Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo may dump politics for evangelism soon.
We gathered that the ex-president has joined other clerics in organising nationwide crusades.
The
reason, was learnt may be connected to the fact that President Jonathan
could not allow him dictate how he wanted Nigeria to be governed.
In protest, Obasanjo was said to have dumped politics for evangelism, having been trained at the National Open University.
He
was said to have joined forces with a royal father from his home town,
Oba Adedapo Tejuoso, Karounwi III, and the world-renowned evangelist,
Kayode Williams whose ministry is Bishop Kayode Williams World Outreach,
to hold crusades nationwide.
Sources
disclosed that Obasanjo, Oba Tejuoso and Kayode Williams, an ex armed
robber who repented while in the Sokoto prison, have begun a five-day
crusade in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, yesterday.
Confirming
the Obasanjo's new status, a cleric who is also an indigene of
Ogbomoso, Pastor Kayode Alabi, said, “Yes, it is true that former
President, Obasanjo, Oba Adedapo Tejuoso and Bishop Kayode Williams are
coming on a visit to Ogbomoso for a five-day crusade beginning from
today (yesterday).
The
whole city is excited and very interested about the programme tagged
‘‘Healing Ogbomoso Land Gospel Crusade’’ holding at the Beulah Baptist
Convention Ground, Ogbomoso. The programme is being hosted by Ogbomoso
Christian Ministers’ Fellowship.”
According
to him, Obasanjo may have resolved to spend the remaining years of his
life serving God who brought him out of prison and made him president
for eight years. He said: “Baba Obasanjo has many reasons for returning
to God to serve him. You would recall how Gen. Abacha arrested him with
others, sentenced him to death for alleged involvement in a phantom
coup; he was set free after spending three years, three months and three
days in prison. He was elected president and served for eight years and
today he has many reasons to serve the same God. Don’t forget that he
graduated as an evangelist from the National Open University. God could
use anyone who is ready and willing to serve him.”
