FORMER President, Chief Olusegun
Obasanjo, yesterday, sneered at President Goodluck Jonathan for not having
adequate understanding of the Boko Haram insurgency and being unable to proffer
a response to the menace starring the nation in the face.
Besides, Obasanjo also derided
Jonathan’s administration for celebrating what he called “naked corruption”,
which according to him, has hampered the nation’s economy and created problems
for majority of Nigerians.
Obasanjo spoke at the presentation
of an autobiography of the former president of the Court of Appeal and pioneer
chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences
Commission (ICPC), retired Justice Mustapha Akanbi in Abuja.
The former President claimed that
“Boko Haram is not simply a menace based on religion or one directed to
frustrate anybody’s political ambition but essentially a socio-economic problem
that is tainted with religion.”
He noted that apart from not having
a proper understanding of the phenomenon, the Jonathan administration also
wasted time in taking steps to curtail the malevolent group.
He maintained that “President
Jonathan’s understanding of the Boko Haram phenomenon suffered from wrong
reading and wrong imputation. That is what led us to where we are today”.
