Buhari's plot against Saraki revealed during Obasanjo's visit

Obasanjo and Buhari

It is a popular saying that he who goes to equity must come with equity. Virtually every Nigerian knows how corruption was promoted during the era of former President Obasanjo, in his desperate move to cling unto power for a second term and the carry-go slogan that followed it, and worst of it all, his selfish third term ambition that made money to be share daily in Ghana-must-go bag.



Also, could it be the fear of being prosecuted by Buhari that quickly made him to identify with him and gave him all support at the dying minute? perhaps, to keep memory of such dying minute support alive, may be responsible for his continuous visit to the Presidential Villa.

Lately, Obasanjo visited President Buhari at the Villa, which according to anonymous sources was centred on plans on how the President could wipe out 'corrupt elements' in the National Assembly.

According Obasanjo, as reported by SaharaReporters, with the likes of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, at the National Assembly, Buhari’s anti-graft war cannot achieved the desired result.

According to a presidential source, Obasanjo told Buhari to spend more than what Saraki is spending if he really wants to kick him out of the National Assembly.

The President, while responding to Obasanjo, repeated his determination to ensure all corrupt National Assembly members face prosecution.

However, he lamented the level of compromise in the judiciary, and gave some examples to that effect.

Furthermore, it was revealed by sources in the Presidency that, what is making the president uncomfortable may not be corruption as claimed, but Saraki’s ambition of eyeing the number one seat. Thus, he has vowed to bring him down at all cost.

Therefore, the questions concerned Nigerians keep asking is, Obasanjo who is popularly called the father of corruption now a saint, or is it a pot calling kettle black?
