
These guys have good intentions but their bill is fundamentally flawed. First it is latently built on the premise that no matter how good a leader is, he will be biased against the other regions when office. Secondly, it assumes that when it is the turn of a region, the leader they present is always going to be better than whomever the other region presents. Thirdly it is indirectly suggesting that a leader should focus only on his region when in office.
Guys, Nigeria needs an equitable election process for the people and not a peripherally balanced system of “you chop I chop” for politicians. Fix the electoral system and Let the people choose who they think is the best.
You’re on point, votes don’t count in Nigeria. It’s selection they do.
This is a very wonderful submission. I share same concern towards the group's objectives - it is flawed.
Biggest Mistake Nigerians made is voting APC into power, the worst is Voting Tinubu and Shettima. God help us all
General Olusegun Mathew Obasanjo. GCFR.
God bless you sir.
Obj still remains one of the best we've had in the country.
In my State Enugu, power is being rotate within the three senatorial regions of the state since 1999.
This has been our little secret, it's been a peaceful state since this republic. Every zone is being carried along which gave room for competition among the present leader and past leaders in terms of attracting development to the zone of incumbency.
Imagine the same experience at National level?
The people of your State are better than the people of Dubai, Kuwait, Europe, etc. 'Decarbonise' your upstairs
Still the best president in Nigeria,he save huge sums of money in Nigeria foreign reserves and paid off Nigeria foreign debts. Nigerians was respected all over the world. I wish he is still Nigeria presidents.
Wise words from a wise man, thank you sir.
Baba Obj. How can we put him in prison so that things will normalise? Help us biko
God bless u our baba, president u are saying the truth, allwas,
Thank You BABA OBJ. Considering where we're coming from the Military era you did better than all your successors till date. The facts are there.
The only thing I have against you is the 3rd Term bid which didn't work anyway. However, your Government had a human face not these Bandits we have in Govt. Lately
Hon Barr. Ugochinyere please listen attentively to the Wise man because you and your colleagues will gain a lot that will be useful to all.
OBJ is Great Asset
I agree one hundred percent with OBJ. Character of individuals not institutions, not term or tenure not tribes either.
OBJ looks them in their faces and tells them the hard truth. Just as the lawyers and activist who looked Ganduje and hiis team in their faces and told him the truth.
'Some of the blocks we are putting in place' have been removed sadly 🙆- obj
Thank god for outspoken and sound health sir
Baba you are the best so far any one with contrary opinions have lost his or sense.
GOD BLESS YOU BABA. YOU HAVE INDEED SPOKEN LIKE A STATESMAN AND PATRIOT. MAY YOU LIVE LONG TO SEE THE NEW NIGERIA YOU HAVE ALWAYS ADVOCATED. 🙏🙏🙏
This is needed.. A must watch and honestly, things can't keep going the way they are...
Baba Obasanjo said it all: "We have to decarbonise our brain" 🤣😂
Under obj there was extremely corruption but there was also some developments. After obj it has been a case of extreme corruption with no developments at all. The greedy grows year after year.
Father what you have said is the exact situation in Nigeria but We don't want the 1999 constitution and should be set aside because it's the main causes of most our problems.Rather true federalism should be put in place with a new people's constitution that's the first thing that should be done immediately please sir.
Presidency should be by merit not by tribe nor religion but by competence,performance and for this to be effective regional government should be deployed and that will impact on the citizens.
Brilliant 😢Nigerians start to do things the right way.
NO MORE CORRUPTION ❤
Is only mouthy Nigeria will never work. Divide the country to progress. a nation that roatating a presidency is not a nation. A good country doesn't roatate the presidency by voting. If you can't agree to choose one president by honest and hard working is not good. How can you be together if you don't trust each other? It is better you divide. Were tribal is not going to work. Is only a nation ofthesame language culture religion that's what's determined a nation.
I love this man ,I don't know why people don't like him.he is an epitome of an elder.he looks you to your face and tell you the truth as they are,he is actually preparing his ways to heaven by setting his past mistakes trying to make right by standing by the truth as an elder..not those that has celebrated 90 yet still so hypocritical as ever this man is so patriotic more than Soyinka who claimed to fighting for people yet he is just fighting ethnic war using all sorts of delogatory statements and means
If we don't deal decisively with these so-called political leaders, the country called Nigeria will be a history in modern countries.
OBJ, you're too much, he says it as it is. The background of our leaders is very important.
Baba OBJ thanks for telling them the truth instead of asking how to end hunger they were asking how to rotate power. Address the burning question of hunger to reach all families in the country. If you don't have a good register of families, work with religious leaders to create a register of vulnerable families and empower homes in Nigeria, hunger will go. This should be your first agenda, after then you can rotate the power...they way you want.
Thank ether to remind them well all same Nigeria when the eyes is crying 😢 nose 👃 also crying, god bless Nigeria 😢😢
Wisdom of an elder state man but i didn't see anyone of them written down all the point he mentioned.
"When we were there, we did our best". Unfortunately, your best was a failure: Mediocre constitution, obstruction to allow real competent people to take charge. As an elder, respect is your due, but your service to Nigeria is actually a disservice. For these set of people that went to seek for rotation of power, instead of upholding standard in governance, they should cover their faces in shame. These are the faces of our problem.
Right 👍@Yomiyankee.... especially, about the "mediocre constitution"....😮
Bless you plenty 🙏🏼 My thoughts exactly!
The problem with Nigeria is the problem of leadership. The best system of government will fail in Nigeria. Baba is right, the problem is the character of the people leading us.
See them like school children. Our leaders are such a shameless bunch of people.
@@Bulaba309 It's hypocrisy that is worrying all of them, as both the leader and the so called youth are birds of the same feather, they are also following the footsteps their so called leaders laid down in our political land space. They are all a bunch of corruption settings with a selfish agenda as their primary motive for being in politics and governance.
@@Bulaba309 lol at see them like school children
Well said Baba God bless
Great speech from the amiable baba OBJ God bless you daddy
At President Obasanjo's age, he is still too cerebral, making long speech without the help of a teleprompter or written speech.More grace sir.
God bless you Sir 🙏
Nigeria is a funny State where those in position to make laws will go to those out of power to help them solve the problems that lawmaking can solve.
And don't tell me it's about influence or lobbying. We must do away with the old order and face the future with our best strategies.
I love and respect OBJ any day for his nationalistic ideas and decisiveness. Calm, yet full of wisdom. May Nigeria succeed.
The world over, young leaders seek wisdom from good old people.
@@yabofabian1826 seeking wisdom is welcomed and needed. This is not what it is in this case. Are they seeking wisdom for the 200 million the executive shared to federal legislators or on the 100 million the executive shared to them according to OBJ in the video amid this hunger in the land?
This was not a wisdom seeking move. Those in authority knows exactly what needs to be done. But too selfish to do it.
Have you asked yourself why is it that Nigerian leaders know exactly what needs to be done to fix our problems before they get into office. And they also know the solutions when they leave office. The only time they seem not to know the solutions and go on "wisdom seeking missions" is when they're in office?
Master gaslighter. Obj is right o but he was also the architect of the rot. The refineries were functional when he took power. Nitel was killed, mtn and co took over. Obj oversaw bad elections, assassinations. Impunity. Him and atiku enriched themselves like mad. Tinubu too was madly enriching himself same time.
Obj is very smart
This country is sick
God, please heal our land
Young federal representatives actually think one term presidency of 6 years and power rotation between north and south will solve Nigeria’s problem?? When I heard restructuring I was thinking they were proposing dropping this unitary system of government.
Such talk are surprise to be lecture at national level of political education on leadership.
