Glamtush reports that Former President Olusegun Obasanjo gave his seat to the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi at a function in Abuja this week, a move considered symbolic by supporters of Obi.
Both statesmen were at an event recently and, just before leaving, Obasanjo gave a short speech then elevated Peter Obi by placing him on his seat, and the moment was caught on video.
Obasanjo, Obi and other dignitaries were at the Transcorp Hilton in Abuja for a gathering organized by Fidelity Bank.
Oramah is the President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank).
In a Twitter post, @OluwaseunP, the master of ceremonies, narrated how Obi walked in while Obasanjo was making his speech.
The 2023 LP flagbearer took a seat at the back of the hall after refusing to take one of those reserved for VIPs.
“OBJ noticed & told them, “leave him alone o”. He then went himself to bring Obi to the front & gave him his own seat. Then said, “my job is done”, the tweet added.
The video has gone viral on Twitter and Facebook, with some describing Obasanjo’s action as “symbolic” and “an endorsement”.
