Obasanjo Turns Keke Driver

The ex-president, who freely rode some passengers to their destination on Saturday, caught the attention of many who cheered hailed him, and also took photos.

Obasanjo offered rides to citizens through Moshood Abiola, NNPC Mega Station, Kuto Market, among others, as part of OBJ @ 85 Free Keke Programme of the Youth Development Centre of Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL).

In his remarks, Obasanjo appealed to the youths not to leave Nigeria to those messing it up, noting that they need to keep their head straight amidst their daily struggle for a living.

The ex-leader said despite the challenges in the country, the youths should try to take advantage of available opportunities to make an impact.

“Things are not what they should be but youths, individually and collectively, must make contributions in order to make things the way they should be.

“If you leave things to those who are messing it up for you and who are saying you are the leaders of tomorrow, you will never have that tomorrow.

“God has given you innate ability to be what He wants you to be. If you make up your mind, God will help you and provide people who would help you”, he added.

KanyiDaily recalls that Olusegun Obasanjo was recently filmed showing off his moves while dancing with Nollywood actress, Adedoyin Kukoyi, at a birthday party.
