Addressing newsmen after the meeting, Obasanjo revealed that Wike had called to inform him of his presidential ambition, saying he only wished him well as he is no more in partisan politics.

However, Obasanjo said he would not cease to be a politician if it has to do with the welfare of the people.

He said “Of course, Governor Nyesom Wike as a presidential aspirant expressed to me the desire and of course I made the point that I have always made that, I have ceased to be a partisan politician.
