Why Buhari Should Arrest Obasanjo – Oshiomhole

Former Edo state Governor, Adams Oshiomhole has joined the train of people verbally attacking Chief Olusegun Obasanjo’s recent advancements in politics.

The ex-governor, who is aspiring to be the next National chairman of the ruling All Progressive’s Congress said he would have had the elder stateman arrested if he was President Muhammadu Buhari.

He therefore called on the President to probe and arrest the former president “if he has committed any offence”.

Oshiomhole said this at an event held in honour of late MKO Abiola’s family.

“He should be arrested if he has committed any offence. He arrested many of us. So, if we are celebrating Chief Gani Fawehinmi, we have
compelling reasons to do so. In all of these, we didn’t pay any money to Gani or Falana. They defended us pro
bono.

“Gani is not here today, but his spirit is here. Falana is here and today, I am standing. Even the president who
was in charge then, he is now complaining that they want
to harass him. He was harassing me and he got me arrested.

“He thought he himself would not be arrested? If I were the president I would arrest him. We are all Nigerians. I
remember one day I told him, I said ‘President Obasanjo, we made you president. You did not make me a Nigerian.

“’You are our creation; I am not your creation. You must listen’. But he thought he would be in power forever and he tried to take us on the way to Zimbabwe.

“He was a reluctant Head of State, became president for two terms and he wanted to do a third term because a
cockroach licking palm oil would never lick enough”, he expressly said.
