Obasanjo's recent anticedent may not portray him in good light considering his position in our dear Nigeria, but they should have known better that BABA is becoming a child as expected of old age, we must not judge Obasanjo now by his actions and inactions, i also blame the press for not considering this natural fact before airing whatever he does or says, God bless Nigeria.
