The God That Removed Jonathan Will Uproot Buhari In 2019 – Obasanjo

Former Nigerian President, Olusegun Obasanjo has assured members of the Coalition of Nigeria Movement (CNM) that the “God that did it yesterday” by sacking the Goodluck Jonathan government, will uproot President Muhammadu Buhari’s government from power in 2019.

Obasanjo, who said this on Saturday in Ibadan while addressing the Oyo State chapter of the CNM, charged members of the coalition movement to prepare for witch-hunt from the current government.

The former president said, “Our bosses are ready to spearhead this assignment. When those who insist that if they do it well or not, they must still be in charge of the affairs of this country and we say they cannot be there, they will wage war, they will do so with every weapon to fight. Everybody must be prepared.

“It is not easy to remove fruits from the palm kernel tree but if you think it will be easy to deliver Nigeria, you’re deceiving yourselves. God that did it yesterday will do it today again. We should not be discouraged. We have a lot of work to do.

“Our God was laughing then, now he is also laughing. When the time was up then, he confirmed that He is God. He is omnipotent, omnipresent and eternal who can do all things and who can make all things possible. But if we are leaving things to God, we have to play our own part,” Obasanjo added.

Present at the meeting were a former Governor of Osun State, who is also the national coordinator of the movement, Olagunsoye Oyinlola; a former Deputy Governor of Oyo State, Taofeek Arapaja; two former secretaries to the Oyo State Government, Olayiwola Olakojo and Ayodele Adigun; as well as Mr. Oyewole Fasawe.

Obasanjo had initiated the coalition movement after writing to President Buhari, asking him to retire from power in 2019.

The former president had amongst many claims indicted President Buhari of gross incompetence.
