This seminar, masterminded by Alex Otti, the current Governor of Abia State, was tailored around the tenets of efficient governance. A noteworthy mention is that Fashola had previously imparted his wisdom on good governance to political appointees in Anambra, further solidifying his reputation in this realm.

While Fashola was captivating the minds of the Abia State Executives, Peter Obi, the previous presidential candidate for the Labour Party, found himself amidst a different audience. He was spotted in Kano, attending the wedding of an APC Chieftain’s daughter. To the amusement of many, he appeared keen on snapping photos with eminent political figures like Godswill Akpabio and Barau, the Senate President and Deputy Senate President respectively, both of whom owe their positions to President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

This contrasting scenario did not go unnoticed, prompting many ‘OBIdients’ (a colloquial term for Peter Obi’s supporters) and Nigerians at large to take to social media with the playful question: “Why not Peter Obi?” After all, Governor Alex Otti, currently serving under the Labour Party (having defected from APC), is well-acquainted with Peter Obi. Yet, for this pivotal retreat, Otti deemed Fashola the more appropriate choice probably because Alex Otti doesn’t want his appointees to govern Abia state the way obi misgoverned Anambra.

The comedic undertone of the day’s events underscores the ever-evolving dynamics of Nigerian politics. The decisions of leaders and the juxtaposition of events often provide not just food for thought but also a hearty laugh for the discerning Nigerian.

Take a look at some of the reactions to the trending story below;
