Apparently angered by the
content of a purported letter written to him by his daughter, Iyabo, former
President Olusegun Obasanjo, yesterday rained thunder and brimstone on Vanguard
Newspaper over the missive.
The media was awash
yesterday, with a purported letter written by Iyabo Obasanjo to her father,
accusing him of being responsible for the nation’s many troubles.
Iyabo in the letter obtained
by Vanguard, also accused the Otta farmer of abandoning his family.
“You think our existence on
earth is about you. By the way, how many are we? 19, 20, 21? Do you even know?
In the last five years, how many of these children have you spoken to? How many
grandchildren do you have and when did you last see each of them? As President
you would listen to advice of people that never finished high school who would
say anything to keep having access to you so as to make money over your
children who loved you and genuinely wished you well,” Iyabo allegedly wrote
her father in the said letter.
However, when Vanguard
contacted Obsasanjo to hear his own side of the story, a visibly enraged
politician-turned-pastor, insulted them for calling him after publishing the
story.
The exchange between
Vanguard and the former president ran thus:
Vanguard:
Sir, we tried reaching you all through yesterday, to no avail, over the letter
written by your daughter, Iyabo, to you.
Chief
Obasanjo: You are a bloody idiot, you have published the paper
and you are now looking for me, you are an idiot, don’t call me again. When
Iyabo finishes you in court…. (hangs up).
