<p>The Dein of Agbor, His Royal Majesty,  ;Benjamin Ikenchuku(Keagborekuzi I) has stated
that former President  ;Olusegun Obasanjo
is concerned about the  ;pains of the north,
hence his recent statement for better Nigeria should be listened to in ;the
interest of all.</p>



<p>The monarch also called for dialogue between President Muhammad
Buhari and the elder statesman as both possess the qualities to achieve peace
and overcome the socio-economic challenges of the country.</p>



<p>The Dein, who spoke shortly after visiting Obasanjo in Abeokuta
Democracy Day  ;affirmed that  ;remains an elder statesman that is committed
to the progress, peace and unity of Nigeria  ;irrespective of divergent views about him. </p>



<p>“I have known Baba now for almost 20 years. He’s the President I
came to know when I came back to Nigeria in 2000. He is the President that I
admire. Some people say so many things about this old man which I found to be
untrue. </p>



<p>“Obasanjo is a man that is confident of who he is and where he
is going. </p>



<p>&#8220;He has served as President and led in different capacities
and well respected by global leaders.</p>



<p>“So, if somebody with this kind of experience and knowledge is
saying something, the nation should listen. </p>



<p>The Monarch emphasized that the shared military background  ;of both  ;President Buhari and  ;Obasanjo could  ;help steer this country forward.</p>



<p>He said the deplorable condition of the Badagry road (which he
took on his way back from Cotonou, Republic of Benin, where he was made a
Chancellor of a University, the first to be conferred on any Monarch from
Nigeria), the Fulanization issue, the country’s security situation and the Kano
government/Emir crises made him to come over to Abeokuta to see Obasanjo for intervention.</p>



<p>He  ;hinted that similar
visit would be made to the President, even as he commended thePresident  ;for reappointing one of his sons of Agbor, Godwin
Emeifele, as  ;Governor of the Central
Bank of Nigeria (CBN).</p>



<p> ;“Let me use this
opportunity to commend and thank Mr. President for giving us back for the very
first time, a two-term CBN governor, Godwin Emeifele, a worthy son of Agbor. I
felt it would have been very dangerous if he had been changed at this sensitive
time of our economy situation. So, I  ;thank Mr. President for that.”</p>
