On if former President Obasanjo scuttled the best chance he ever had to lead this country as president?

I don’t think so. How? When?

On Obasanjo scuttling his political career

On contesting for president again

It is quite too early for such a question. We are in a transition process. We have not even formed the next government. You are asking me whether I will like to run again or not. I think it is just too early. My concern is to make sure that the transition process is smooth and complete and a new government is formed because it is the party that I belong to that is coming in. My dream for Nigeria is always that we can, from time to time, change government so that there can be competition among parties and that competition will bring about, perhaps more development and progress in the country. I think that is my mostimportant concern now rather than thinking of whether I’m going to run again or not.

On meeting President Goodluck Jonathan before the general elections
