OBASANJO/JONATHAN LETTERS

GOODLUCK JONATHAN RESPONSE TO OBASANJO'S LETTER.

The president of Nigeria from the tone of his response letter and his attitude after his letter has shown that he took offense because of the Obasanjo letter. Because on Christmas Day in the Church he still referred to it by making  side talks after kneeling at the Church alter on National TV. 

     I know that one of the message of the commemoration of the birth of Christ is forgiveness and thereby looking forwarding to the future  with hope but this appears not appear to be the feelings of Mr. President on Christmas.

   The handlers of the Commander - in - Chief  should help him to act as President in Office not one acted on the President. To me President Jonathan is the luckiest president who has a predecessor to counsel him in our history. He is lucky that Obasanjo was frank  in his letter to him. In my opinion Obasanjo letter is a Christmas gift that should have served as a compass for Mr. President. So good that Mr. President even tried to remind Obasanjo of his short falls as president. To me this means that Obasanjo does not want Mr. President to make the same mistake like him.

    There has being this response to the effect that this is a case of 'the kettle calling the pot black'. What I want to ask, is it wrong for Obasanjo to repent assuming he was wrong in some areas as president? Are politicians envious that Obasanjo has told the truth?

    Thank you Chief Obasanjo, and take solace in the words of a one time president of America, Roosevelt, that " patriotism means to stand by the country, not to stand by the president or the government".

    It is also true that this country belong to all of us, but some of us are privileged to have more experience than others and what they know is not known by millions of Nigerians so when they ask questions because of their privileged position they tend to speak for greater majority of the people.
