President Goodluck Jonathan and former president, Olusegun Obasanjo have put aside their much-publicized differences to find a solution to the problem of insecurity in the country.
The meeting between the two yesterday, August 27, 2014 at the state house in Abuja.continue..
OBJ and GEJ reportedly discussed the security challenge posed by Boko Haram in the Northern part of the country.
The former president is believed to have connections with people close to the sect and he took part in attempts to broker the release of the over 200 girls kidnapped on April 14, 2014 by Boko Haram.
Chief Obasanjo said:
“Yes, I can confirm that I met with Mr. President on his invitation. In fact, he had wanted to come down to Abeokuta, but as a sign of respect to the Office of the President, I had to go. We had discussion on the country’s security issues and that is all,”
Obasanjo recently accused Jonathan of destroying the Nigerian middle class and running an administration very much like that of late dictator, Sani Abacha.
