Obasanjo visits Babangida, embraces Atiku at Minna Airport

F

ormer President Olusegun Obasanjo on Tuesday visited former Head of State, Ibrahim Babangida in Minna, the Niger State capital.

IBB returned to the country four days ago after two months medical treatment in Germany.

The Nation reports that Obasanjo also met with his estranged deputy, Atiku Abubakar, at the Minna International Airport, where the two leaders hugged each other.

Atiku, who had visited the former military president, was in the town to attend the presidential declaration of Sam Nda-Isaiah of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Obasanjo, who arrived in a plane with registration number – GDOUR along with Senator Andy Uba, Chief Ayo Fasawe and a unidentified lady at about 4:30pm was about to be conveyed to Babangida’s house when his attention was drawn to the presence of Atiku at the airport.

The former vice president, who was already seated, awaiting clearance for his flight, stopped the pilot, alighted and headed straight to the car ferrying Obasanjo out of the airport and the two leaders hugged each other.

A black BMW car with registration number – ABJ 01 RJ then took Obasanjo to the Hilltop mansion of the former military president in company of Mohammed Babangida.

DailyPost recalls that the same car took Babangida home the day he arrived from Germany.
