"With sarcastic glee, former President Olusegun Obasanjo told supplicating PDP leaders pressuring him to return to the party that he never left the party in the first instance. He, however, admitted to being passive. He put down his passivity to what he grandiloquently described as his “principle, morality, honour, integrity, commitment and character which are paramount.” He could have fooled us. Given his failed third term project, the Transcorp shares deal, his cruel mistreatment of political opponents, etc, there is nothing about his person or ideas that exemplifies any of the virtues he undeservingly arrogates to himself." - Adekunle Ade-Adeleye.

Icheoku agrees and adds that the same Southwest PDP coordinator he is now attacking and accusing of all manner of things equally once worked for him, as a sitting president, in his unrelenting war of attrition with then Ogun State Governor Gbenga Daniels. Then, Olusegun Obasanjo never knew or did not know or deliberately chose to forget that the man he is now accusing of being Nigeria's 'Pablo Escobar' and waging war against, was then so suspected? Also Obasanjo in his hypocritical style of selective self absolution, has not told Nigerians how he went from having zero money before he became president to now being a billionaire? But hey, it is Nigerians and their usual mental inertia that allows such despicable vermin as Baba Iyabo to still remain relevant in the affairs of the land after all they did. Icheoku says what a jerk this Ota deity is, that won't just fade away into irrelevancy just because of their being too self absorbed in their illusionary importance, like without them, Nigeria will evaporate?
