Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has clarified that his visit to his former boss, Olusegun Obasanjo, today is not politically motivated but merely a courtesy call on the former President.
Atiku, who arrived at Obasanjo’s Abeokuta residence within the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library at exactly 12:37 pm, was accompanied by former Governor of Cross River State, Senator Liyel Imoke; former Governor of Sokoto State, Senator Aminu Tambuwal; and Senator Abdul Ningi, among others.
Atiku and his entourage were received at Obasanjo’s residence by elder statesman Oyewole Fasawe before proceeding upstairs for a private meeting with Obasanjo, which lasted approximately one and a half hours.
Emerging from the meeting at about 2:17 pm, Atiku told journalists that he was on a courtesy visit to his former boss and that politics was not discussed.
