Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has explained that his decision to build a church was a fulfillment of his covenant with God while in prison in 1995. Obasanjo along with others were charged over a fathom coup during the administration of the late Sani Abacha and was subsequently imprisoned in Yola Prison. He regained freedom during the administration of General Abudulsalami Abubakar who granted him presidential pardon.

I wonder which GOD he make a covenant with! The only COVENANT between MAN and GOD is JESUS CHRIST his Son. OBJ you mean you make a Covenant with the Devil and this is the reason why you did the things you have done. God don't want anyone to have CHURCH did you read Jesus Christ telling His disciples to go and build churches? If only persons will know their God ooo then when lies spurt they can push it down. My advice to you is go and repent Nigeria is moving forward and not backward ooo.

Congratulations Chief Aremu Okikiola Obasanjo. You have lived a fulfilled life. May God in His Infinite Mercy continue to Guide, Guard and protect you as long as you may live. You have done well for this country. Your impact in Nigerian Economy will remain evergreen in the anals of Nigerian History and will be remembered by the old and the young and the generation yet unborn. You are the Father of Modern Nigeria.

Do not mind what other short sighted people say about you. Even Jesus Christ was not accepted in His Homeland. But God Almighty gave him victory over His enemies. You are a living legend. I say Congratulations once again.

make  una hear the prayer usman dey pray for one of the BADEST LEADER in nigeria, before that prayer can be accepted let OBJ first  meet with CHRIST JESUS in mind and in heart like ZACCHAEUS did  in book of luke, 19 vs 8 , said  BUT ZACCHAEUS STOOD UP AND SAID TO THE LORD, "LOOK , LORD! HERE AND NOW I GIVE HALF OF MY POSSESSIONS TO THE POOR, AND IF I HAVE CHEATED ANYBODY OUT OF ANYTHING, I WILL PAY BACK FOUR TIMES THE AMOUNT,"
