Ahead of the 2023 general elections, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has taken his campaign to Nnewi, Anambra State.
Obi visited the Obi of Otolo and Igwe of Nnewi Kingdom, Igwe Kenneth Onyeneke Orizu III.
The monarch gave his royal blessings to the Labour Party flag bearer and prayed for him for a successful outing.
Obi stated this on Tuesday via his verified Twitter handle @PeterObi.
The tweet reads: “I paid a courtesy call on the Obi of Otolo and Igwe of Nnewi Kingdom, Igwe Dr. Kenneth Onyeneke Orizu III. It was a very convivial and pleasant visit. Grateful for the wise counsel and prayers. -PO”
Sundiata Post recalls that Peter Obi had, while fielding questions in an interview with Channels yesterday, said that when he called to visit the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, during his rally in Lagos, he was told that the Oba was not readily available to receive him then.
