Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has said that he’ll never go back to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for any reason.
Obasanjo told journalists, “I have told the Chairman that I was in PDP before but not now, God forbid, say when a dog vomits, it will go back to eat its vomit, no.
“I have said no partisan politics for me again and not partisan politics, but Nigeria is my passion until death do us part and anything that concerns Nigeria; the good of Nigeria, you will see my involvement.”
While maintaining that the meeting with Makarfi was nothing but a courtesy call, he talked up strong parties to sustain the country’s democratic ideals.
“I have said that publicly before and I will say it again, for our democracy to thrive and continue to be strong, we need strong party in government and strong party in the opposition.
“It has to be that way, otherwise party in government will get away with impunity and that is not good for democracy,” he said.
