Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said he is prepared to die if that is the price that he has to pay telling the truth.
The former first citizen maintained that not even the fear of death could stop him from raising his voice whenever there is a need to do so as an elder statesman in Nigeria and Africa as a whole.
Obasanjo disclosed this at a two-day interactive session of the Presidential Youth Mentorship Retreat, held at the Youth Development Centre, Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library, Abeokuta, on Tuesday.
The octogenarian said God had favoured him to live long after serving as military head of state and as democratically-elected president of the country, stressing that the youths across the African region needed mentorship by their leaders.
