The Conference of Nigerian Political Parties, CNPP, has asked
President Goodluck Jonathan to resign “because Obasanjo has clearly
spoken the minds of all Nigerians and it is clear that Nigerians have
lost faith in this administration.”
The Benue state chairman of the CNPP, Mr. Baba Agan who Thursday
reacted in Makurdi, the Benue state capital, to the 18 page letter that
was written to President Goodluck Jonathan by former a President
Obasanjo said “the letter was explicit enough and it has actually opened
the eyes of all Nigerians to how this administration is underdeveloping
our country.
“Obasanjo is absolutely correct about all the issues he raised and I
urge the president to save his face and step aside because we have never
had it this bad as a nation.
“I actually praise the courage of the former President who has
clearly shown that he is an elder statesman who does not waste time to
raise an alarm when his country is drifting unlike some jobbers who hang
around
the president for survival.”
The CNPP chairman however, also blamed the former President Obasanjo
for what he described as “the misrule and plunging of the nation.”
“Even though we appreciate Obasanjo for his bravery, we canoot also
fail to point out that he shares in the blame for what this country is
currently passing through.
“It was Obasanjo who pronounced President Jonathan as his son and
thereafter imposed and fostered him on Nigerians, and what do we have
today? This is certainly not we hoped for.
“The truth is Obasanjo should also be held responsible for all the
pains inflicted on Nigerians, the misrule and underdevelopment of this
country by the present administration, that s simply the truth,” Agan
said. [Vanguard]
