The 2023 Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, held a closed-door meeting with Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed at the Ramat House in Bauchi on Thursday.
While the purpose of the meeting remains undisclosed, both leaders are engaged in private discussions and are expected to address journalists afterward.
The meeting between Obi, a key figure in the Labour Party, and Mohammed, a prominent member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), comes amid ongoing political maneuvering ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Earlier this week, El-Rufai formally exited the APC for the Social Democratic Party (SDP), citing the ruling party’s departure from its founding principles.
