Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Friday said he once refused to use government’s fund to complete a Christian Association of Nigeria building in Abuja.

Obasanjo, 84, was Nigeria’s president between May 1999 and May 2007. He was also a military head of state from February 1976 to October 1979. At the programme, he reminisced how “pressure” was mounted on him in 1999 to contest as president after he was released from prison.

😂🤣🤣Obj, CHRISTAIN Man..... 🏃‍♂️'Pls sir, use ur Christianity status to evangelize to the world of God's acceptance of all into his kingdom, only if we can S. U. R. R. E. N. D. E. R!. 🏃‍♂️Ire o!!!

Baba return all the money wey you steal joor☺️🤓... You don become saint ba?.

But your fulani brother's wild more stupid mosque with government fundz

But you bribed senators with 50m naira each for third term?

AREMU OLUSEGUN OBASANJO is never a religion bigot or a narrow minded ethnic expansionist like this BUBU! That was why OBASANJO was able to assemble the best of the best star-studded Nigerians from across the country into his government.

Baba leave them, the precedent has been set. Nepotism will be skewed in favour of Christian soon

I disagree with you sir. You can't compare the cost to the blood of innocent souls that is being shed on daily basis including those coming home from abroad and the govt is doing little or nothing to address insecurity esp. when some tribes are involved. Enough is enough!

CAN should never build with govt fund. It's a self-defeating strategy. You can't hold accountable the person feeding you.

And you still want us to stay as one whole this government still uses tax papers money to fund terrorism

kingskiid But u can steal the Money into ur pocket abi? Ndi Ara leelee

That is the rational thing to do. Public funds shouldn't be for religious escapades. Infrastructure, Nation-building and more beneficial stuff. Health, Education.

But you looted public funds for personal use.

A time will come when evil forces will propagate against Muslims & Islam, portraying an incorrect image to the world. Many innocent Muslims will perish due to this, and world peace will be destroyed. Qasim’s dream from 2013. More at

But mosque is being built by agric funds.

Datz how it shld b,how will u b financing ur religion with govt money just like d way bubu is doing now in Nigeria.

You are the best we have ever had, and Buhari is the worst

There's no sense in it. Why would Government be financing trips to Pilgrimage. Ko make sense now, habaaa. Same way they wanna finance people's cow business, Government money woleee gan ooo

But the National Mosque was financed by Abacha, a Muslim. They don’t care about your political correctness, you southerners/Christians. Wake up.
