Shehu praises Jonathan's concession, criticises Obasanjo and Buhari

Public affairs commentator Mahdi Shehu praised former President Goodluck Jonathan for conceding defeat in the 2015 election, calling it a selfless act that saved Nigerian lives. Shehu stated history would be kind to Jonathan despite his flaws, while accusing former leaders Olusegun Obasanjo and Muhammadu Buhari of negative traits. He claimed Obasanjo would continue to harvest evil and treachery, and that Buhari's eight years in office would be documented as a period of empty claims and national destruction. Shehu also questioned Obasanjo's current interventions, suggesting they stem from venom and vindictiveness.
