LAGOS – Nigeria’s President Olusegun Obasanjo dropped his clearest hint yet that he hopes to stay on if Parliament approves a contested proposition to change term limits, he said in an interview published on Monday.
“The reforms that we are putting in place have to be anchored, anchored in legislation, anchored in institutions,” Obasanjo told the United States newspaper, Washington Post. Obasanjo’s supporters are currently attempting to push a constitutional-reform package through Parliament, which would allow the president to stand for a third term in April 2007.- Nampa-AFPObasanjo’s supporters are currently attempting to push a constitutional-reform package through Parliament, which would allow the president to stand for a third term in April 2007.- Nampa-AFP
