SHOCKER: I won't support you, Obasanjo to Jonathan

The end blow is finally here Jonathan is at the mercy of his fate .
President Jonathan’s mission for visiting
Obasanjo’s
residence on Monday didn’t succeed after he
allegedly
engaged the former military ruler in an intense
war of
words.
According to a source at the meeting who
requested
anonymity because he’s not permitted to leak
the content of
the discussion to the media, about an hour into
the meeting,
Jonathan practically begged to have Baba
Obasanjo on
board but in a bid to end the meeting abruptly,
Obasanjo told
Jonathan with a strong voice that “It’s too late
to support
you; I’m very sorry”
The source said the presence of two popular
clerics,
Oyedepo of Winners Chapel and Adeboye of
Redeemed
Church didn’t convince Obasanjo to change his
words. He
insisted he’s not willing to support a system of
leadership
that has failed Nigeria and wanted to wash his
hands clean
by not openly endorsing any candidate.
Few minutes after Obasanjo insisted on not
supporting
Obasanjo, Jonathan reportedly mumbled a few
words that
the source termed “weighty”.
GEJ was quoted to have said “elder statesman
who talk like
motor park touts”. He, however, did not mention
Obasanjo
directly but he said it after OBJ insisted on not
supporting
him.
The statement was said to have angered
Obasanjo, forcing
him to cut off the meeting abruptly after which
Jonathan
and his men sneaked out of the building.
The source concluded that neither Oyedepo nor
Adeboye
tried to convince Obasanjo, they just sat there as
witnesses
invited by Obasanjo.
The former president has been a virulent critic of
the Jonathan
administration, which he accused of embracing
corruption and
burgling the anti-insurgency battle.
This made me remember NTA advert on Jonathan's campaign that normally ends with this punchline "We who are with you are so many more, than those against you"
February 14 will tell.
