Saraki was accompanied by some of his associates during the visit to Obasanjo.

Both Obasanjo and Babangida among other elder statements are considered to be the kingmakers in the political circle in the country.

Presidential aspirants, it has become the tradition, get their blessings.

The two leaders, it would be recalled have been campaigning against the continuation of President Muhammadu Buhari in office beyond 2019.

Some forces have also been formed to frustrate the Buhari Presidency come 2019, with Obasanjo playing a key role.

The “consultation” by Saraki, is not unlikely to be aimed at selling himself as the possible choice against the Buhari candidacy in 2019.
