Nigeria’s political landscape, from the Federal to the local levels, presents a reward system that appears to encourage profligacy recklessness, and thieving by public officeholders. For example, the “temporary” forfeitures of various assets by the former Central Bank Governor Godwin Emeifele and of course the $153 million looted by the former minister of petroleum, Diezani Allison-Madueke to the Nigerian government, and many other criminalities of public officers, once again point to the mindset of terrorists in our beloved country Nigeria. 

 The former Head of state/President came from a Nigerian village of Ibogun-Olaogun, Ifo, Ogun State, Nigeria, to the pinnacle of power on the continent. Obasanjo was Nigeria’s military head of state between 1976 and 1979 and two-time democratically elected president, from 1999 to 2007. “OBJ”, as he is widely called, is probably the most globally known and celebrated Nigerian leader.
