[@lanrefashina4356]

no man is perfect. I have my reservation. To be objective, He is the best in performance among all past and present presidents of Nigeria. if you do not believe, ask yourself why the UN and other world bodies still respect and use him for very important of assignment all over the world till date. From Telecoms, Oil Sector, Banking among others, He did extremely well. Did he embezzle, I cannot tell authoritatively but the net of his good and bad acts, I give to him he is more of positive net Nigeria and Africa than a negative. By and large the Documentary is good.

Towards the end they talk about all the credit Obasanjo should get. Hello!!! You don't get credit for doing what you're supposed to be doing. You get credit for going above and beyond the requirements of the task.

[@MoManny]

By that logic no one would pass school (since you require credit for the job you did in order to pass) or get promoted (since you require positive credit/evaluation in order to move up). A bit ludicrous. Where your predecessors have failed but you have excelled, you deserve credit. Simple. Doesnt require a shrine of your good works and success but giving credit is the bare minimum.

OK, I'm thinking you may need to re-do this, the first speech you credit to Abacha was actually Babangida's speech. I know it's confusing, but I am pretty sure I saw that speech under IBB. sorry to bother but your other docs have been really on point, it'd be a shame if this one is the one that breaks the chain of accuracy.

He came from a poor home, escaped the tragedy of his birth by providence, but placed increased number of his people in abject poverty. Although he's the best of the worst we've had, except Yakubu Gowon, he does not merit any of these encomiums. Time will tell the truth. I believe history will judge him and his cohorts, except Gowon, harshly.

This video is a biography of Obasanjo and show the characteristic of Leadership at the time. His reforms were commendable given Eqypt was not built in a day. As in many African countries the issue of developing the population capacity (Education, Skills internal Capacity to provide goods and services) has been the greatest challenge, when the instinct of internal nationalism of the population is still strong.
