The first lesson I learned in my military training was: ‘Never Reinforce Failure’.

Former president Olusegun Obasanjo warned Nigerian not to vote Bola Hamed Tinubu back to power in the forthcoming 2027 Presidential election, because by voting him back to office is to reinforce failure.

Listening to Obasanjo in a viral video trending on all social media platform, the former Nigeria says the incumbent president Bola Tinubu always says the challenges he met are the reason why he is performing optimally.

Then, rhetorically, Obasanjo asked: “You knew there were many challenges, so why did you come? And you are even planning to go back, OBJ wondered.
