Former President, Obasanjo Breaks Silence over his Son’s Crashed Marriage

Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo says the crashed marriage between his son, Olujuwon and the daughter of his friend, a prominent philanthropist, Chief Kesington Adebutu, has nothing to do with him or their friendship.

News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the children of the two prominent Nigerians got married in May 2017 but later broke up nearly one year later.

Speaking on Saturday during the conferment of first honorary member on Adebutu at the 45th President’s party of Abeokuta Sports Club, Obasanjo said their children got married of their own volition, hence, he and his friend should not be made to pay for the consequence of the crashed marriage.
