The Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and his counterpart from the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, met in Lagos on Friday morning.
Sowore in a tweet confirmed that they were on the same flight and rode on the same airport shuttle this morning.
According to the activist, the former Governor of Anambra State asked him to wade into the attacks on members of the Labour Party in Lagos, which he responded that he was the first to react to the events.
“Arrived in Lagos this morning. I flew on the same @flyairpeace flight and rode on an airport shuttle with
@Peterobi of @NgLabour surprisingly he asked that I intervene concerning attacks on Lagos @NgLabour
members, I told him I was the first to do so, apparently, he wasn’t aware,” Sowore wrote on the microblogging platform.
Their coincidental meeting is coming eight days before the 2023 presidential election scheduled for Saturday, 25th February 2023.
