He stated this in Osogbo, Osun State, on Saturday at the book launch organised to mark the Asiwaju Musulumi of Yorubaland, Edo and Delta states, Olatunde Badmus, on the occasion of his 80th birthday celebrations.

Obasanjo, who was represented at the event by the Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, offered tips to the octogenarians on how to live longer.

In a speech read on his behalf by Adeleke, Obasanjo noted Badmus’s leadership roles in business and other spheres of life.

He, however, charged Badmus and other octogenarians to prioritise rest, one hour of exercise daily, and a two-meal-a-day routine to live beyond 90 years.

“By every standard, you are successful in all your endeavours. Your leadership roles in all the businesses you undertook are impressive. In business and outside business, you always make God your partner.

“At the age of 80, let me welcome you to this club. Let me read the rules of the club to you. Number one, your father and mother must not be alive, you must sleep for eight hours every day, you must undertake one hour of daily exercise like walking, and you must eat only twice a day.

“With obedience to these rules, your admission is registered and your longevity beyond 90 years is assured,” he said.
