What Masari said about Obasanjo after meeting with Buhari

Governor Aminu Masari on Sunday said Katsina State Elders’ Forum will soon reply former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s letter asking President Muhammadu Buhari not to seek re-election in 2019.

Masari spoke to newsmen after he led the elders on a condolence visit to President Buhari in Daura.

“The elders forum will consider the possibility of replying the recent letter by President Olusegun Obasanjo to Buhari.

“We intend to place an advertorial in the national dailies to respond to the issues he raised”, he stated.

Masari, who did not state the views of the elders on the issues raised by Obasanjo, confirmed that the forum had studied the letter and would respond to its contents.

“The response will not be long in coming; it will be very soon,” he said.

Masari said that the elders were in Daura to condole Buhari over the death of his two sisters – Hajiya Aisha Mamman and Hajiya Halima Dauda – and described their demise as “very saddening”.

“We came to formally commiserate with the President and also pray for the repose of the souls of the deceased.

“We also told the President to accept the development as destined by the Almighty,” he said.

Others in his entourage were Justice Mamman Nasir (rtd), Brig-Gen Ahmed Daku (rtd), Justice Sadiq Mahuta and Alhaji Dahiru Mangal.

Others included the Emir of Daura, Alhaji Farouk Umar, traditional title holders, among others.
