Human rights Lawyer, Femi Falana has reacted to ex-president, Olusegun Obasanjo's lengthy letter to President Buhari on Tuesday.

Obasanjo, in a 13-page statement, criticized Buhari and urged him to bury any plans of recontesting in 2019. Falana believes that the letter is a Clarion Call to the president, advising him to act promptly against the influence of the Cabal. He pointed out;

"President Olusegun Obasanjo’s intervention is a vivid expression of the frustration of the Nigerian people with the Buhari istration.

The statement is a clarion call on President Buhari to remove the incompetent and corrupt cabal of power mongers that has hijacked political power from him. Through sheer nepotism and cronyism, the regime has lost the massive goodwill that heralded it to power.

The success recorded in the fight against insurgency in the northeast zone has been eroded in the wave of kidnapping and reckless killing of unarmed Nigerians by AK47-bearing herdsmen.The success of the fight against corruption and impunity has been rubbished by the inability of the regime to remove corrupt public officers.

President Obasanjo’s challenge has been taken up by many Nigerians who have already formed a coalition of genuine progressive forces to liberate Nigeria from internal colonialism and imperialist control."

Human right groups that has been so silence since 2015 will have a voice now that Obasanjo has destroyed the fear factor.

Me I don't see any point here, abi wetin Falana dey talk

But the man get ear desease... So how will he listen and hear at the same time.

Buhari does not need to fight or deal with any cabal..
All Nigerians want is for buhari to vacate Aso rock come 2019.

If your expecting a wicked and heartless tyrant like buhari to change at his age, then you are finished.

Vote out buhari come 2019!

Era of letter have resurfaced, buhari if you love Apc do the needful and throw in the towel.I knew you are a failure and you have prove me right, since your campaign days I opened my dictionary and the name buhari means failure and I told Nigerians but they refused. Today it's clear to all even our mighty obj is convinced now. 2019 will come and there is nothing that will save failure buhari from going back to daura to take care of his cows. I want to tell my people if they will believe, buhari is a terrorist and soon the gullible ones will also believe. If Apc wants to retain power they must not present buhari to Nigerians in 2019.

l have read several comments on OBJ's letter to Buhari not to contest for second term. Many people even attacked OBJ's personality- He wants to be Nigeria's longest serving President; He criticizes every government in Nigeria;He is among our failed leaders; He is playing god; and so on. But my fellow countrymen, l have this question for all of us:
In the last three(3) years, did Buhari actually perform as Nigeria President?
Let us be honest to ourselves. Let us keep greed away. This is about the future of our unborn children/generations.
Even where you are surrounded by enemies, they will always take advantage of your flaws. lf they lie against you, the truth will always swallow their lies. Take a look at Obiano, a lot of lies were said against him but at the end, the truth prevailed over/swallowed all of them. God bless all of us.

When Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was ther prissydo, you all call him names and now that your nepa bill is enough to rule nigeria.

He's advising Buhari to correct his errors; but obviously, he not dissuading him from recontesting.

Whichever Buhari chooses to do, his fall/removal is imminent- and that's all that matters!

This man sef; see interpretation from a respected laywer, SAN for that matter. This is one of the problems of Nigeria, we either shift the goal post or interpret to suit/appease those in leadership/authority.

The letter is simple ''BROTHER BUHARI, PLEASE, DON'T CONTEST FOR SECOND TERM''. It is never a clarion call to change his ways.

.

letter of 13 pages ..as if he sent it to an erudite ..Buhari would use it to clean his butt

This man is always reacting to everything

waiting this one they talk now get meaning ni

Obansanjo don turn many Nigerians to

Chemical reactions.

Hmmm.. Who says OBJ is not relevant?

When that man sneezes, the entire Nigeria goes into a rumble.

And as for PMB, I will try to be objective, this NEPOTISM will be his undoing!

Ngenekwenu and Sarrki should be objective this time!

I had my time of for PMB, and as I speak I can say insecurity was reduced until the Fulani Herdsmen issue began.

The economy indices shows Nigeria is improving - Stocks Market, Investors Market, Capital Market, Foreign Reserves, Inflation and other economic indices - although it has not started to reflect in the standard of living of the common man.

PDP disgusts me as much as APC, but that report is very succinct!

Please do not expect PMB to fix the herdsmen issue, he is also a part of the Cattle Breeders Cabal - Miyetti Allah or whatever it is called.

Nigeria needs a fair leader.

#nomorerecyclingl i know is that PMB's kinsmen will be his undoing.

If you have not read or do not believe the Doyin OKupe report on the investigations done on the Fulani herdsmen during the PDP era, then you are BIASED!

Now everybody want to talk. Make una continue. Thank God for OBJ at lest, baba fears nobody

Obj is a pot calling the kettle black.
This is a man who couldn't give for the government properties he sold.
This is a man who spent billions of dollars to maintain local refineries which should have been used to build new ones.Yet,they didn't function up till now.
What about nepa to phcn?Where are the funds spent on it?Shior!
Both of them are "diputs".Reverse it

Stop posting rubbish.

The sad part about this is Falana still thinks Buhari is irredeemable ...No Sir Buhari is beyond redemption and he must go back home

I did not see the full write up but I think falz father should take it easy on him for not using his law degree at least doing what you love most and getting money is better than being a Slave to a job you don't find very attractive

'president obasanjo' hmm

Being stupid is a choice. But being stupid and moronîc is deliberate and unacceptable.

Buhari is not your problem. You're your own problem.
