The legal luminary and human right activist, Femi Falana (SAN) took a swipe at the former President Olusegun Obasanjo as a President who built his Presidential Library on stolen funds.
Mr. Falana said Obasanjo always hide on immunity clause to defend his actions even when he had left office, adding that when he was asked recently to defend his squandering of billions of naira in a failed power project, he was saying he had immunity.
“This guy recently came out, when he was asked to account, he will come out to invoke immunity, tribal or ethnic sentiment.
Recently, he was asked to account and he held a meeting with one of the cultural groups, whose members he had always detested, he said his name is on the watch-list, my name was number 9 on the watch-list during his regime. This is the same guy who is now crying that his name is on the watch-list,†he said.
Femi Falana (SAN) thanked Soyinka for coming up with the intervention VIII series, lamenting that former President Olusegun Obasanjo built a presidential library with alleged stolen fund, saying that his reign witnessed all kinds of atrocities.
