Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Monday paid a visit to the wife of the President, Remi Tinubu, in Lagos.
A media aide to the President’s wife, Busola Kukoyi, said Obasanjo came felicitating with her principal on the occasion of the Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.
“Former President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria Chief Olusegun Obasanjo and the First Lady of the Federal of Nigeria Senator Oluremi Tinubu after receiving the Former President who came felicitating on the Sallah Celebration on Monday 17th June,” Kukoyi wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
In the buildup to the 2023 presidential election won by ex-Lagos governor, Bola Tinubu, Obasanjo endorsed the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, as his preferred contestant for the poll.
“None of the contestants is a saint but when one compares their character, antecedent, their understanding, knowledge, discipline, and vitality that they can bring to bear and the great efforts required to stay focused on the job, particularly looking at where the country is today and with the experience on the job that I personally had, Peter Obi as a mentee has an edge,” Obasanjo had said.
