Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, says he has never at any time endorsed the political prowess of All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, and disparaged the military.
Obasanjo in a viral WhatsApp message was quoted to have said: “I am not a politician; I am a decorated soldier, an army general. If you are looking for thorough bred politician of masters class, visit Lagos Bourdillon, there you’ll find one.”
But reacting to the claim through his Special Assistant on Media, Kehinde Akinyemi, the former president described the viral video as fake and not from him.
He declared he never made any remark at the expense of his noble military profession.
Obasanjo said, “Only the military trains personnel to be good managers of men and materials. So, I cannot disparage my noble profession for politics that has no formal training. This is false and fake.”
