Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says he is willing to support any candidate that can tirelessly solve the problems militating against the growth of Nigeria.

Obasanjo insisted that poor leadership was one of the reasons the country was facing challenges.

The former Nigerian leader made these known on Thursday when he received former Minister of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs Kabiru Tanimu Turak, at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, Ogun state.

“Let me say that what is happening here today or what you’re making to happen with your delegation particularly gladdens my heart,” he said.

“You are firming up and stabilising our democracy. Democracy is not a destination but a journey and there is no nation that can claim to have reached the final destination.

“It is good for us as a nation and our democracy. We have said a lot of things that we have identified about what we need to put right as a country. What do we lack? Why are we not where we should be?

“We are so divided today the way we have not been before. People are deprived socially and economically. But you know, I have never lost hope.”
