In a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Kehinde Akinyemi on Saturday, Obasanjo said the statements coming from those claiming to be supporters of Bola Tinubu were unhelpful.

 

The former President said the discussion during the visit was “more brotherly than political”, and that at the request of Bola Tinubu, Obasanjo agreed to no statement from either side.

 

“Those claiming to be insiders at the meeting issuing statement on the discussion and those crediting to me statement I had not made are enemies of the visitor and are not doing the visit any good”, Obasanjo said.

 

The APC Presidential candidate had met with the former president last Wednesday behind closed doors.
