Ex-Nigeria’s president, Olusegun Obasanjo has stated that he has no preferred candidate among those contesting the 2023 presidential election.
This was stated on Sunday in Minna by Obasanjo when he paid former Head of State, General Abdulsalam Abubakar a visit.
Obasanjo said he only had a national agenda not a preferred candidate.
“I don’t have a special candidate, I have a national agenda.”
The former President also said he was in Minna to visit the former Head of State who had been indisposed.
“I came to see my brother who has been a little indisposed. I had plans to visit him when he was still in London, but the day I arrived London was the day he returned home.
“So that is why I decided to come and see him at home. He is very special so I had to come.
He also said that “if there is anyone who is indisposed, I will visit and I am still strong.”
The former President who was in a close meeting with Abdulsalam arrived at 12:30 and left at 1:13pm
