== == It hurts me to hear people say that obasanjo has killed his wife, as i can confirm, obasnjo is not very popular as a president but even with that for someone to overlook that the man will be suffering from the death of his wife ,instead of comforting him all they can think of even at this mourning period is that he killed his wife.

This is really a tragic period for Nigeria with the death of 116 people that were involved in the bell view plane crash. NTA was just hoarding information, it was really a pity that with this attitude the rest of the world saw the crashed plane on CNN before Nigerians were able to see it on the NTA network. We should really be made to know where we stand so that we know which steps to take. Princess Nas == ==]]

Am shocked at the manner your online information resource deleted the main issue of Obasanjo's illegal ammendment of the constitution so that the can become a life president. This was on your Olusegun Obasanjo history just two months ago. Who is paying for the deletion. Am really appalled. Ali Mongono==POV== This latest edit seems pretty non-NPOV. Someone may want to fix it. - Stoph 05:03, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

You know what. Everyone in Nigeria and all the Nigerians in America need to get a life. What in the world...I am so ashamed to be part of Nigeria. You'll are disgusting, nasty, cheap and need Jesus.

[edit] polygamy

Are there any sources to support polygamy? I changed the wife section on the infobox to Stella Obasanjo instead of reverting to the former text: Many(polygamist) - Stoph 20:07, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Pan-Nigerian Alphabet

Are the Pan-Nigerian Alphabet characters (ṣ ẹ ọ ẹ) really necessary? --Ezeu 20:07, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Apparently not. So I'm removing them. --Ezeu 03:23, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] History of Nigeria

A lot of this article reads like the History of Nigeria, rather than detailing the major events and accomplishments of Obasanjo's public service. Particularly as Head of State, which holds little executive power, listing everything that happened sounds a bit strange. --Dhartung | Talk 07:01, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The OBJ006 machine gun

According to a news wire, a new machine gun model was developed in Nigeria and was named "OBJ006" in honor of Obasanjo. Unfortunately all I have are news stories in French, so if somebody could find this information in English & update the wiki page, it would be nice. Hugo Dufort 20:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name

I've seen several variants for his full name. Does anyone know what it actually is? Biruitorul 05:36, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] bias

Am I the only one who thinks this article is very uncritical of Obasanjo? Perhaps a section on 'critism' that can generally be found in most biographys could be added? Likewise, perhaps some information about some of the good things he done since 1999 could be given a full section?
