Former Anambra State governor and candidate of the Labour Party for the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, has visited the Chairman Northern Elders Forum, Ango Abdullahi.

The visit was part of his political drive to gain hold in the region.

Obi, who visited the home town of his running mate, Dr. Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed, was, however, without him during the consultation visit on the NEF Chairman at his residence in Zaria.

Speaking to newsmen shortly after the visit, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party said “I came to get blessings and fatherly advice as well as discuss some political issues with the elder statesman.

“This is in view of his position, especially in the North and his persistent agitation for good democratic leadership in the country,” he said.

Obi said part of the discussion was to see how the country can turn into a viable and productive nation, as it has been unproductive for too long.
