The former Lagos State governor had met with traditional and political leaders across the country ahead of the presidential primaries of the APC in June to intimate them of his decision to run for the country’s number one seat.

He, however, was unable to meet with Obasanjo before emerging the APC presidential flagbearer.

With campaigns starting officially next month, Tinubu is beginning another round of consultations with leaders in the country and is starting with Obasanjo.

The news of his arrival in Abeokuta was broken by media aides of Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun on Wednesday.

Tinubu is also expected to meet with state executive and leaders of the APC in Ogun State during the visit.

Ogun State APC Chairman Chief Sanusi announced this in a statement which was seen by our correspondent.
