Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, Mr Peter Obi, has paid tribute to former President Muhammadu Buhari, recalling a personal encounter in which the late leader urged him to always prioritise the needs of poor Nigerians.
Speaking to journalists during a condolence visit to the late president’s family in Daura, Katsina State, Mr Obi said Buhari’s message of humility and service remained deeply etched in his memory.
