Former president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo has warned against handing over Nigeria’s democracy to “thieves and hooligans”.
He made the comment on Tuesday at the launch of ‘Mr Transition Hours’, a book written by former President Goodluck Jonathan.
Obasanjo said democracy should be in the hands of democrats, noting that thieves and hooligans can use it is a “dangerous weapon” against the state.
“It unifies rather than divide if democracy is found as an instrument in the hands of democrats. If it is in the hands of those, I call thieves, hooligans in politics, it can be a dangerous weapon,” he said.
“So, we must avoid hooligans to have access to this beautiful weapon because they might abuse and misuse it.”
