I will prostrate in my next visit, Obasanjo tells Olubadan-designate

Former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has promised to prostrate before Olubadan-designate, Lekan Balogun, during his next visit to the palace in accordance with Yoruba customs and beliefs.

Obasanjo made this known during his brief visit to the Alarere residence of the Olubadan of Ibadanland designate in Ibadan North-East local government area on Tuesday.

The former president had earlier joined the traditional ruler on a dining table before they both retired to a private corner for a private meeting.

It was gathered that the private chat did not last for more than five minutes after which the former president and his host exchanged banters.

It was while leaving that Chief Obasanjo reminded the traditional ruler that he had not prostrated for him with a promise to do so when next he visits him.

Reacting to the visitation, Dr Balogun, who was a Senator during the first term of Chief Obasanjo as president between 1999 and 2003 said it was a meeting of brothers, recalling that the former president had sent emissaries to him some weeks ago to congratulate him.

The traditional ruler who declined to disclose what the two ‘brothers’ discussed privately said, “though the visit was short, it was fruitful and very presidential.”
