Fayose, speaking in an interview with The Sun, asked the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to investigate Obasanjo’s assets before he became a civilian president and after he ruled for eight years.

The governor who alleged that Obasanjo looted Nigerian treasury while in government, queried whether all his assets were products of his salaries for eight years as president.

The governor maintained that Obasanjo lacks the moral standing to dish out advice on corruption because he, Obsanjo, is corrupt.

He said: “Look at somebody talking about corruption, when Obasanjo just returned from the prison, they should go and bring his picture and his asset, what was his worth when he was in prison and what happened after eight years when he looted the treasury.

“All those assets he now has in Obasanjo library and university and all that, are they products of his salary? So when they talk in this country we want to be able to listen and evaluate what they are talking about.

“Obasanjo should be behind the bars. The money that he used to bribe members of the National Assembly during his botched third term agenda, where did the money come from? Was it from his holier than thou presidency, or what?"

Governor Ayodele Fayose also shocked Nigerians with the revelation that Olusegun forced him and others to donate N10 million each to his presidential library.

Fayose asked the former president to refund his own part of the donation for the construction of the library that was commissioned recently as part of the activities to mark Obasanjo’s 80th birthday.
