Join retirees’ club: Tinubu tells IBB, Obasanjo

National leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC),Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has advised former military President Ibrahim Babangida and ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo to join the club of retirees.

Tinubu said this on Tuesday at the end of a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa.

Tinubu in reaction to the advice by the former presidents that Buhari should not run in 2019 said: “I don’t address those shadows. We should let our former presidents join retirees’ club and take pensions but they can participate in our politics if they are interested.
