Mr Peter Obi, the immediate past governor of Anambra state, who is a honorary adviser to president Goodluck Jonathan said this in a recent interview with Vanguard.
He also likened the possibility of the APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari ruling Nigeria to passing a pregnant camel through the eye of a needle.

"In a world where a life-changing protest for democratic change, demanding for free and fair democracy without Chinese interference, was led by a 17-year-old boy in Hong Kong, APC is threatening to inflict a 72-year-old grandfather on Nigeria as president. Do you realise that the major companies of the world like doogle (1998), Yahoo (1994), Ebay (1995), Facebook (2004) and Alibaba (1999), were all founded by people under 40 years of age. Most of the captains of industry in Nigeria today are led by men and women who were in not yet in primary school 31 years ago, when Buhari’s was Head of State".He also said that Buhari did not have to wait until he becomes a president, before he save the country from Boko Haram.
" Gen. Buhari, as a respected, retired general and as an elder statesman, does not need an invitation, an appointment or an elective office to intervene on any national issue, especially issues of national security like the one facing the country at the moment. Elder statesmen all over the world do not wait to be invited before they step forward on matters of grave concern to their fatherland".
