In July, Obi along side Baba-Ahmed, the Labour Party (LP) National Chairman, Julius Abure, and the Senior Pastor, Trinity House Church, Ituah Ighodalo, visited Obasanjo at his penthouse residence located within the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL) in Abeokuta.

“I deeply appreciate the opportunity to hold extensive discussions with President Olusegun Obasanjo earlier today on arising national interest matters. As usual, the exchanges were forthright and animated. -PO,” he twitted.
