When she got to the event, Sule said she sat in a front seat assigned to a journalist who ran late for the event.

When they got to the private room, she said Obasanjo asked her, “Whose daughter are you?” and she replied;

My father isn’t anyone you know. He’s Just a normal Nigerian citizen who relocated to the UK for a better life.
