Former President Olusegun Obasanjo , on Sunday, took a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari , describing his administration as a return to the era of the late former Head of state, Gen . Sani Abacha . Obasanjo stated this in his 16-page address, titled, Points for concern and action, given to journalists at his residence in Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library , Abeokuta.
