Photo of the Day: Tinubu, Jonathan Jam at IBB’s Party

Former military president, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, known in his heydays as Maradona, may still  be onto some boyish pranks or mischief.

At the wedding reception for Babangida’s second daughter, Halima in Minna today, Babangida or, maybe, the event managers  put the former governor of Lagos State, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the man he played a pivotal role in ousting from office, Goodluck Jonathan, to sit side by side.

Tinubu greets Saraki, the senate President that he loves calling ‘Buki “, at the discomfort of Jonathan.
Saraki and IBB share a joke

Babangida sits next to them, perhaps to be on the watch out in case of any problem.

But what will they be discussing? What will be going through the minds of the two politicians? Did Tinubu ask Jonathan when he would write the story of the election he lost to Muhammadu Buhari?

Give us your own conjecture here!

Well, apart from the oddity of Jonathan and Tinubu sitting together, we also found the women separated from the men.
