Atiku praises Obasanjo on his 83rd birthday, says Nigeria owes him a debt


Former vice president Atiku Abubakar has showered praises on ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo ahead of his 83rd birthday.
Obasanjo will be marking his 83rd birthday today being the 5th day of March 5, 2020.

Atiku who was his vice during his administration between 1999 and 2003 stated that Nigeria owes Obasanjo a debt that cannot be paid.
Atiku wrote: “Dear Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, As you turn 83 today, my family and I felicitate with you and thank God for your life. No individual living or dead, has bestrode the Nigerian political space as positively and purposefully, as you have done, for good and better, in peacetime and war, in times of austerity, and times of prosperity.
It is not an exaggeration to describe you as the preeminent political colossus in Nigeria, a nation that owes so much to you. Indeed, many Nigerians would read about your birthday on their GSM devices, which are one of your legacies to the Nigerian people.
“Your love for Nigeria and commitment to her unity, good governance and stability has prevented you from retiring, a sacrifice that my family and I deeply appreciate.
“Nigeria owes you a debt that we cannot pay, because you led us to pay the foreign debts that we could not imagine paying. By that singular action, you planted trees for generations yet unborn.
“You hold the enviable and esteemed record of being the first African military ruler to have voluntarily, and without internal and external pressure, restored power to the government democratically elected by the Nigerian people. It was Not Your Will to be in office, but it was your will to bequeath democracy to Nigeria. And after 21 years of the Fourth Republic, Nigeria has cause to celebrate your democratic credentials.”

There are a lot of people who would go to any length at making sure their favourite celebrities notice them when they come in contact with them, while there are some that do not bother about and just act their normal self even though they are star struck.

The lady whose identity was hidden was privileged to see  Wizkid  at an event talking to someone right in front of her. And as such, in order to get noticed, she kept on fearfully tapping Starboy with the tip of her finger nail, begging him not to ignore her.
