Obasanjo Responds To Those Spreading His Death Rumour

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has reacted to rumours of his death making the rounds on social media.

Stating that he is alive, hale and hearty, the former president wondered why anyone should peddle such rumour.

“I heard the rumour that I was dead. I saw it on the social media. I quickly told my children and my relations that it was not true and that I was alive.

“Those who want me dead, that is their wish but God still keeps me alive.

Obasanjo spoke on Tuesday during the inauguration of the Old Garage/Oke Fia-Lameco Dual carriageway in Osogbo, Osun State, adding:

“Why would anyone wish me dead? Those who harbour such thoughts will not escape tragedy themselves.

“This kind of rumour is not only disturbing but shows the extent to which some people misuse technology. It is unacceptable,” the elder statesman stated.
