Chief Okey Nwosu
The African Democratic Congress, ADC, which has been adopted by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, has warned the Federal Government of Nigeria that it will shut down the Presidential Villa if the ex-president is harmed.
The Chairman of the ADC, Chief Okey Nwosu, said having failed to deliver on its campaign promises, the Buhari-led government had resorted to bullying opposition members into submission.
Obasanjo had on Friday accused the President Muhammadu Buhari of planning to frame him.
He claimed that he has been informed of his name included on the government’s “watch list”, and that the security of his life cannot be guaranteed
Reacting, however, Nwosu said when Obasanjo was supporting Buhari during the run-up to the 2015 general elections; he was described as an advocate of change by the current president and his supporters, but the same man was now being treated as a criminal because he was speaking against the government.
The ADC chairman said, “What we are witnessing is the desperation of a failed government. When you have mediocre persons that are not focused on handling state power, they often go to dictatorial levels to try to achieve their aim but this time, the people of Nigeria and God are on our side and we will do what our country needs.
“President Obasanjo cannot be touched. When in 2014 and 2015, he was in the vanguard of trying to effect change because of the situation then, they were applauding him as the champion of a new Nigeria.
“Now that things have gone wrong in the area of security and economy and he is speaking out, they are now chasing the champion of new Nigeria. We will mobilise the whole of Nigeria to take over Aso Rock Villa if the government steps out of line.”
