2019: Top Presidential Candidates Who Have Visited Obasanjo Recently by agwom(m): 9:23pm On Aug 15, 2018
With the 2019 general elections coming closer, top presidential candidates have been taking turns to seek supports from statesmen across the country.


Recently, former president Olusegun Obasanjo have been receiving visitors.

Obasanjo ruled the nation for 12 years, first as a military Head of State for four years and eight years as civilian president.

Here are some prominent candidates who have met with the former president:

Atiku Abubakar

The former vice president of Nigeria, who has been at loggerhead with Obasanjo was seen with his former boss recently.

The PDP chieftain had earlier declared his intention of running for the presidential seat at Abuja.

On the 27th of July 2018 during an event by the Gusau Institute on “A New Era for China-Africa Cooperation”, he was seen exchanging pleasantries with Obasanjo which has been interpreted to be an endorsement by the former president of his former vice's candidacy.


Sule Lamido

The former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, on the 7th of August held a two hours closed-door meeting with former President Olusegun Obasanjo at his Presidential Library, in Abeokuta, seeking support for his 2019 presidential ambition.



Bukola Saraki

Following the recent defection of the Senate President Bukola Saraki to PDP, there have been rumour that he will be declaring for the presidency formally soon.

He too has joined in paying the former president visit in Abeokuta. He met with Obasanjo at his presidential library on the 14th of August from 5.27pm to 7.12pm.

Saraki however, refused to disclose the subject of discussion during the closed-door meeting.


Ibrahim Dankwambo

Also, the Presidential aspirant under the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Ibrahim Dankwambo on Tuesday met behind closed door with the former president in Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Dankwambo, Governor of Gombe State, arrived the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential library complex at exactly 1.10pm with his entourage.

SARAKI IS GONE!
Analyzing his body language for the past few days, We see a man who is giving life a final push for survival.
Akpabio's decamping is one of the strongest blows that have destroyed the foundation he has been standing on.
Akpabio is very rich, and he is a political principality that no A list politician has summoned the courage to criticize or mock his defection.
Every senator is negotiating for 2019, there is a limit they can follow Saraki. They won't follow Saraki at the expense of their 2019 interests.
He doesn't trust the Senators in his camp again, he is now running from Minna to Abeokuta, this move is a move of desperation and drowning man. If he is in charge, he won't make such moves within days.

Dogara is finding it difficult to decamp, because it is near impossibility for him to fly PDP in Bauchi and win his constituency, with the current sentiments on ground.
You would be surprised that many PDP Senators are negotiating with APC in secrets.
Saraki doesn't have the support of the power that be, his camp has been compromised by their 2019 selfish interests.
The INEC budget is putting him under pressure to reconvene, if not his foes are fast convincing Nigerians that he is the one on their way of progress.
With what happened to DG DSS, nobody in government would want to associate with him in secret again, he has lost a big grip.
He has lost every negotiating tool for soft landing. With or without him, the power that be can hijack the clerk to reconvene using INEC budget passage as excuse, to flush him out.
We see the end of Saraki, not just at the Senate, but also in Kwara.
He is really in a tight corner!

For the other ones, they are nothing but BUNCH of losers.
Sai Baba.
Sai Buhari.
GOD BLESS OUR PRESIDENT.

Aside having a sister who works with Mobil Nigeria Unlimited. Akpabio hails from a rather average background. He spent years in Lagos hustling before he joined politics after his family literally bribed him to return home from Lagos as they they considered his hustle there unproductive.
He joined politics and was a commissioner under Obong Victor Attah, then Governor for 8 years and now Senate.


So, When you say and I quote "Akpabio is very rich"... Can you educate us on the source of his wealth? Since he has suddenly become a compatriot to you and your fellow integrity - filled party loyals.

Meanwhile, dont ket your obsession with Saraki give you HBP. These people you spend all day and night defending and attacking on social media only care about theirselves, their families and how to embezzle whatever they find in the coffers of our country's treasury.
