Breaking News: Obasanjo, Atiku Meet In Dramatic Reconciliation Ahead Of 2019
LAGOS JUNE 27TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Former President Olusegun Obasanjo exchanging greetings with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar while former President of Benin Republic; Boni Yayi looks on with excitements at the Gusau Institute during a function on ‘A New Era for China-Africa Cooperation’ at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja on Wednesday, June 27, 2018.
Though there had been no official statement from both political heavyweights on the development, political watchers say the move may not be unconnected with strategic efforts at building alignments and realignments ahead of 2019 presidential elections.
Observers say both former President Obasanjo and former Vice President Abubakar had been on same page in effecting leadership change, but from very opposing directions.
Though it was not immediately revealed that the coming of Beninese President was to effect the reconciliation at the meeting, indications are rife that the move may pave way for fortification of further partnership even though their relations had been soiled many years ago.
Analysts say a political tactician wouldn’t mind reconciling with known ‘enemies’ to drive home his target in record time.
Nigerians are watching after all.
