Former Nigeria’s President, Olusegun Obasanjo, was reportedly involved in a motor accident on Saturday afternoon along the Lagos/Ibadan Expressway.

According to reports, OBJ, as the former Head of State is fondly called, was on his way to Lagos to attend a church service to celebrate the 80th birthday of pool magnate, Sir Kesington Adebutu, popularly called Baba Ijebu.

Obasanjo was said to have hurriedly left Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, where a church programme was held in honour of his late wife, Mrs Stella Obasanjo, who died exactly a decade ago in Spain.

A rear tyre of his vehicle reportedly burst on motion few metres away from the Sagamu-interchange, and he alighted from the SUV to join another one in his convoy, and headed straight to Adebutu’s church service.
