Former president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has revealed to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, how it can make Nigeria better.
According to him, the leading opposition party needed committed people who would stand by it no matter what the situation might be.
He said particularly, they should have the interest of the country at heart.
Obasanjo made the remarks on Monday when leaders of the party from the South West zone visited him in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
He said the party should also be ready to send out the bad eggs within the party.
His words: “I knew PDP would lose the election in 2015 because it was clear, and I knew PDP will need to be rebuilt after losing the election.
“You need what I call a critical mass of committed people, and come rain, come shine they are committed. With that, you can make Nigeria better.
“You see peoples’ faces beautiful but you don’t know what each person harbours inside of him. If you discover a bad egg, remove such a person and if such person has learnt his or her lessons, there can still be room to accommodate the person.
“Politically speaking, you can’t be my friend if you don’t buy into Nigeria’s project. For me, till death, I will continue to push for a better Nigeria.”
Obasanjo said as the leading opposition party, PDP needed to emerge as a strong voice and help build a strong democratic system in the country.
