Obasanjo reveals why God made Donald Trump
US President

Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo has
revealed the reason God allowed Donald Trump to
become the President of United States of America.
According to him, Trump became US President so
that America can be humbled.
Obasanjo, who appeared to be mocking the US
election last November, stated this at an event
held at the French Embassy in Pretoria, South
Africa.
He said that even though Africa still needed
foreign direct investment, it was time for the
continent to show the rest of the world that it can
take charge of its own future,
The two-time Nigerian Head of state, who said he
was happy about the turnout of events in America,
added: ‘‘The fact that America can produce a
Trump in this day and age, it means Americans
are as human as we are.

‘”I am not justifying what African leaders are
doing. If our leaders are doing wrong, we should
say that they are doing wrong.
“Trump has come by Divine Will so that America
can be humbled, and we can also learn a lesson.
“Nobody can do it for us, and it is all of us, and if
we do it, we will get it right.”

" When I was born, my mother and father
decided to name me Matthew. I grew up
being called and addressed Matthew . What
is the meaning of Matthew in the Bible ? He
was a tax collector, ” he said .
“ So , when I grew up, I dropped Matthew
from my name. If anyone does not want to
see my eyes red , no one should call me
Matthew again . People ask, what is in a
name? For me, there is so much in a
name. ”
“ A doctor’ s mistake often leads to the death
of one patient, ” he said .
“ A lawyer’ s mistake leads to the client
going to jail . But if an engineer makes a
mistake that leads to the collapse of a
bridge or house , many people would lose
their lives.

mistakes to be made."
