Jonathan Is Being Confused By Those Around Him -Obasanjo

Former president Olusegun Obasanjo has advised President
Goodluck Jonathan to beware of some of his aides who are confusing
him and making more enemies for him in the pretext of doing their
jobs. “Obasanjo did not mince words in telling President Jonathan the
bitter truth. He told him clearly to beware of some of his aides
who are making life difficult for him through their unguarded
utterances that are making more enemies for him”. He also advised Jonathan to start running an inclusive government so
as to douse tension in the ruling PDP. Obasanjo gave the advice during one of the marathon meetings held
on Wednesday, shortly after he returned from Ibadan for the
continuation of the peace meeting he was having with PDP governors
in the presidential villa. Some of the governors and party chieftains,
including some members of Jonathan’s kitchen cabinet, were in
attendance. Obasanjo was also said to have reconciled with Jonathan over the
endless political feud concerning the 2015 poll after the latter
reportedly tendered an unreserved apology to Obasanjo, who vowed
to discourage any aggrieved governor from defecting to the
opposition. According to a credible presidency source, both Jonathan and
Obasanjo have met not fewer than four times over their differences
and the one between the aggrieved PDP governors and Tukur. The
source added that it was the process of restoring normalcy to the
party that forced the president and Obasanjo to bury their differences
in order to save Jonathan from defeat come 2015. The fear of the All Progressives Congress, APC, is the reason
Jonathan begged Obasanjo to intervene.
