DETAILS emerged on Friday as to the reason former President Olusegun Obasanjo opened up on the state of health of his successor, President Umaru Yar’Adua.

Sources told Saturday Tribune that the former president was one of the few Nigerians who had seen the president in the last one month at the hospital where he is recuperating in Saudi Arabia.

Sources said that Obasanjo went to Saudi Arabia through Dubai recently and insisted on seeing Yar’Adua, who had been away from Nigeria for more than 30 days at the time.

It was gathered that Obasanjo left Saudi Arabia dejected based on what he saw and that he merely gathered himself to encourage Mrs. Turai Yar’Adua and people who were around the president.

A source said that Yar’Adua was barely able to recognise his predecessor and that the duo could not engage in discussions because of the state of Yar’Adua’s health.

It was gathered that Obasanjo had decided to keep the information to himself since his arrival from Saudi Arabia, but the information on the true state of Yar’Adua’s health informed his position at the last meeting of the Board of Trustees (BOT) of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), where he canvassed for the invocation of Section 145 of the constitution to make Vice President Goodluck Jonathan assume office in acting capacity.

The Yar'adua OBJ saw in Saudi is according to his own words, [size=28pt]AN INVALID![/size]
All the gerrymandering the Senate &House is doing is just a lack of balls.
Let 'em do the right thing.
Swear in President Goodluck Jonathan!
End of discussion.
