Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has weighed in on the rising military coups in Africa, saying the development shows that young people are in search of liberators.
Speaking at Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL) in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital during an interactive session with a group of youths, the former leader said he will not support a coup considering his experience in the hands of Former Military Dictator, Late General Sanni Abacha.
While calling for the entrenchment of true democratic principles with God-given attributes as a way of discouraging coups in the continent, Obasanjo urged African youths to brace up and take leadership positions today and not tomorrow, which may never come.
