A former Vice-President of the World Bank, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, on
Wednesday denied having any amorous relationship with former President
Olusegun Obasanjo.
Ezekwesili’s denial followed the widespread circulation of a photograph showing her in a very warm embrace with Obasanjo.
In the trending photo, the former President is seen holding Ezekwesili from behind and giving her a peck on the cheek.
The controversial picture was taken on Tuesday during the public presentation of Obasanjo’s three-part autobiography entitled, ‘My Watch’.
Many online commentators expressed displeasure with Ezekwesili and Obasanjo for behaving in such a manner in public.
They accused the former minister of education, who once served in Obasanjo’s cabinet, of being indecorous as a married woman and passing a wrong message to young girls who look up to her as a role model.
A group known as ‘Hope for Nigeria’ stated that it was taken aback by the decision of the two public figures to behave themselves that way in public.
