The National Coordinator of Buhari Youth Organisation (BYO), Olujonwo Obasanjo, has said he could not compare President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration to that of his father, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo.
The younger Obasanjo said a comparison between both would be inaccurate as the administrations took place at different periods and under different situations.
However, he said that no one could fault Buhari’s integrity and honesty as a leader, adding that the president towered above his contemporaries.
The younger Obasanjo, who spoke with the media in Abuja on Wednesday, further noted that the Buhari administration supports youth development and prioritises infrastructural development.
He said, “Buhari believes in promoting Nigerian youths which is the basis of forming this association (BYO). This government has empowered the youths to go into farming and other entrepreneurship.
“This government is laying a good foundation for an expanded economic base and infrastructure development.”
He disclosed that contrary to widely-held belief, his support for Buhari has not impacted his relationship with his father.
“I’m here as an individual, adult, and someone who believes in this government. Politics can’t separate me and my father. We are still one loving family; our relationship is cordial
“Politics is meant to unite us. It is important we rise above ethnicity, religious bigotry, and primordial sentiments,” he stated.
