BREAKING: OBASANJO VISITS BODE GEORGE AS FAMILY DECLARES RIFT OVER

BREAKING: OBASANJO VISITS BODE GEORGE AS FAMILY DECLARES RIFT OVER
• Currently meeting with Afenifere chieftain, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, at Adebanjo’s residence in Lekki
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo Saturday paid a visit to his former political ally and ex-national deputy chairman (South West) of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olabode George, at his residence in Ikoyi, Lagos.

Though a visit to condole with the PDP chieftain over the death of his son, Dipo, who died on May 9, 2018, it may also have ended the lingering fight between George and Obasanjo. Relations between the two former political allies became frosty following Obasanjo’s condemnation of George’s thanksgiving service after his (George) release from jail.

Obasanjo and his loyalists, including Chief Abraham Akanle, Chief Joju Fadairo, Dr. Femi Majekodunmi, Dr. Gbolade Oshinowo, Chief Kenny Martins, Otunba Oyewole Fasawe and others visited the Ikoyi residence of the former military administrator of Ondo State and urged him to take solace in God over the demise of his son.

“We cannot query God, but to only take solace in what He has done to you. If this did not happen, who knows what next that will happen. I have not been around but it was in my mind to come over and commiserate with you and the family. May God grant the depose eternal rest.

George’s sister, Alhaja Majolagbe, in her vote of thanks, declared that the fight between the duo was over with the visit.

She said: “We were all shocked when this started. But, today, devil has been put to shame. The evil this morning has been condemned outside this house. It will never come to this two great Nigerians anymore.

“There has come back again, when my brother will find Ota his home. It is over, Allah take all thanks.”
The rocky relationship between the duo dates back to Obasanjo’s days in office as president.
Bode George, a former chairman of the board of the Nigerian Ports Authority, was later convicted for corruption and jailed, but the sentence was eventually overturned by the Court of Appeal.
Former President Olusegun is currently meeting with Afenifere chieftain, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, at Adebanjo’s residence in Lekki, Lagos.

The meeting holding behind closed doors has in attendance other prominent Yoruba leaders, most of who are Obasanjo’s political enemies.

*24 Reasons Atiku Must Not Be President* *Greed* 1. Atiku borrowed money from Ecobank and refused to pay back. When his name was published as a delinquent debtor, he said he never applied for the N150m loan. It was just “allocated to him”. 2. Atiku took a loan from Bank PHB in 1998 of N300m to run for Governorship of Adamawa, when he was controversially declared the winner and after becoming the Vice President the bank “cancelled” the loan. 3. Atiku should tell us what happened to the N7.5b failed Chochi Dam project, for which he brought the contractor & supervised the project. 4. What happened to the Jada Federal Government communication project awarded by Obasanjo under his supervision which N4.5b went into a failed project? *Abuse of Office*  5. Atiku boasted that he was smart enough to set up Intels whilst he was a Customs Officer. Intels handles customs logistics and container services within the same Ports. Atiku used govt office as ‘w...

Learn to ignore and overlook many things if you truly want happiness in life

Learn to ignore and overlook many things if you truly want happiness in life  because the easiest way to a miserable life is to think that everybody is talking about you. Never allow anyone to steal your joy from you. What people say behind your back is none of your business as long as you are true to yourself. Never worry yourself about that.

Seventy percent of those who talk bad about you behind your back, wish to be like you. When people can't be like you they try to bring you down and condemn what you have. Those without mo...
