Olusegun Obasanjo who is the former President of Nigeria has finally come out to openly reveal that Nigeria will certainly be consumed if the Nigerian citizens would make the wrong choice in the 2023 general elections.
President Obasanjo had also openly expressed some hopes that if the right choice of leadership would be made in 2023, Nigeria as a country might be able to witness progress.

He had made this statement while he had spoken as the special guest of honour at the Wilson Badejo Foundation’s 15th annual lecture, with the theme, ‘Overcoming the twin challenges of poverty and insecurity in Nigeria’, held in Lagos on Wednesday.
Obasanjo said, “It is either we make the right choice in 2023, because if we make the right choice, we will get there.
“However, if we don’t make the right choice in 2023, things will consume us, and we pray against that one. We must make the right choice in 2023.
“Nigeria isn’t where it is supposed to be today. If anyone says it’s ok where we’re at the moment, then the person’s head needs to be examined.
“My friend, the late Ahmed Joda, used to tell me that God has given us everything a nation needs and there is no need for prayers because if God has given you everything and you squandered it, then something is wrong.
“I told him that even at that, we still need prayers as a nation.”
In another report, Olusegun Obasanjo has appealed to Nigerians not to make the right choice during the 2023 general elections warning that the country will not survive another bad leader.
He raised the alarm that another bad choice in the forthcoming election may consume the nation and push it to chaos.
Obasanjo made this call while speaking as the special guest of honour at the Wilson Badejo Foundation’s 15th annual lecture which had the theme, ‘Overcoming the twin challenge of poverty and insecurity in Nigeria’ held in Lagos on Wednesday.
The former President expressed optimism that if the proper decision were taken in 2023, the country may experience advancement.
