The Peoples Democratic Party has said it has no plans to wade into the rift between President Goodluck Jonathan and former President Olusegun Obasanjo, over the best way to tackle militancy and terrorism in the country.
The National Publicity Secretary of PDP, Olisa Metuh, said the party had not seen any reason to intervene in the argument.
He stated that though Jonathan and Obasanjo had expressed divergent opinions on the 1999 invasion of Odi, it did not amount to conflict between them.
Metuh said, “You only reconcile people who have a misunderstanding or are in a squabble. As far as the party is concerned, there is no quarrel between President Goodluck Jonathan and former President Olusegun Obasanjo, so there is no plan to reconcile them.
“Though both of them have expressed divergent opinions on some national issues, both of them are still working together towards deepening democracy in Nigeria and making sure that we deliver on our promises to the people.”

Jonathan is an ingrate. He is not happy about Odi invasion bcos its his State but what about d killings in Maiduguri?
ReplyDeleteHow will obasanja react if jonathan came to ota and wipe off 99% of the people living there in the name of National security. tell obj to shutup and stop acting like baby
DeleteAny killing is bad! Just becos obasanjo surported Jonathan to rise to d Presidency does not mean that he does not have a mind of his own!
ReplyDeleteMajor Nzegwu bravely went with a group of soldiers and saved Obasanjos life in Congo,when he was captured by a group of congolese soldiers and dumped in d boot of a car to be slaughtered.
So at one point in time in our lives,someone will be ur guardian angel in life! So Obasanjo needs to sit back and play just an advisary role! He meddles a lot in govt matters!
