Dr. Oby Ezekwesili |
A former Vice-President of the World Bank, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, on Wednesday debunked the speculations making the rounds on the blogsphere that she is in a serious amorous relationship with former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
In a trending photo, the former President is seen holding Ezekwesili from behind and giving her a peck on the cheek.
However, the ‘innocent’ picture sparked online debate as many concluded that the duo are in a serious relationship.
While denying the report that emanated from a photo she took with Obasanjo at his book launch, the former Minister said that Obasanjo merely gave her a “boisterous greeting” and nothing else.
She said that only those with “impure hearts” would read another meaning to the greeting.
She blamed declining “family values” for her critics’ line of thought, noting that those “purveyors of the filthy conversation” were merely “living for the gutter.”
“My former boss – President Obasanjo – gave me a boisterous greeting at his event yesterday (Tuesday) and the impure in heart now turn it to lurid tales.
“Restoring family values will also help take us back to a descent society. It is clear that many among us have lost our pure hearts
“Let us leave them to their lowliness. It is out of the abundance of the filthiness or purity of heart that the mouth speaks,” Ezekwesili tweeted. dailypost
