President Muhammadu Buhari, Bola Tinubu and Chief Bisi Akande
The All Progressives Congress National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and former governor of Osun State, Chief Bisi Akande have been seen laughing alongside President Muhammadu Buhari while seated inside Aso Rock.
However, Mr Tunde Rahman of Tinubu’s Media Office said the visit by Tinubu and Chief Bisi Akande to the Presidential Villa was scheduled since last week and had nothing to do with Obasanjo's statement.
”President Buhari periodically schedules talks with Asiwaju Tinubu and Baba Akande, as he does with other Nigerians and APC figures, to discuss substantive issues pertaining to the governance of the country and matters concerning the party.
”This visit was one of such meetings. As such, the meeting had nothing to do with the statement of former President Obasanjo.
”It is totally unconnected. At the time of the meeting, Tinubu and Baba Akande were even unaware that President Obasanjo had released his statement”, Rahman said.
