The details of why Obasanjo met Babangida and Aliyu Gusau in Minna have emerged.

 

NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo arrived in Minna, Niger State, on Sunday evening to meet with Ibrahim Babangida, the former head of state.

 

This visit followed Obasanjo’s earlier engagement in Edo State, where he celebrated the 90th birthday of Chief Gabriel Igbinedion, the Esama of Benin Kingdom.

 

The Minna meeting saw the attendance of notable figures, including former Head of State General Abdulsalami Abubakar (rtd) and former National Security Adviser (NSA) General Aliyu Gusau (rtd).

Obasanjo’s media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi, confirmed the visit to TheCable.

 

It was not immediately clear what issues were discussed by the former Nigerian leaders, but multiple reports said the meeting was connected with pressing national issues that border on the current economic challenges.

 

Akinyemi clarified that Obasanjo’s visit to Minna also served as an opportunity to celebrate Babangida’s recent 83rd birthday, which Obasanjo could not attend due to prior commitments.

 

“The opportunity came yesterday, hence the visits to both Benin and Minna,” he said.

 

Obasanjo expressed appreciation for Babangida’s contributions to Nigeria and extended his well-wishes for Babangida’s continued good health.
