OBASANJO: I am the Watchman of Nigerian Politics

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has described himself as the watchman of Nigerian politics due to the role he now plays in the country’s polity, and urged all Nigerians to engage in participatory democracy in order to vote for credible leaders who are patriotic.

FORMER NIGERIAN PRESIDENT O.B.J

Director of Media and Publicity of the Action Democratic Party’s Presidential Campaign Organisation, Mr. Pam Ibrahim, quoted Obasanjo as saying this while addressing the presidential candidate of the party, Mr. Yabagi Sani, who visited him in Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Obasanjo was said to have described as undemocratic, the attitude of some politicians who heat up the polity by undermining and denigrating other Nigerians through thuggery and harassment of innocent citizens.

Describing his role in Nigerian politics as a “watchman who is expected to be vigilant and raise the alarm whenever it is necessary”, the former president added that Nigeria is on a journey that has three phases.

He expressed the hope that ADP, as an emerging political force, will key into this journey to nationhood and provide good leadership, in view of the calibre of its members, especially as Nigerians are yearning for responsible leadership.

Speaking earlier, the leader of the delegation and presidential candidate of the ADP, Sani, informed the former president that his decision to run for the number one office in the country was borne out of the fact that Nigerians are frustrated with a directionless leadership, where hopelessness and insecurity have become the order of the day.

“We are in a country where the security of citizens is no longer guaranteed, giving the crime rate we experience on a daily basis, especially insurgency, armed robbery and kidnappings across the country”, he said.

Sani, who extolled the leadership virtues of the former president appealed to him not to relent in providing useful contribution that would lead to rekindling the hopes of Nigerians for a better future.

5 Ridiculous Money Mistakes You Seriously Need To Avoid in 2019

Don't put yourself in a difficult financial situation in 2019. Try your best to avoid these money mistakes.

2019 the year to get serious with your personal finance and stop making good financial decisions if you really want to become financially independent.

Making money and spending it anyhow has never helped anyone. Instead, it'll only leave you to be financially stagnant.

To have a good relationship with your money in 2019, here are five money mistakes you must seriously avoid. 

1. Living beyond your means

Living beyond your means only leaves you financially stagnant.

Living beyond your means while the little finance you have is going down the drain is really a drastic financial mistake you must avoid in the new year.

If you keep living an expensive lifestyle you cannot maintain, you end up trying to borrow money from people to keep up with that lifestyle. This only leaves you in serious debt and incurring debt is bad for your finances because your focus would be on paying your debt instead of focusing on your financial goals.

2. Not having an emergency fund

If you have never introduced the emergency funds to you your financial practices, 2019 is the right time for you to start. You won't like to go through financial issues that leave you broke again. To avoid that experience of spending all little savings to solve a financial problem, you need to start saving for unplanned and unexpected issues now. 

3. Over-subscriptions

Every month you pay for data, newspaper, magazine, cable/satellite TV subscriptions and you wonder why you didn't save enough in 2018. Do you know how much all that cost you? You may need to cut down on your monthly subscriptions or avoid it completely if you don't really need it. 

4. Not saving for retirement early

Save money!

One of the worst financial mistakes is not saving and planning for retirement early in life. You might think planning and saving for retirement early is a waste of time because you have other financial obligations to meet but you might regret your decision in the future.

5. Waiting to invest 

You failed to invest in 2018 because you think investments require a huge amount of money. That's a lie. Do not wait to have a large chunk of money before you start using your money in a way that makes it work for you.

he best time to start investing is now. No matter how small your income, you should set some money aside for the sole aim of investing. It's 2019, you need to start makings plans on how to grow your money.
