Chairman of the Organisation and Mobilisation Committee of the Peoples DemocraticPresident Olusegun Obasanjo is morally bankrupt....
Kashamu said this in a statement he issued in Lagos in reaction to Obasanjo’s letter to
the leadership of the PDP, in which the former president said he could not work with him
because of his alleged criminal past.
Chief Obasanjo had said in the letter that he had no grouse against anybody in his
party, but he would not accept a wanted drug baron as the PDP leader in his region, the
South West.
The former president had insisted that the issue bordered on principle and morality.
But Kashamu, apart from denying the allegation, said that the obvious question
Nigerians should ask Obasanjo is whether he has any justification to moralise and
pontificate at all, given his well-chronicled personal moral bankruptcy.
He also maintained that Obasanjo’s statements exhibit his disdain for the rule of law
and the authority of the courts “since this cocktail of lies comprise the same malicious
falsehood that is the subject of the libel action I have commenced against him and in
which trial is to commence tomorrow, Tuesday, 14th October, 2014”.
The PDP chieftain said, “The indubitable fact of history that Baba Obasanjo has not told
the world is that it was during his first tenure as president that he and former Beninoise
president, Matthew Kerekou directed the relevant security agencies to give truthful
evidence that rebutted the false allegation that I was a habitual criminal or involved in
any drug related crime.”
He also alleged that it was for this reason that the Interpol in Benin Republic and the
National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Nigeria came to the London courts
between 2000 and 2002 to give evidence during his incarceration and trial.
Kashamu further alleged that chief Obasanjo used him to prosecute his battle against
former Governor Gbenga Daniel and to wrest the control of the PDP from Otunba Daniel
in 2011 and it was time to field candidates for the 2011 general elections, Obasanjo
brought “his stooge”, Gen. Adetunji Olurin, and asked him to roll the party structure
behind his anointed candidate.
He said, “Despite his pretensions, the reason I have become the target of Obasanjo’s
wicked campaign of calumny and blackmail is because he perceives me as his obstacle
to the control of the PDP structures in Ogun State and in the South West.
“Chief Obasanjo has publicly declared his opposition to the second term entitlement of
President Goodluck Jonathan and had wanted to use the erstwhile National Secretary,
Olagunsoye Oyinlola; the former National Auditor, Bode Mustapha and the ex-National
Vice-Chairman, Segun Oni, to thwart Mr. President’s re-election. The almighty Allah
Subhana wa tala used me to stand up to him and the rest is history

I don't need to ask, obasanjo can never be mandela. He has no integrity, but show of shame.A stateman that talks anyhow. A misused opportunity at the time of growth. What evil men do lives with them in their life time. God will surely pay all of you that has made Nigeria and its children to suffer lost. Emulate Gowon as a stateman.
