Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Monday visited President Muhammadu Buhari.

The two leaders met behind closed-doors after which Mr. Obasanjo told journalists he visited the president to deliver messages he brought from abroad.

Mr. Obasanjo, who spoke with State House correspondents, said, “I am visiting this time because I have some messages for the president.”

The former president said he recently travelled to Liberia and Gambia.

“I have messages that these two countries will want me to deliver to the president,” he said.

“Also, only yesterday I came back from Seychelles Island where I attended this year’s Annual General meeting of Africa Export Development Bank. And there are aspects of the proceedings that I think I should update the President on,” he said.
