If
you are a Nigerian and you still believe that the battle of 2015 is yet to
commence, then you must be sitting on a very long thing. But seriously, the race
has commenced and it seems it will be a fight to finish. Confirming that
Jonathan is now ready to battle Obasanjo, a credible source in Abuja said:
“Mr. President is aware of Chief Obasanjo’s previous
antecedents. Look at his close relationship with the arrowheads of the rebellion
in the PDP. He is the one who made Sule Lamido, Aliyu Babangida of Niger and
Wammako of Sokoto. It’s the same thing with Nyako in Adamawa
State."
The source who is close President Goodluck
Jonathan told Sahara Reporters that he has commissioned a group of political
pundits to begin to counteract former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s secret plans
to work for the emergence of a Northerner as president in 2015.
The
source added that the Jonathan’s team is charged with strategizing on the best
maneuvers to contain all and every move by Obasanjo henceforth, until
2015.
The source added that Jonathan do not have a full understanding of
where Obasanjo stands in the crisis tearing the PDP apart but added that the
president has decided not to take chances.
The Northern members of the
team set up by the president have been mandated to lead the first stage of Mr.
Jonathan’s campaigns and consultations across the entire Northern
states.
“Some of the president’s pundits have swung into action in the
‘core’ Northern states of Sokoto, Kano, Jigawa, Zamfara, Kebbi, Katsina and
northern Kaduna,” the source confirmed.
The source added that a key
strategy of Jonathan’s group is to seek the support of top Islamic and Christian
clerics in the North. The well-funded presidential group is offering millions of
naira to selected clerics in return for their political sympathy for Jonathan’s
reelection in 2015.
Obasanjo is obviously not happy with Jonathan's style
but is the president ready to fight dirty with his
Oga?
