In its bid at recapturing Oyo State from the ruling Action Congress of Nigeria, (ACN), former President Chief Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday led a team of the PDP chieftains to the Bodija Ibadan residence of the former Oyo State Governor Rashidi Ladoja to woo him back to the party.

This is the second time Obasanjo will be visiting Ladoja in the last few weeks to convince him on the need to return to the party.

Obasanjo, who was approached by journalists after the closed door meeting, was proverbial in his response to the questions put to him by reporters.
He said, ‘’I came to see my younger brother and that is all.‘’

When pressed further, Obasanjo said;’’ It is the condition that made a crayfish to bend, adding that, “the bent crayfish would soon be straightened up. He did not elaborate as he jumped to his waiting vehicle with Mr. Segun Oni, the National Vice Chairman of PDP with him.

But LEADERSHIP was told by an insider at the meeting that the Ladoja has agreed to reopen negotiation on his return to the PDP.
