I Appointed Igbo As Central Bank Governor, Finance Minister And They Didn’t Ruin Nigerian Economy – Former President, ObasanjoObasanjo stated this at an event in Anambra State to commemorate Governor Chukwuma Soludo's one-year tenure, condemning the"persistent" aversion to people of southeastern descent, which he referred to as Igbophobia.
The former president stated that Soludo, who worked closely with him as an economic adviser, “never misadvised me”, and the economist’s performance impressed him so much so that he was asked to lead the apex bank. He said, “Somebody came to me and said, ‘Wow. You have ruined the economy of Nigeria.’ I said, ‘How?’ He said, ‘An Igbo woman, Minister of Finance; an Igbo man, Governor of the Central Bank? Then you have clearly completed the task of ruining the economy of Nigeria.’
Certainly
They don't want Nigeria to develop and their own country called Biafra fools
Very unbiased man
After giving up our land to Cameroon, Obj is now pretending to be the godfather of Ndi Igbo. Ndi Igbo be wise. All that glitters is no gold

This are the peoples you committed genocide against in the name of forcing Nigeria on them, what about their parents you killed. Olusegun Obasanjo and his men's should apologies to the Biafrans with immediate effect as they are still alive before is too late.

Sterling bank refund my money Sterling_Bankng

Unlike the Fulani man call Emiefele
BOGbadams Sahara, say it the way it was daid? Obj daid that wad the bed appointment he ever made, hate for ignos no go kill you
OBJ ruined it himself with unprecedented looting.
Dr. Okonjo Iweala is from Delta State, not Igbo.
Lol, didirin, who is currently there as the CBN governor? Youruba go cancel this one and he would wished he never became silly. Yoruba don't forget, though we forgive..
Buhari appointed a Fulani man called Emiefele who successfully ruined the economy.
Baba is remembering his 'home base' now that he has started receiving unpleasant remarks and started creating new families in Iboland. Nice Baba, but don't rock the boat more than necessary sir.
ZenithBank please I made a transaction for over 24hrs and it hasn't gone through. Kindly reply this tweet as it is urgent
ndlea_nigeria You people's recruitment portal is not opening (accessible) what is Happening please?
FirstBankngr my money that was debited on 24th of last month hasn't been reversed Why
Most folk don’t care where leaders come from. The most important thing is competence. Look what 8 years of Buhari has done to Nigeria . Don’t understand why some folk , don’t get it.
But you headed a military campaign that killed over three millions of Igbo.. civilians and children inclusive. Sir, stop pretending as if you love the Igbos any better.
Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo is a hypocrite.
UBACares I withdrew some money from my Payoneer account to my bank account and it's more than 3 weeks now I've not seen the money, what's the issue, abi Una node receive money from any online platform?

UBACares UBAGroup UBAGroup why is taking you guys so long to give my money back
They didn't, you did
Bcos your real papa was an Obi of Anambra so you're also an IGBO. Don't forget the real owner of Otta farm and how you manipulated it as well as the Library. 😀😀
Even the late Dora Akunyili was under OBJ's regime
That’s your choice
Yet some of the south westerners will never see truth in this great piece. They'd even tag OlusegunObasnjo an igbo man.... They hate Truth
Pe Wallahi!🤣🤣🤣 I thought Godwin Emefiele is a Yoruba political rascal ni o😜😜😜
UBA is becoming a nightmare to me,their consistent withholding of transacted funds is getting me fed up,please, UBA management need to step up their games o,so to say,my money was deducted from my account and it did not get to the recipient since a day before yesterday.
hope Emefiele is a Yòrùbá man?
Another Igbo man ruined this economy! 🤦🏽 And he was appointed by your anointed President GEJ.
Baba believes so much in igbo...
Igbos cannot steal and bury inside house, that's the wicked thing an embezzler can do, use the money nd build factory in your village nah, at least you can employ people
Emefiele na Fulani man na🤣🤣🤣🤣
Emefiele na Yoruba? It's not them but this whole buhari administration of northerners in power ruined all no check and balance as they are okay since it favours them
Thank u
From 1999 to date we haven't gotten a leader that will take to another level with the excess natural resources in every nook and cranny of this country,
Make this man get out. He's lost his relevance and trying so hard to have it back. So obvious The most controversial politician Nigeria has ever produced
GhostOfEcstasy Shut up sir what happened to madueke minister for petroleum even abacha no loot reach that woman… you don cast sir your papa na Igbo so no excuse the first Yoruba president we are having is BOLA ASIWAJU AHMED TINUBU…
Who are you?
This delta man don drain our country and e no funny 😮💨

This is not about Igbo or Yoruba, it's about how well do we love ourselves to help each other arise into greatness that is destined to us, Helping each other promotes the best in us, help the Elect President inorder to become a better President and do not give room to display
OPayNigeria please refund my money. I did a transfer u debited me and didn't credit the recipient.
Appreciate the effort but it is not about the economy. It is just basic hatred.
You paid your dues on inclusive governance your Excellency
Buhari killed this country with his useless tribalism and nepotism policy.
While Buhari appointed Fulani man from Mali as Central Bank governor (Emefiele) and ruined the economy.
Awwwww! Baba Obasanjo! Baba Obasanjo!! Baba Obasanjo!!! Baba Obasanjo!!!! Baba Obasanjo!!!!! Oolusegun_obj Baba ooo! 🙌🙌🙌🙌 Baba l'eje o🙌 Thurgery and insurgence leaders cannot make this statement because they're filled with lies.
Absolutely true. Buhari's government full of northern appointees have ruined the country

Baba Obasanjo rest O ...Blood is thicker than water so they say ...They are your family members history told us that the late Obi of Onitsha who died in 1972 was your Biological father ...
Meanwhile, Buhari appointed a Fulani man who virtually ruined the economy and dragged Nigeria into the bottomless pit with one nonsense cashless policy.
UBACares please refund my money

CollinsOshor They should go and verify
Omo this man no fine ooo
Means what? He loves other tribe more than any president? He is better than any president that is or will be? Baba...it is time to rest.
Yes yes yes
And when it was time to succeed Yaradua he went South South instead of South East, the Igbos are not good enough for the presidency main dish but the crumbs.
God bless NOIweala
They are experts in their field
OBJ is not the best thing that happened to Nigeria, OBJ wiped a complete community in Odi Bayelsa State. Oh u have forgotten? But Yeradua come and solve the problem without killing innocent people. OBJ is agent of colonial Masters, he serve them to our detriment till date.
He then supported a northern man for presidency
No wonder operation feed the nation was privatised by U. Na we be our own problem, in d quest of being self-righteous, we keep making the same mistake over n over again. Not every colleague is ur friend, maintain a standard relationship n leave it at that
This is The only man who can tell us how dangerous and greedy this man is….but many people thinks he’s the messiah of the country anyway wetin me i know?
All of you are under this tweet crying that Emefiele is Igbo but you fail to understand that OBJ didn’t appoint him as CBN governor. Y’all don’t even read to understand but read to criticize and at the end of the day making a fool and mockery of yourselves.
Hahaha Nigeria is not property, allow to chose the best for the country.
Y'all will accept anything and say anything as long as they say sh!t u wantu hear ......it's never not funny 🤣🤣
This man shud rest na😂😂......it's the comments for me😅😭
Ayyah so u mean now emefiele hav disappointed U..
A man with wisdom. Buhari don appoint his fellow Muslims and northerners brothers and relations, and the end of 8years what happened to a country
Obasanjo is never a Yoruba man. His father is from Anambra his mother only gave him tribal mark because she doesn't want to lose her child to Igbo. Oolusegun_obj is never and can never be a Yoruba
You have no shame Sir
Obasanjo is still one of the best things that happened to this Country
Emefele is Igbo sir, hw is the economy
Instead you did
You have also forgotten NAFDAC DG and FRSC, even Aviation minister with her baggages seems like a star today. They were all STARS!
Amplified
UBACares please refund my money. I did a transfer u debited me and didn't credit the recipient.
Elemele na fulani abi?..

Keystonebankng pls refund my N50,000. You debited me since 9th March. I came to your branch in Uyo on 3 occasions, no positive response.
MR SELF ACCLAIMED LEADER ! Always about himself alone. Live And Let Live .
Baba, go and sleep somewhere
Lori iro
So the current one is Egun abi and he has improved the economy. Yeye man.
Emefiele and his yoruba/nupe origin is currently ruining the country with daft policies quarter by quarter.
The cbn governor now is from Kano.🤣
Why is this man trying so hard for attention ?
How many ibo Senate president did you remove technically and why do you do so.
Is that the end jusfies now the Nigerian Economy is ruined
But what were paid Nigerians in return?
Shame on You. With all million you wasted in Electricity / Energy with China. You are suppose to be in Jail now if Nigeria is a lawful Nation. Yiu and your vice corrupt leaders
But one of them was telling you to your face right there in the same hall that your tribe are political rascals despite all of the appointments you made and you didn't find offensive or defend your tribe. You are incredible.🤦♂️
Baba go and sit down ur candidate ti lule
OBJ is a patriot no doubt, but he messed up the day he tore up his PDP membership card, wrote the infamous letter about GEJ’s fake ‘1000snipers’. That action and many other factors set the motion for enthronement of this APC tragedy that befell Nigeria in 2015.
We know.. nah where u put naija economy we dey now.. how the road to your mama village be?
Baba go face ur farm
Excellent speech
_BeenUmar power had to go to the North. Those who you mentioned are from South
Ogun state is still underdeveloped
Useless old man..
So?
Remind them
All of you asking if Emefelie is not an Igbo man, my question to you is was he appointed by OBJ? Do you read to understand or to react? OBJ said he appointed, so who appointed Emefelie? Reason why most of you fail exams. Awan olodo oshi
You appointed your family from your biological father side. Baba weyray
Now igbo's are Fucked for real, Obasanjo is transferring all his bad luck to them, They think is love.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What most people don't know...this is the man still.hokding Nigeria. Together...the rest of dem a bigot...and ethnic champions...i pray for God to keep him.longer..
Ebora Owu
Lol Baba don dey chase clout small small.
A mass murderer
FBN_help FirstBankngr why am I finding it difficult to increase my transfer limit, your app cants generate token required for the increase? And you're not replying my massage?
OBJ is detribalised. He hired the best hand for the job. That can't be said of Buhari who thought that governance should be a family affairs thing or religious or ethnic thing. Illiteracy and ignorance destroyed APC government.
Obasanjo inherited an empty treasury and huge debts. Unlike some we know, he didn't waste time blaming Abdulsalami Abubakar. He went to work. With Ngọzi Okonjo-Iweala as finance mister, debts were written off by Paris club and the economy started looking up again. Haters many
Baba you are solidly the Father of all. The New Nigeria is very possible. Thank you
You will forever have my respect even in the grave .
Tell them Baba.
Emefiele is from Iragbiji,Osun State.
Simply the truth
Is Jonathan an ibo man?
Good talk Baba...ride on sir
But you ruin Nigeria yourself MR ex president
That's why he appointed them, he knew they can help steal without trace....that's why 16 billion dollars meant for electricity disappeared without trace. We get your point...
But you ruined Nigeria!
I know few companies here in lagos that it is igbo people working their, because of their KNOW CHARACTER OF CONSPIRACY make the companies fold up.
No be one of them they want remove from his GOVERNORSHIP POSITION? Saying he is a DISASTER..so who is lying - OBASANJO or ANAMBRA PEOPLE 🤣🤣🤣
This man is too old and he’s saying rubbish
Do you know what it means to convert all your business money to £20 to rise up from the war and still control the commerce of a nation. They know their gang up agains Obi. Obi won his election bc they are afraid to let Igbos open their ports and dump Lagos that was this rigging.
Listen to Emefiele below
Who else ruined Nigerian economy? Emifiele is responsible for destroying country's economy. One day he will see just, proper reward for all he has done.
You will live long OBJ
BABA WAKE UP! WAKE UP!!
But u failed woefully
But you ruin Nigeria
Please patronise me🙏 women heels for just 7k
myaccessbank I was debited for a failed transaction yesterday. Please refund my money
Buchi Mat'nati, Oghior via YouTube

If na Hausa or Yoruba dem go thief money finish
Where is the current CBN gov from again? Lol 😂
Omo nna
That is to say, if Igbo was elected the president of the country, the country shall be better for it.. seconded
Who cares?
Agbado supporters 3 2 1 go
Baba kosi oro lenu yi.
That's why tinubu appointed an Igbo man from Anambra Ben Akabueze as his finance, budget and planning commissioner to save his government when Obasanjo withheld Lagos allocation.
Obasanjo RN
oma_melar So giving them president won't either.
For those not understanding, OBJ is implying that Igbos are fit enough and love the country enough to not ruin it.
Why did you not reappoint him for a second term?
Baba sha dey find relevant.
Dady the love you have for us is endless we love you too
Why didn't you handover to an Igbo man? Where is your love?
You are a man of integrity,may our God give you long life and healthiness through Jesus Christ our Lord,amen🙏🏿
Emefiele is from ogun state? Baba e lo sun jharee
Fact
Sir with all due respect. try to dey cut the hair wey full your nose
myaccessbank please you guys should reverse back my money,you debited me without recharging the number i want to recharged,please reverse the money now
😆😂 But wasn't that the time $16bn power funds disappeared and no roads, bridges, railways were built? Hey, about the 2nd Niger Bridge?
Emefiele nko
Emefiele is never a bad CBN governor but just like everything about Buhari, he became so terrible 😔
You're only a political rascal sir
Something is wrong with this Man
I tot his form adeokuta
The most confused ex president in the world obj
Why didn't they open all the sea ports in the south East and South South with his Igbo appointees. One good dead does not justify a lifetime of wickedness.
Igbos have natural inclination to successful finance management, no tribe rivals that
We know you obj, we know your origin. It is still paining you that BAT will be a President from the west. Agbaya
Tell them
