2019: Saraki visits Obasanjo

In the build-up to the 2019 general elections, Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, has visited former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
Saraki, who recently defected from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), met Obasanjo on Monday in Abeokuta.
The meeting lasted for about two hours.
Accompanied by aides, Saraki arrived Obasanjo’s home about 5:30pm in a convoy of vehicles.
He left at exactly 7:12pm.
Saraki, who declined comments on happenings at the National Assembly, said his visit to Obasanjo “is a private one”.
He said: “You know I missed the official opening of the library and that is why I have decided to come and see the place and honestly, it is beautiful; we are very proud of what he (Obasanjo) has done here,” Saraki stated.
