President Olusegun Obasanjo is one man you just can't put in a box, he operates out of the box at all times and there is nothing anyone can do to change that. He said Nigeria is now his constituency, not just PDP.
But the Peoples Democratic Party in Rivers State has been crying since they learnt of the invitation the former President got from Governor Rotimi Amaechi with a view to showcase his wonderful works in the state.
"Who in this world would say he does not know that Governor Amaechi built over 350 primary andsecondary schools? But the truth is that Obasanjo is coming to Rivers State to see and inauguration what some blind leaders refused to see."But the opposition PDP is seeing Obasanjo's invitation to Rivers State differently.
PDP on Wednesday described the ex-President’s invitation to the state to commission the Amaechi projects as a display of hypocrisy and pretence. It said the governor invited the ex-President to create the impression that both of them (Obasanjo and Amaechi) had overcome their resentment for each other.
But is anything wrong if Obasanjo and Amaechi reconcile? Is PDP expecting them to be enemies for life?
Reacting to PDP's criticism, Special Assistant to the Interim Chairman of the All Progressives Congress in the state, Chukwuemeka Eze, described Obasanjo as a leader with pedigree and should not be insulted by PDP.
Eze described the planned visit of the former President as historical, adding that the people of the state would come out en mass to welcome him.
In his words, “For the PDP to say that former President Obasanjo was coming to Rivers State to inauguration schoolsand roads built by former Governor Peter Odili shows that they are misguided in their thoughts.
“That Obasanjo said Amaechi’s governorship ambition had K-leg; that was seven years ago and the issue must have been rectified. Why is the PDP still dwelling on the issue?”
Obasanjo is expected in Rivers State on February 17, 2014.
