Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has made it clear to news men that they have no right to ask him what he discussed with President Muhammadu Buhari at Aso Rock in the same way they can’t ask him what he discussed with his wife.
Obasanjo, who was at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja, earlier today, Thursday, was asked what was the purpose of his visit to President Buhari, and his answer was: “Ha! Ha! If I say I shared experiences with my wife, you will ask me wetin I talk with my wife?”
He however hinted that he had briefed the President on his recent peace mission outside the country, even as said, on the claim by the National Assembly that he signed budgets without seeing the details during his reign: “Eh en? I signed budget without details? Anybody who told you that, go and ask him again.”
Obasanjo, commenting on the controversial 2016 national budget, said that the constitution allows the President to continue with the budget provided he does not go beyond the previous year.
“That can be done up to the middle of the year.”
He said however that he would not speak much on the budget until he had read it and know what it contains and know what to talk about.
Asked to comment on corruption war and the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, former President Obasanjo simply asked: “Eh en? What is wrong with him?” [myad]
