Ekiti state Governor, Ayo Fayose has accused Nigeria's former President Olusegun of benefiting from the deaths of Murtala Mohammed and M.K.O Abiola; THE CABLE reports.

Fayose made the accusation in a statement issued on Sunday by Lere Olayinka, his special assistant on public communications and new media.

Fayose said, ''Obasanjo is only fighting President Jonathan because he prevented him (Obasanjo) from ruling Nigeria from his Ota Farm. Obasanjo is a cancer that may never get cured in a lifetime. The moment Obasanjo is not the one controlling a house, he will want the house pulled down but this time around, he has failed. Obasanjo has always benefited from the misfortune of others and he is living with the impression that he is the wisest person in the whole world.

''When Murtala Mohammed was murdered in 1976, Obasanjo was the beneficiary. In 1993, he said the acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election, late Chief MKO Abiola, was not the Messiah Nigeria needed. Instead of Obasanjo to join the clamour for the actualisation of Abiola’s mandate, Obasanjo was canvassing for an Interim National Government, which he schemed to head. MKO Abiola died in detention in 1997 and Obasanjo became the beneficiary of his (Abiola) death''.

Blasting Obasanjo for failing to immortalize Abiola, Fayose said, ''Today, Obasanjo is fighting President Jonathan, the man who has done what he failed to do for Abiola, the Yoruba people and Nigerians as a whole when he was president for eight years, simply because he does not want anyone to equal his record as Nigeria’s longest-serving president.

''President Jonathan has made it impossible for Obasanjo to run his presidency for him and for this reason, he is supporting Buhari, hoping that he will be the one to nominate ministers for Buhari if he becomes president. Abanije eniyan to nba eeyan je kiri, ojo to ba dekun ibaje ni won maa ba oun naa je kanle ( He who destroys will ultimately ends up in destruction).

''However, I have this bad news for Obasanjo. Nigeria is not his football that he can kick around as he likes. President Jonathan will be reelected, and Nigeria will be freed from his (Obasanjo) bondage once and for all''.
