The Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Aare Gani Adams has fired back at former President Olusegun Obasanjo saying that his guarding angel will not forgive him if he reconciles with the former president.
Aare Adams spoke during a press conference at his Omole residence in Lagos on Tuesday berating the former president who cast aspersion on his (Adams) character.
Both men met coincidentally few days ago at the residence of elder statesman, Pa Ayo Adebanjo in Lagos and it was widely reported that Adebanjo had reconciled both men who have been having sour relationship for about 15 years.
Obasanjo quickly dismissed the reconciliation story saying he has no fight to warrant reconciliation with Adams.
According to Obasanjo, “It is true that I paid a personal visit to Chief Ayo Adebanjo at his residence in Lekki Phase 1 on December 2, 2020 and I met Gani Adams there. “I have no quarrel with Gani Adams, but for his past way of life which was not in accord with my standards and principles. “I have in the past, both in government and out of government, refused to grant Gani’s request to visit me.”
However, Aare Adams said it was necessary for him to respond to the former President hence the Tuesday press conference. Adams as part of the conference also spoke on insecurity in Nigeria expressing worry over the situation.
As a solution, he said the “only way to address the state of insecurity is for us to restructure the country. “When we restructure our security, we can have four levels of police. We can have the federal, regional, state and local government police”, Adams suggested.
