The former presid...Many questions are raised here.<br /><br />The former president Obasanjo stated he was informed by an expert that Yar'Adua no longer requied dialysis before selecting him for president.<br /><br />Taken from <br />http://www.nigeriancuriosity.com/2010/06/obasanjo-why-i-selected-yaradua-video.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+nigeriancuriosity%2FfpFU+%28NIGERIAN+CURIOSITY%29<br /><br />Under the secton "Obasanjo knew Yar'Adua's health status"<br /><br />1) What kind of judgment was Obasanjo displaying? Wasn't there an ounce of suspicion raised<br />in this report? Why did he see it not necessary to get a second opinion?<br /><br />2) As for Yar'Adua, why did he not bow out of politics when he didn't feel up to it?<br /><br />3) His first wife Turai, has been labelled with all sorts of unpleasant names, but it would appear that she may be in part culpable for the demise of her husband.<br /><br />4) We have seen Nelson Mandela, being discharged (late January 2011) from a hospital in South Africa, he didn't need to fly all the way to Europe for treatment or elsewhere. What is being done under the Jonathan presidency to improve the shambolic health system in Nigeria? Where even the president can't find treatment?<br /><br />5) Why are there no structures in place to prevent the abuse of office? Why wasn't the deputy Vice-president Goodluck Johnathan not allowed to take the reigns of power sooner? What are Nigeria's rulers and society playing at? Why has greed blinded all those in a positions of influence from speaking out against this obvious wrong doing?<br /><br />6) Have Nigerians learned anything from this sorry episode in our collective history? I would say nothing.CodLiverOilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11065155093164512390noreply@blogger.com
