Joseph Yobo: Why We Visited To Buhari by HungerBAD: 11:46pm On Aug 12, 2016
Former Super Eagles captain, Chief Joseph Yobo was part of a delegation of Niger Delta traditional rulers who paid a visit to President Muhammadu Buhari earlier today.

Yobo who was recently conferred with a chieftaincy title, the Mene Aborlo 1 of Ogoniland noted that the visit was connected to the ongoing efforts by the President to clean up the environmentally devastated region.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s tweet about the presence of the former captain at the villa was met jokingly via a tweet which noted that the President forgot to call him Chief.

The player who hails from Ogoniland since the announcement of his retirement from professional football, has been involved in several high level efforts to ensure that the clean up of Ogoniland is successful. The delegation was led led by HRM King G.N.K. Gininwa (JP) OFR, Gbenemene Tai Kingdom.

It is a commendable thing seeing young people like Yobo mediating in issues or even venturing into Politics. He is a relatable Model.

Does he need to explain why he visited the president? Buhari is the president of Nigeria, and anybody with the opportunity to visit him is free to do so.

Joseph Yobo is an hungry player

Is he not aware that the contract has already been awarded? And what relevance does he think his visit will add to the clean-up?

U guys seem to forget Yobo is also currently an appointee of Gov. Wike. He is Special Assistant on Youth or Sports or something like that. Nice one for him though as he positions himself for politics/service to the people one way or the other.
