Details of the meeting between the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and former President Olusegun Obasanjo, on Wednesday, have emerged,

IDOMA VOICE reports that Tinubu visited the Penthouse residence at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL), Abeokuta apparently to seek the blessing of the ex-president for his presidential ambition.

At about 1 pm when Tinubu’s chopper landed within the OOPL, he was received by Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State, former Governors Segun Osoba, and Gbenga Daniel, Speaker of the House of Assembly, Olakunle Oluomo and other top government functionaries.

It was gathered that the duo had a private discussion not known to any of those who went in with the APC national leader.
