Mr Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate, paid a visit to Nobel Laureate Prof Wole Soyinka amid a feud between the latter and the Obidients.
Obidents, a term used to describe Peter Obi supporters, had dragged playwright Soyinka over a comment he made condemning the LP’s Vice Presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed.
Obi, on the other hand, praised Soyinka for his achievements on the world stage and his struggle for a better Nigeria on Sunday via his Twitter handle.
He stated that Soyinka’s fight for justice would never be forgotten.
He explained that the visit was to erase the needless misconceptions concerning Soyinka and the Obidients movement.
“I cherished this Sunday’s visit, which was intended to erase the needless misconceptions about the relationship between the great icon and the Obidient family”, he posted.
Obi, who came third behind the President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the February 25th Presidential election, is currently challenging the polls at the Tribunal billed to commence on Monday, 8th May, 2023.
