Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Friday registered
for the National Identity Card (NIC) and kept the
information about his next of kin away from the prying eyes reporters who were bent on capturing his personal data. The former president said this would prevent undue
“publicity on the matter.”

Obasanjo, who arrived the National Identity Management
Commission (NIMC) office, Oke – Mosan, Abeokuta, at
1:35pm and received by the NIMC’s officials led by the
Director of Identity Card Database, Abuja office, Engr. Aliu
Azeez, quickly had his height measured and finger prints
taken.
But when it got to the column requiring information about
his next of kin, the former president who had been
responding orally to the NIMC officials’ questions, picked a
piece of paper, covered it with his palm, wrote the name of his next of kin and handed it over to the commission’s
personnel.
Turning to the curious reporters and surging television
cameramen, he said: “I have decided to keep my next of kin secret and away from you. If you know it, you will give it undue publicity.”
He later expressed confidence that the project if sustained, would help tackle the country security challenges.

You can say that again. May be another son or daughter he fathered outside wedlock.

OBJ has many good companies to keep going even after his death. You will be surprised it may not even be any of his sons or daughters?

Wise move.

He can not because he has been fcking his first son's wife.They have fallen out ofcourse and he is confuse on who the nest of kin will be.Maybe angry with his son for exposing his heinous crime.If i had a father like that,i would have killed him myself.

Yeye man that thrives in a yeye world full of yeye people,including the socalled press that is interested in the good side of a thief.
