ABUJA, JULY 25, 2016 – President Muhammadu Buhari and Olusegun Obasanjo, former president, on Monday held a private meeting at the presidential villa in Abuja.The former president arrived at the villa about 12:50pm, and he proceeded into a closed-door meeting with the president.
Both men had had a series of such private discussions since Buhari assumed power on May 29.
Obasanjo had visited Buhari for private talks on November 10, and on August 8, and he returned to the villa a month later.
Both men, who go into record as the only Nigerians who have presided over the country as military heads of state and civilian presidents, seem to be enjoying a good relationship.
As with all previous meetings, the matters discussed at Monday’s meeting were not disclosed to the media.
