Peter Obi was at Ibadan, and he visited the Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde as part of his consultations ahead of the 2023 general elections for very frank and constructive discussions, according to him.

The governors who had met at Asaba, Delta State under the auspices of the Southern Governors Forum where they had insisted that the presidency must move down south having been in the north under Buhari for eight years, come 2023, tactically avoided the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Organization Launch.
PDP member that was absent on the day of their campaign inauguration…..I’m not sure if anyone in entire generation has ever been even ordinary chancellor but here you are teaching a two time governor how to play politics….no be juju be that?

Even when Atiku Abubakar visited Seyi Makinde in Ibadan weeks ago, the governor minced no words on the issues of fairness, equity and justice.
Days ago, Peter Obi also visited Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State.
Today, I visited H.E. Gov. @RotimiAkeredolu of Ondo state, to condole with him on the passing of his mother. We also discussed the recent tragic killings in the Church in Owo, as well as some other burning national issues. -PO pic.twitter.com/KvzzLfakeJ

Peter Obi also visited former president Olusegun Obasanjo at Ota.
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 pic.twitter.com/PRkb57msRa

General Abdulsalami Abubakar:
It was a pleasure and honour for me and my running mate, Dr Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, to be hosted by Nigeria's military president, General Abdulsalami Abubakar, GCFR, at his home in Minna today. pic.twitter.com/8Owoy7GZy9

And see who met with Peter Obi today: Irrepressible governor of Rivers State, the face of stability in the PDP when a few of the Northern wing decided to wrestle the party to the ground and destroy it. They came back years after appearing apologetically, but wanting to make it a northern tribal party and Vehicle for rulership of all Nigerian people.
Nyesom Wike became the face of the resistance to buy the party with dollars and dispossess those who struggled to build it.
Peter Obi said “earlier today, I visited
@GovWike in Port Harcourt. As usual, I was very well received with genuine warmth and fraternal affection. Naturally, we discussed issues germane to national interest and nation-building”.
It was nice hosting my brother @PeterObi once again. pic.twitter.com/ilximBOuVF

The good thing in the struggle to keep Nigeria for all it’s good people is that a significant part of the Northern geographical area, the Middle Belt, is aligning with justice for the South. Even when a section of the north continues to marginalize the Middle Belt who are mostly Christians and liberal Muslims who cherish education for all it’s children.
We have no other country but Nigeria and we must learn to respect each other, tolerate and do things accordingly in order to create an atmosphere that will usher in unity, progress and the greatness we were destined for from inception. #POinJos

There’s also support from the home front in the South East.
With the campaign for the 2023 Presidential election officially kickstarted, I wish our party’s Presidential candidate, @PeterObi, a successful run. His capacity is never in doubt, and Nigerians are ready to receive him and his refreshing message of hope. pic.twitter.com/K1dSQidcq6

From the wonderful receptions Peter Obi and his running mate, Yusuf Datti are receiving across the length and breath of Nigeria, chances are bright that Labour Party would be ushered into the presidency in 2023.
