Atiu congratulations, celebrates  Obasanjo as  ultimate African statesman

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), former Vice President Atiku Abubakr, has congratulated former President Olusegun Obasanjo on his success in restoring peace in Ethiopia after two years of bloodshed in the country, celebrating the former President as ultimate African statesman.

Atiku submitted and bowed to Obasanjo’s sterling leadership.

Atiku in a statement recalled that Dr. Obasanjo did the same thing in Liberia and São Tomé and Príncipe during their time in office. Atiku noised that if for nothing else, Obasanjo is most deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize, promsing that he  will nominate him when entries are open for nominations

Atiku’s statement reads: “I celebrate the extraordinary prowess of His Excellency, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, in bringing peace to Ethiopia. I am not surprised. I know my boss. He did the same thing in Liberia and São Tomé and Príncipe during our time in office. If for nothing else, he is most deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize, and I will nominate him when entries are open for nominations.

“Africa is blessed to have a statesman of such impeccable democratic credentials as Chief Obasanjo. A man whose image ought to be in the redesigned Naira note to inspire future generations of Nigerians to sacrifice for their nation and continent.

“On behalf of my family, I congratulate you, President Olusegun Obasanjo, GCFR, for successfully ending the Ethiopia-Tigray conflict. And I thank God for the gift of wisdom and foresight He gave you, which you have used creditably to steer Nigeria and Africa on the right path.”
