BEVERLY HILLS, April 04, (THEWILL) – Northern leaders led by a prominent Islamic cleric, Ahmad Gumi, are currently in a closed-door meeting with former President Olusegun Obasanjo at the Obasanjo Presidential Library, Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
The former President media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi, who confirmed the meeting, said, “It’s not that the meeting was held, it is still going on and it’s not just between the two of them, it’s a stakeholders meeting holding at his residence here in Abeokuta.”
However, THEWILL gathered the meeting may not be unconnected with the state of insecurity in the country.
Gumi, a prominent religious leader, has been holding a series of meetings with various stakeholders including bandits as parts of efforts to solve the security challenge.
