Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Mr. Peter Obi, Tuesday, held a closed-door meeting with Governor Seyi Makinde in Ibadan.
Speaking with journalists after a two-hour closed door meeting, Obi said it was part of the ongoing consultation focused on Nigeria’s future.
He added that his visit formed part of wider discussions with key stakeholders on national issues and the need for collaboration across political lines.
“We have come to consult and to continue discussions with His Excellency, the Governor on issues that concern the future of our country. My dear brother, the governor and I share a common belief that Nigeria must work for everyone, and that is the focus of our engagement.
“What we are doing is not about politics for its own sake, it is about Nigeria and how we can build a better nation for all our people. We are looking at a Nigeria that is united, secure and progressive, where every citizen has a fair chance to succeed based on merit and hard work, not connections”
