Iyabo Obasanjo's Letter Was Written In The Villa?!


As Nigerians still search for the reasons behind the Iyabo Obasanjo's letter to her father, ex President Olusegun Obasanjo which was made exclusively available to Vanguard Newspaper, an impeccable source reportedly told ‘TRANSPARENCY FOR NIGERIA'  the whole truth about how the letter letter came to be.



In the letter, Ms. Obasanjo described her father as a liar, manipulator, megalomaniac, narcissistic, two-faced hypocrite determined to foist on President Goodluck Jonathan what no one would contemplate with him as president. She also ruled out further communication with her father till death.

According to our source, a leading member of Mr. Jonathan media team who was once a respected journalist with a Lagos based media house is the brain behind the letter.

Our source told us that Iyabo Obasanjo and the media aide who is from the same state as her had been friends and she had always confided in him her bitterness towards her father.
According to our source, long before the former president wrote the 'famous' 18 -page letter to Mr. Jonathan, Iyabo had  been planning to write an explosive open letter to her father, but had been stopped from doing so all these while by the same aide who told her not to try it so as it could deepen the family crisis and would only amount to washing their dirty linens in the public, an advice which Iyabo reportedly accepted.

it was gathered that following the acerbic letter to his boss by the former president titled ‘Before It’s not too late,' the aide had to put pen to paper all that Iyabo had told him in the course of their conversations, and sent it across via mail to her for her perusal which she did and consented to.

The letter was then sent by Ms. Obasanjo to Vanguard editor, who was shocked at the content. Before going to press with the publication, a call we gathered was put across to her, where she agreed that the content of the letter be made public.

The media aide, we gathered was among the first to get the Vanguard publication of the letter and hurriedly took it to President Goodluck Jonathan.

Mails sent to the aid by 'Transparency For Nigeria' to confirm this story was not replied as at the time of going to press........
