Respect Your Age Or Else I Will Open Up On You- Waziri Hits Back At Obasanjo

Former Nigerian president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo recently said Mrs. Waziri, the former EFCC boss was a disaster to Nigeria's effort against corruption.

He also questioned her qualification and said she was appointed after former Delta State Governor, Jame Ibori recommended her.
"You all know where Ibori is today, so you should know what I mean," Obasanjo stated.

Trying to prove his point, he said: "Go and look at the condition or the qualification; go and look at the type of interaction that anybody holding that job will have with a similar organisation elsewhere. Did she have that type? What connection did she have with the FBI? What relationship did she have with the Metropolitan Police in London? It's not a picnic."

Mrs. Waziri, who didn't find that funny, has replied Obasanjo.

"I will like to warn that those who live in glass house don't throw stones and as such Obasanjo should not allow me open up on him. Respectable elder statesmen act and speak with decorum," she said.

She also accused him of manipulating the EFCC under Nuhu Ribadu to hunt political opponents in his (Obasanjo's) effort to secure a third term in office.

She also expressed surprise that a man who has been twice a Nigerian leader would "descend so low to peddle falsehood".

Waziri warned Obasanjo to respect his age or else she would "open up on him".
