Although ex-President Obasanjo is not happy with
Bukola Saraki for going against his new party the
way he did and he made it very clear to him and
his entourage, but he has promised to intervene.
Obasanjo scolded Saraki and other Senators
who plotted the Senate President coup with
him, saying “you children of nowadays, you
only run to elders when you have finished
making the damage”.
To make things easy, Obasanjo spoke with
President Buharri before Saraki got to his
house.
A presidency source said Buhari is always in
contact with Obasanjo, especially to seek for
advise..
The source said in one of their recent
conversations, Obasanjo informed Buhari that
Saraki was leading a small delegation of
Senators to his Abeokuta home to beg for his
intervention.
“I overheard President Buhari laughing and
saying to Obasanjo, ‘you have to see them, are
they not all your boys’?” the presidency source
said.
To this end, Obasanjo has promised to “ensure
communication between all parties”.
