Atiku and Obasanjo
The African Democratic Congress presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has explained how he claimed to have saved former President Olusegun Obasanjo from an alleged deadly injection while they were in prison.
Atiku said he leaked information about the planned injection and warned Obasanjo not to allow it to be administered.
Speaking with newsmen in an interview, the former vice-president said a similar plan was carried out against the late General Shehu Musa Yar’Adua
“I saved Obasanjo’s life in prison by leaking information about an impending injection that could have killed him.
“They did the same to Yar’Adua, and when I learnt they planned to do it to him, I warned him not to allow the injection.
“Today, he wants the world to hate me because I opposed his third-term ambition,” Atiku said. (Nigerian Tribune)
