Olusegun Obasanjo, the former president, met with Oluremi Tinubu, the first lady, on Monday.

Busola Kukoyi, the First Lady’s media assistant, revealed Obasanjo’s meeting with Mrs. Tinubu via X.

Kukoyi shared pictures of the two people and wrote: “On Monday, June 17, after receiving the former president who came to felicitate on the Sallah Celebration, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo and the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu.”

This occurs just 48 hours after Obasanjo was spotted wearing a headgear bearing President Bola Tinubu’s emblem.

A video of Obasanjo wearing a headgear bearing Tinubu’s logo at an event attended by certain African dignitaries was posted on Obasanjonews.com.

Despite hailing from the same Southwest geopolitical zone, Obasanjo and Tinubu are considered to have distinct political loyalties.

The former president backed Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, in the 2023 election.

Tinubu had gone to see Obasanjo at his home in Abeokuta, Ogun State, prior to the election, hoping to get the former President’s support, but Obi was chosen instead.

The previous president has attacked how the Tinubu administration handled the Niger Republic coup d’état and its ongoing reforms.
