Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said that he would never be a partisan politician.
OBJ, as fondly called, however said he would continue to contribute his quota to nation-building.
“Everybody is welcome but they must be with good leadership traits, and genuine intention to improve the country,” he said.
“We
should understand first that, not the party makes the person, but the
person makes the party. It is who you are that you bring into the party.
Though, for now I remain a ‘partyless’ Nigerian, but, I will continue
to welcome any Nigerian with good leadership qualities.
“It
does not matter which party you are, either, PDP, APC, Labour, APGA any
party at all, as long as you a are committed, sincere and a purposeful
leader, I am ready for you.
“And that is what our brother is doing. I pray that this country will never be short of this type of people,” Obasanjo said.
Wada said he was at the residence to pay homage to the former president.
“Since
we were honored as the best governor yesterday in Lagos, we deemed it
appropriate to come down to Abeokuta to report to our father the little
recognition we got”.
