Open Letter To My Father, Senator Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello

The OBJ’s first daughter, the so-called Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello ruled out further communication with her father till death in a letter, describing him as a liar, manipulator, and all sorts, says determined to foist on President Goodluck Jonathan what no one would contemplate with him as president. 
 
The Vanguard Online published 11-page open letter written by Senator Iyabo Obasanjo to her father, in which she painted a very unwholesome intimate portrait of Nigeria’s leader, accusing him “of having an egoistic craving for power and living a life where only men of low esteem and intellect thrive.” 
 
Contrary to Obasanjo’s denial that he did not seek a third term, Iyabo 46, as reported, accused her father of orchestrating a third term for himself as president, cruelty to family members, abandonment of children and grandchildren, and also, a legendary reputation of maltreatment of women, including the mother. 
 
Iyabo, a veterinary doctor and epidemiologist who foreclosed further political engagements in Nigeria denied any political motive behind her missive, and described Nigeria as a country where her father and his likes have helped to create a situation where smart, capable people bend down to imbeciles to survive. 
 
"For you to accuse someone else of what you so obviously practiced yourself tells of your narcissistic megalomaniac personality. Everyone around for even a few minutes knows that the only thing you respond to is praise and worship of you", she wrote in reference to Obasanjo’s letter 2 December to President Goodluck Jonathan.
