2023: Peter Obi Meets Mimiko Behind Closed Doors

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, on Thursday held a meeting with a former Ondo State governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko.

Mimiko is the only governor who emerged on the platform of the labour party in Nigeria.

He governed Ondo from 2009 to 2017.

He shared photos from their meeting on his verified Twitter page, @segunmimiko, on Thursday.

“Pleased to receive my brother, H.E. @PeterObi this morning,” he wrote.

The meeting is coming a day after Obi meet with the new Consul-General of the United States in Nigeria, William B. Stevens.

Obi on Wednesday noted that he had “constructive discussions and exchanged ideas” with Stevens during the visit.

The former Anambra State governor said, “It was my pleasure to meet with William B. Stevens, the new Consul-General of the United States in Nigeria. We had constructive discussions and exchanged ideas.

“I also shared with him my vision of a new, secure and united Nigeria in which governance and development will be driven by production.”

Obi is, however, yet to share details of his visit with Mimiko as at the time of filing this report.
