I Did Not Say Re-Electing Buhari In 2019 Will Collapse Nigeria” – Obasanjo

Ex-president, Olusegun Obasanjo has denied reports that he said that re-electing President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019 will collapse Nigeria.
The former head of state in a recent interview said that he never made such a statement. It was widely reported last week that Obasanjo made the comment while delivering a speech at the Bravatnik school of Government at Oxford University.
He said he has not visited London since early January 2018. He told Premiumtimes;
“I won’t and can’t say that (that Nigeria will collapse if Buhari is reelected). There will be nothing that will make Nigeria collapse. When Nigeria did not collapse under a civil war, it won’t collapse now.
My faith and conviction about Nigeria is so strong that I don’t see the country either being dismembered or collapsing. The worst has passed on Nigeria. Once we were able to survive the civil war, once we are able to survive (Sani) Abacha, nothing can be worst than those two. And our democracy is waxing strong. Although there are a few things we need to get right.
As far I am concerned, the worst is over. What remains is for all of us and for our leadership to show good faith and commitment to do what is right. Then Nigeria will grow from strength to strength.

Two MTV Awards Or 3 AFRIMA Awards, Which Will You Pick ?

Awards are good things in all aspect of profession. But in the entertainment section awards are seen as “gods” and most artiste crave to have these “gods” attached to their musical career. That reminds me of how Davido Jubilated when he won an award in the just concluded AFRIMA 2017, which was held in Eko hotel, lagos and also he claimed two MTV Awards in just one night. (That’s a record breaker there). Davido’s well know counterpart, Wizkid, was not left out as he grabbed 3 AFRIMA Awards. . Though the “Daddy Yo” Crooner wasn’t as jumpy and celebrative as Davido when he collected these awards. Nevertheless, they both won awards. Now the question is; Two MTV Awards Or 3 AFRIMA Awards! Which Will You Pick ?
