Goodluck Jonathan has described ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo as the “boss of bosses.”
According to him, any politician who ignores the elder statesman does so at his loss.
Jonathan said: “He (Atiku) can’t get the APC ticket. If Atiku gets our party ticket, he would compete well.
“He’s always a passionate politician. But he would have to reach out to our boss, Baba OBJ, the boss of all bosses.
“We’ve all learnt at different times that you ignore OBJ at your peril. OBJ has the magic wand. He is respected at home and abroad.”
Obasanjo played a major role in the political career of Jonathan. He had influenced Jonathan’s choice as the running mate of late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua.
Jonathan, who rose to the number one position after the death of Yar’Adua, fell out with Obasanjo in 2013.
