Chief Olusegun have been described as ‘cunny’ so many
times by his foes and even his friends will tell you he can be
dramatic. ‘Hide and Seek’ aptly described how former
President Obasanjo eventually met with
President Goodluck Jonathan who paid him a visit in
Abeokuta yesterday.
A reliable source while recounting how the drama unfolded
account said the moment baba Iyabo confirmed President
Jonathan had arrived Abeokuta, he (former President
Obasanjo) left his palatial Hilltop building in Abeokuta. Apart
from being driven ‘out’ in his black SUV and one security
Hilux when he should be ‘in’ to welcome president Jonathan,
Obasanjo also an, shunned his main entrance and made use
of his private gate in case they meet at the gate..hehehe see
drama.
While Chief Obasanjo was jetting out, President Jonathan
was also taking his time at the presidential lodge in
Abeokuta, to ‘rest’ after his political campaign held at the
stadium, where he met Ogun State potential voters.
A source close to Obasanjo’s Hilltop mansion in Abeokuta
had earlier confided in Vanguard that President Jonathan
was not in Obasanjo’s itinerary for the day at all. He also
hinted that Obasanjo jetted out around 2: 59 p.m few
minutes after the helicopter that flew the President to the
state, touched down. Operatives of the Department of State
Service (DSS) who had earlier besieged Obasanjo’s Hilltop
mansion as early as 6a.m in anticipation of President
Jonathan’s arrival also left the place at exactly 3.10p.m
when it became obvious that Jonathan was not coming.
But President Jonathan and Baba Iyabo eventually met. At
night! A closed-door meeting was held between the two
leaders starting from around 7.00pm. General Overseer of
Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye
and the Founder, Winners Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo,
were allegedly part of the meeting; part of the conditions
Obasanjo gave to hold any talk with President Jonathan.
Obasanjo, recently came down hard on Jonathan accusing
his administration of squandering $55 billion crude oil
savings and reserves. Jonathan had in turn promised to
expose what former leaders and heads of state failed to do
while in office that stunted the country’s socio-economic
growth. He later added that some leaders were behaving
like motor park touts, a comment that was perceived to be
aimed at Obasanjo.
The last night meeting however ended at 9.53pm without
official statement from both parties.
Jonathan woos Ogun voters At the Abeokuta rally, he
promised to create additional eight million jobs for Nigerian
youths in the next four years, if re-elected. While referring to
Gen. Mohammadu’s Buhari’s assertion that if elected, he
would ensure that all guilty corrupt persons are jailed,
Jonathan said:
“It is my prayer that a time will come in Nigeria that there
will be no single prison in the country.” You have a choice to
vote for those who will build more prisons for you or my
administration which will build more schools for you.”
