Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Tuesday said the verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal which upheld the election of President Umaru Yar’Adua had vindicated his administration’s insistence that the 2007 poll was credible.Obasanjo told the News Agency of Nigeria in a telephone interview that “the election was properly conducted.’’
Obasanjo added that the decision of the tribunal was “a vindication of the fact that my administration conducted the election to the best of our ability’’.The former president reiterated the fact that no election anywhere in the world was perfect, saying Nigeria’s could not be different.He congratulated Yar’Adua and Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan on their victory at the tribunal.

what a vindication! i pity this country, well we shall get there one day,yes the past administration has done its "best" as regard the election,i just want us all to remember that if this is the kind of leaders we still choose to lead us, then! NO NATION CAN RISE ABOVE THE QUALITY OF ITS LEADERSHIP!!!!!

INEC has just come out and said thesame thing. INEC has come out to say that the tribunal verdict vindicated them. Why don't they just give Iwu and OBJ national award and let us get this insult over with quickly afterall that is what a lot of Nigerians seem to want, right?

OBJ i can understand and i sincerely feel for you.
The cry and joy being vindicated is only known those who have been there.
The last general elections was widely believed to be fraudulent.
Inec was a culprit in making the elction a failure. but thanks to the electoral tribunal who has come out to say there is no evidence to show .
Obj can now afford to sleep because is baby project in handing yar'adua was not anulled.
I understand obj's point of being vindicated.
Up obj

As for OBJ. He just does not get it, that Nigeria is not all about him, and never was about him.  What a self-centered SOB! Please he is history now and he has to adjust accordingly, just as we are trying to put him behind us like a bad dream.  I would like to concentrate on current affairs.

Na you talk am!  


NO NATION CAN RISE ABOVE THE QUALITY OF ITS LEADERSHIP!!!!!

This appears to be the curse now.  All we have to do is break it.  The problem is how?

Some groups in the country are now apparently calling for the removal of Iwu and all commissioners in INEC due to their inability to re-run credible elections. I am getting confused, i thought the tribunal said INEC did a fantastic job and a lot of people agreed with the ruling, so why are people now disturbing INEC. Can't people just make up their mind and stick to it? LOL

What do you expect from such a man like Obasanjo, who wanted to consolidate evil he has been perpetrating. May the Almighty God help us all in this country and I believe very soon the good Lord will finally shut his mouth for us.

he is correct but one thing is sure, he can never be lucky all the time.
he still has Gbenga on his neck.
it is good that most tribunals in most states saw evidences and had reasons to anull the elections but have failed at the presidential election.
the prayers will continue and let the lucky ones continue until when they will be lucky no more

OBJ i seeking attention, news papers should stop writing about him, we should all alow him to fade into oblivion.

OBJ m with you.
quotes from BABA:
those who did not see what i did re blind ND those who did not hear what i did re deaf.
GO! OBJ,
GOD BLESS NIGERIA!

OBJ looking for the best possible creditation he can get to redem his batered image.doesnt know that silence speaks better in such conditions.am sure if nepa doesnt take light for a day he come out to give a press conference

But wait people,  Obasanjo is correct. He was vindicated by the verdict. I mean even though so many election results have been annulled, the verdict does vindicate him.
