Atiku finally exposes Obasanjo's corruption by Elombah Perspective

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar in a forthcoming book entitled 'Atiku Media Office: The Wars, The Victories', alleges that former President Olusegun Obasanjo heavily enriched himself as Nigeria's President between 1999 to 2007. Atiku who was Obasanjo's deputy until the two fell out made a mockery of the much touted anti-corruption crusade of his erstwhile boss, Obasanjo.
The book, excerpts of which was reproduced below, lampooned Obasanjo and his anti-graft war and said: "It is, however, ironic that the same EFCC (Economic and Financial Crimes Commission), whose only allegation against Atiku Abubakar is authorisation of placement of deposits in interest-yielding bank accounts, failed to see anything wrong or even curious is a situation where Obasanjo who in 1999 had less than N20,000 in his bank account managed to acquire several highly mechanised multi-million naira farms in all the six geo-political zones of the country; Obasanjo palm oil farms in Calabar; his farm at Oke-Ogun area of Oyo State, the biggest of its kind in Africa; big fish farms in Lanlate and Ota; a big poultry farm in Ibogun and oil palm and estate at Ehuuagie, Rivers State.
"As if that was not enough, Obasanjo's investments allegedly stretch across all sectors of the economy with such ventures as the multi-million naira Temperance Hotel, Ota; the Bells Secondary School and University; Transcorp, which owns the Abuja Hilton, NITEL, oil blocks; steel company, as well as a speculated interest in the Aluminium Smelter Company of Nigeria (ALSCON) in Ikot-Abasi, which was allegedly sold to foreign interests allegedly at a price believed to be far below its actual value."
However, Atiku claimed in the book that "it was clear that the President did not want a strong Vice President or one with a mind of his own."
Really? And yet Atiku was given so much power to control the party, the governors and key sectors of the economy?
Atiku also claimed that he brought people like Soludo, Okonjo Iwealla, El-rufai and Ribadu into the government, but now wants us to believe that he was allowed to do all these by a "petty, impulsive and dictatorial" president?
I am also surprised that the famed "considerable weight", which Atiku deployed to get Obasanjo re-elected could not be deployed by Atiku to get himself elected after three attempts to become president! Let's also not forget that the pack of "15 PDP governors solidly behind Atiku" were all crooks led by the likes of James Onanefe Ibori, Lucky Igbinedion, Diepriye Alamesiegha, Orji Uzor Kalu etc. etc. So why would such characters not prefer an Atiku presidency?
I am also surprised by Atiku's admission that although the president "released a statement to the public that Atiku would run for re-election with him, Atiku felt he could no longer trust his boss". So why did he remain on the ticket? Power without principles?
Now, Atiku claims that he had to be "sent on a hastily arranged errand outside the country" before Ogbeh could be removed as PDP chairman. So where was he sent to when Gemade and Solomon Lar were removed? I could go on and on to do a review on the book but I can only sum up by saying that I am severely disappointed with Atiku's media team who, in spite of their famed invincibility, cannot produce a coherent argument in trying to rehabilitate their boss.
