Former president of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has expressed confidence in President Muhammadu Buhari’s ability to surmount Nigeria’s challenges.
The former president made the remark while speaking with journalists in Taraba state on Friday, stating that he is certain that Buhari will not disappoint Nigerians.
“So far, Buhari has not disappointed us. I trust him (Buhari), he will not fail Nigerians. I know he will overcome the challenges the country is currently facing,” he said.
Obasanjo also reiterated that his decision to leave the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is final and cannot be reversed.
He noted that having drawn the curtain on his membership of the former ruling party, there is no coming back.
“In the part of the country where I come from, there is a saying that you cannot say ‘good night’ and come back to say ‘good evening’ in the same place,” he said.
“So for me, it is good night for the Peoples Democratic Party and that’s all.
