Former president Olusegun Obasanjo has disclosed that he regretted endorsing President Muhammadu Buhari for president in 2015.
He has also denied involvement in his failed ‘third term’ project asserting that he would have gotten this achieved if he had actually wanted a third term.
A writer, Ifedayo Agoro, commonly known as ‘Diary Of A Naija Girl’ quoted the former president to have said this on Friday when they met on a plane .
Team@orientactualmags.com learned Agoro, who tweeted about her encounter with Obasanjo, said she posed questions to the former president and got answers.
‘I made a mistake supporting Buhari, he knew nothing about the economy. We thought he would fight corruption and insecurity, then hire people who know about the economy and infrastructure. Big mistake’ he said.
‘I didn’t want a third term, if I had wanted a third term, I would have gotten it’ the former president also reportedly submitted.
Obasanjo, a retired General, served as Head of State from 1976 to 1979 and later served as Executive President between 1999 and 2007- Team@orientactualmags.com
