Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has paid a visit to the newly crowned Olu of Warri, HRM Ogiame Atuwatse III.Ex-President Obasanjo had visited the monarch shortly after his well-attended coronation, despite the fact that the occasion clashed with the presentation of staff of office to the Emir of Bichi, who is an in-law to the President, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari

The 84-year-old statesman, himself a prominent Egba chief, was captured kneeling before the youthful Ogiame, who, though seated on his throne, deferred to the aged ex-president as he paid the youthful monarch due respect.

Obasanjo did more than mere bowing, he actually knelt down before the Olu of Warri.

Obasanjo did not bow to the young man, no, he bow to the throne and that's a man who understand the principles of life and culture. Now you know why people everywhere love, respect and adored the man called Olusegun Obasanjo.

Baba tun ti ṣàtẹnujẹ dé warri

My Hero....as a Yoruba, am happy Yoruba produced u and as a Nigerian, am happy Nigeria produced u

If it were Tinubu he would have stretch out his hand to shake the King, that's how you know an Omo oko from an Omo ale.
