Peter Obi is one man many people want to associate with and even a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State, Joe Igbokwe, is not someone that wants to miss the moment.
He had approached Peter Obi, who could be considered his kinsman, and quickly posed for a selfie, but that singular move is now causing trouble.
Now, the social media space has been set ablaze after the photo of the APC chieftain and Petter Obi showed up online.
Meanwhile, Peter Obi was the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections.
The LP candidate on Sunday attended the historic unification of the Nnewi Community in Lagos.
According to Obi via the microblogging platform, X, the Nnewi Community in Lagos since 1982, had no unified leadership.
