I’ll support any candidate that’ll turn Nigeria’s fortune around –Obasanjo ||| NEWS CORNER

A former President, Olusegun Obasanj, has said he will support any Nigerian who will turn the country’s fortune around for good. 

He said this on Thursday when he received a former Minister of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta. 

Turaki, who is a presidential aspirant, came with a 10-man delegation that included a former governor of Adamawa State, Boni Haruna.
Obasanjo reiterated that he would not rest until the fortunes of Nigeria are “turned around for good.” He identified the dearth of “qualitative leadership” as one of the major challenges confronting Nigeria, adding that men of goodwill must not keep quiet in the face of misrule. 

He then called for concerted efforts from the political class towards providing the country with better leadership.

He said, “Let me say that what is happening here today or what you’re making to happen with your delegation particularly gladdens my heart. “You are firming up and stabilising our democracy. Democracy is not a destination but a journey and there is no nation that can claim to have reached the final destination. 

It is good for us as a nation and our democracy. We have said a lot of things that we have identified about what we need to put right as a country.
