2019: Why I’m Supporting Buhari – Obasanjo’s Son

Despite the apparent unwilling of ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo to support President Muhammadu Buhari’s reelection bid, his son, Olajuwon is obviously pitching his tent in the camp of the current president.

Olajuwon Obasanjo is the national coordinator of Buhari Youth Organisation.

While addressing reporters in Abuja on Wednesday, the son of the former president said the president stood above his peers in the administration of the nation’s finances and resources.

“Buhari believes in promoting Nigerian youths which is the basis of forming this association (BYO),” he said.

“This government has empowered the youths to go into farming and other entrepreneurship.

“This government is laying a good foundation for an expanded economic base and infrastructure development.”

However, his relationship with his father who has preferred candidate in Atiku Abubakar of Peoples Democratic Party, remains cordial despite political difference.

“I’m here as an individual, adult, and someone who believes in this government. Politics can’t separate me and my father. We are still one loving family; our relationship is cordial,” he said.

“Politics is meant to unite us. It is important we rise above ethnicity, religious bigotry, and primordial sentiments.”
