Nigeria: Do not vote corrupt leaders- president

(SomaliNet) Nigerias President, Olusegun Obasanjo, has urged Nigerians not to vote corrupt leaders into power, come April 2007.
Ummm... Who in Nigeria does that leave to vote for?
"I urge you not to allow the actualization our collective dream of a just, peaceful and prosperous nation, which we have labored for in the past eight years, to be truncated by the emergence of corrupt and inept leaders as successors to the current administration, Obasanjo said.

He also urged Nigerians to keep away from violence and other forms of transgressions during the election period. "The coming general elections should mark a historical defining moment in our nation's existence. The Federal Government will do all within its powers to ensure free, fair and credible elections, the president said.

Obasanjo is barred from standing for another term. He had earlier wanted to change Nigerias constitution to favor him but this motive was barred by many, one of whom was his deputy, Atiku Abubakar. Obasanjo has often accused Abubakar of corruption and their poor relationship has resulted in the latters loss of his position as Nigerias Vice President.
Ahah. Thank you. The light dawns.
