Mrs Bola Obasanjo is said to have made the comment while speaking at the Ogun State 3rd Investors Forum, according to The Cable.

“I thank God that I am with baba. Don’t think that it is because of his money, not at all, he doesn’t joke or mess around with his money,” she said.

“If he says he loves you, you must be hardworking. We nicknamed baba, wole joko jeun (enter, sit and eat) because of his busy nature. He is always attending to people. He has got answer to everybody’s problem. At times in our house, we receive over 100 guests in a single day, and we serve food to them.

“You dare not tell OBJ that there is no soup in the house, except you want trouble. When he comes in, rush to the kitchen, even if there nothing, you have to pretend that you are bringing something. If the kitchen is empty, you have to rush to the garden.

“He is a unique man, very unique, and it is not him, it is the grace of God upon his life,” she added.

Meanwhile, Obasanjo has said that President Muhammadu Buhari is not grounded in economic matters but he’s a good leader.
