Iyabo Obasanjo Takes Back Seat

Iyabo ObasanjoIyabo Obasanjo seems to be the most popular daughter of any president Nigeria ever had. Aside the fact that her father has been called with her name on a lighter mood as Baba Iyabo, Iyabo became more popular when she took to public office.

By virtue of her father’s position, however, she became a sought-after acquaintance by many especially after her appointment as Commissioner for health by former Ogun State Governor Otunba Gbenga Daniel.

Perhaps because of the shame of being trounced so badly in her father’s native land, Iyabo, whose marriage to Jimi Bello, crashed many years ago, relocated abroad on the pretext that she was going for further studies.

However, we can reveal to you for free that the former commissioner, Iyabo has been spending most of her time in Canada, where she’s said to have returned to school but what appear to be close to truth is what insiders credited to her after her defeat that she will never have anything to do with partisan politics. That is appearing to be truth as she has stayed a distance to happening in the political world unlike some of those who were ousted from office with her that are either seeking re-election or relevance.
