Former Nigerian president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo; presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi; and the leader of the Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, Chief Ayo Adebanjo; on Sunday paid a visit to the headquarters of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo in Enugu State.
The trio were in the state to condole with Ohanaeze Ndigbo over the death of a former Nigerian Minister in the first republic, Chief Mbazulike Amaechi, who died in November.
The former Anambra State Governor, Mr. Peter Obi, who posted photos of the event on his verified Twitter handle, said they were received by “Chief Ogene Okeke”.
He wrote: “I joined President Obasanjo and Pa Ayo Adebanjo at the Ohanaeze Headquarters in Enugu to sign the condolence register for late Chief Mbazulike Amaechi. The team was received by Chief Ogene Okeke. – PO.”
Recall that Amaechi had, prior to his death, led a delegation of prominent Igbo leaders to President Muhammadu Buhari to request the release of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.
