"THE 4 REASONS WHY OLUSEGUN OBASANJO WROTE A LETTER TO JONATHAN GOODLUCK OF NIGERIA"

(I). Olusegun Obasanjo considered himself as the anointed kingmaker of Nigeria who should determine the rightful occupant of the Nigerian presidency and never the Nigerian electorates. He did it in 1979 successfully when he handed over to Alhaji Shehu Shagari despite the controversial 12 and 2/3 states electoral issue. Olusegun Obasanjo did it again in 2007 when he gave us the sickly Musa YarA'dua because his 3rd term hidden tenure elongation political agenda failed. Olusegun Obasanjo also gave us Jonathan Goodluck indirectly when he made him the Vice-Presidential candidate to Musa YarA'dua in 2007.

(ii). Olusegun Obasanjo did not want to bite the political fingers that fed him into power in 1999 through the unwritten gentlemen agreement of the founding fathers of the PDP that supported rotational presidency between the north and the south. Olusegun Obasanjo won the 1999 and 2003 presidential elections with the massive support of the north The unexpected presidency of Jonathan Goodluck as a result of the sudden death of Musa YarA'dua broke this political order in the PDP. Olusegun Obasanjo's main goal is to return that power to the north through Sule Lamido, the present governor of Jigawa Stae. Olusegun Obasanjo once publicly claimed few months ago that Sule Lamido is the best state governor in Nigeria and the best presidential material for Nigeria.

(iii). The personal political ambition of Jonathan Goodluck to seek a second term due to the political pressure from his Ijaw's beneficiaries and by all means possible which recently resulted in the PDP's internal crisis, the formation of the nPDP and the G-7 PDP rebel governors association respectively have made it practically and politically impossible for Olusegun Obasanjo to have his way in 2015 through the present PDP political structure that Jonathan Goodluck controls firmly. The recent movement of the G-5 PDP rebel governors into the opposition APC and the arrest of Sule Lamido's two sons for allegations of massive official corruption further dealt a huge political blow to the political plan of Olusegun Obasanjo in 2015.

(iv). President Jonathan Goodluck's political camp has finally identified Sule Lamido as the biggest political threat to the political ambition of their master which they are determined to destroy before 2015. (v). Olusegun Obasanjo's political power as the PDP's king maker is now completely cut off with the domination of the remaining PDP machinery by Jonathan Goodluck's political men and women. The other political alternative by Olusegun Obasanjo to use the APC as a replacement political platform for picking our President in 2015 faces the combined political forces of Bola Tinubu and General Muhammadu Buhari which prove politically insurmountable for Olusegun Obasanjo thereby leaving him without any viable political base that has now forced him to write his letter as a man that is politically drowning but decided to hold firmly to a a single floating straw for his own political survival at the end of the day.
