Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said that former
President Goodluck Jonathan from his first days as President showed he
was too small for the office, saying he, Obasanjo, acted more as an opponent of
Jonathan than a supporter of Muhammadu Buhari ahead of the 2015 presidential
poll.
Obasanjo,
who said Jonathan deceived him that he would not give Mrs. Diezani
Allison-Madueke the petroleum portfolio in his cabinet was deceived into
believing that he could use money to buy the 2015 presidential election.
Obasanjo in the book, Against the Run of Play: How an Incumbent President was defeated in Nigeria, written by former presidential spokesman, Segun Adeniyi, also revealed that Jonathan was gripped by the fear that Buhari, as president, would jail him or lead him to an early grave.
