Former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Dr. Joe Odumakin
Olusegun Obasanjo has apologised to a Nigerian female activist who was assaulted and wronged while protesting against his government in 2004. Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has apologized to human rights activist, Dr. Joe Odumakin over a wrong that took place wayback in 2004 when he was the President of Nigeria.
Odumakin who had a bitter confrontation with the government and security operatives over her human rights activities was man-handled during a the May 19, 2004 protest. Odumakin was a vocal voice in Nigeria's politics as she frowned at the battle for power between Obasanjo and his deputy Atiku which nearly threw the country into chaos during Obasanjo's rule.
However, it seems like all things are not normal as Odumakin has revealed that former President Obasanjo has apologized for the shameful conduct of his security operatives back then.
"I apologise on behalf of the security operatives that manhandled you during the May 19, 2004 protest. Former President; Chief Olusegun Obasanjo told me today during d JAMB retreat interactive session, Abeokuta, Ogun State." Odumakin wrote on Instagram
