Atiku Eulogises Obasanjo On 82nd Birthday

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has hailed ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo on the occasion of his 82nd birthday.

Atiku, while celebrating with Obasanjo as he clocks 82 today, described the ex-president as the “only living Nigerian that has given much to Nigeria in peacetime and at war”.

Writing on his Official Twitter page, the former Vice President said: “On his very happy 82nd birthday to you, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo. No living Nigerian has given as much to Nigeria in peacetime and in war as you have.

“May almighty God grant you many more years in good health and continued service to Nigeria and the world at large.”

Obasanjo had before the presidential election made a U-turn and endorsed Atiku Abubakar whom he earlier slimed over corruption claims.

This came after the former president, in a series of open letters, rebuked President Muhammadu Buhari, whom he’d earlier endorsed for the country’s top job.

Obasanjo has curiously remained silent since the presidential result was announced with
Buhari re-elected to another four-year term in office.
