Segun Osoba Offers Tips

OpenLife Nigeria reports that Segun Osoba, former Ogun State governor has cautioned Nigerians to tread carefully in their dealings with U.S. President Donald Trump, describing him as “a man who must be handled with care.”

Speaking as chairman of the occasion at the official presentation of “Beyond Expectations – A Memoir” by veteran journalist Yakubu Mohammed, Osoba warned against any foreign interference that could worsen Nigeria’s internal challenges.

“We have to be very, very careful with Trump,” he said. “Let us unite, not because of Tinubu, not because of government, but because of Nigeria.

“We don’t deserve any intervention from anywhere that could complicate our situation.”

Drawing a sharp contrast between world leaders, Osoba cited how the British Prime Minister and the Ukrainian President approached Trump differently.

“The President of Ukraine went and confronted Trump,” he recalled. “But the UK Prime Minister massaged him carefully, presented a letter from the King and that got Trump smiling. Let’s learn from that.”

Osoba, known for his blunt style, also called for national unity beyond religion and politics.

Referring to the opening prayers at the event, he said: “When the Christian prayed, I joined him. When the Sheikh came, I joined him.

“We are not to fight but to educate; that in Nigeria, religion is not our biggest issue. The real battle is against ISIS and insecurity.”

He praised some prominent Nigerians who, he said, have begun to rally around the current administration in the face of Threat of Military invasion by the U.S.

“Even Obi himself has said religion is not Nigeria’s problem,” Osoba noted, adding that WTO Director-General Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala also recently threw her support behind the government.

The event celebrated “Beyond Expectations,” a memoir that chronicles the rich career of Mohammed, one of Nigeria’s most accomplished journalists, editors, and administrators.
