Attacks On President Jonathan: Obasanjo becoming more confused – Presidency

The Presidency yesterday reacted angrily to the continuous vituperations being poured on President Goodluck Jonathan by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, describing the Ota farmer as a confused man. The Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Alhaji Ahmed Gulak, made the remark exclusively to Sunday Vanguard while reacting to newspaper reports yesterday in which the former president was quoted as heaping the blame for the insurgency in the country on Jonathan.

Gulak said Nigerians should not take Obasanjo’s criticism of Jonathan serious because it was either his comments were based on ignorance or outright mischief or both, but primarily geared towards confusing the people and distracting the Presidency from delivering on its promise to Nigerians.
According to the President’s aide, the security problem in Nigeria actually started during Obasanjo’s presidency and peaked during Yar’Adua’s time and was merely inherited by the present administration.
