Former President Olusegun Obasanjo was depressed ,Thursday, immediately he received the rumoured news that his son, Gbenga, was among the victims who died when the Akure-bound Chattered Associated Airline crashed in Lagos.
Obasanjo, clad in a white flowing agbada with blue cap, was a guest at a leadership training programme held at Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL), Abeokuta, when he received a call during a photo session with attendees of the programme.
Vanguard correspondent, who was at the event observed that the former president received many calls during the session while the expression on his face showed that something was wrong.
Obasanjo was seen shivering and shaking shortly after he received the rumoured news, but comported himself and gently left the venue.
During the conversation with one of his callers, Obasanjo loudly said; “which Gbenga? But, he is in Abuja”
Holding the hands of his friend, Prof. Akin Mabogunje, they went straight into a room within the Library complex where they spent almost one hour.
It was learnt that Obasanjo was relieved after speaking with Gbenga.

ReplyDeleteI am still wondering why from the beginning of the crash, all we heard was that Obasanjo's son was among the victims.Was this a planned crash or man made error? Who told anybody that Obasanjo's son was in the flight if not they expected and planned for him to be there. But God who sees the hearts an d intents of man always delivers them that hold on to him.
ReplyDeleteTrue, incidentally there is no Gbenga in d flight
