Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo on Thursday met with President William Ruto and Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
This comes moments after Obasanjo endorsed Azimio leader Raila Odinga for the African Union (AU) Commission.
The next AU chair will take over from the current chair Moussa Faki Mahamat.
Obasanjo said there is so much that needs to be corrected in Africa, which will require a suitable person to lead the commission.
“There is much more that is wrong with Africa today. In my part of the continent, West Africa is riddled with governments that were not installed through constitutional means. The area is riddled with insecurity, poverty, unemployment and you can say a similar thing for this part of Africa,” he said.
Obasanjo added that if AU is to serve its purpose, it will require the right person at the right time.
