Members of the House of Representatives have described former President Olusegun Obasanjo as the grandfather and architect of corruption in the National Assembly when he was Nigeria's president.
The chairman of the House of Representatives committee on media and publicity, Abdulrasak Namdas, offered the description when he addressed reporters at the National Assembly in Abuja in reaction to a statement credited to Mr. Obasanjo to the effect that the National Assembly was Nigeria's most corrupt organ of government.
In addition to characterizing Mr. Obasanjo as the grandfather of corruption, the legislator stated that the former head of state was responsible for introducing corruption into the affairs of the National Assembly.
Mr. Namdas also accused former President Obasanjo of constituting himself into a permanent opposition figure to every government, adding that the ex-president was out to pull down the government of President Muhammadu Buhari.
