Abeokuta - President Goodluck Jonathan and former president Olusegun Obasanj, on Saturday held a closed-door meeting in Abeokuta, the Ogun capital.

Nyako, who addressed journalists after the meeting described Obasanjo as the most accomplished Nigeria adding: “and he will remain as such ever.”

“We have come to consult him with him on important matters,” he added. (NAN)
