I accompanied Mr. Peter Obi on a six-state thank-you tour in the US

About a month ago, I accompanied Mr. Peter Obi on a six-state thank-you tour in the US. At the BWI airport, while traveling from Dallas, Texas, to Washington, DC, we met Opeoluwa Solalu, a DHS employee. Opeoluwa approached me and asked if he could take a picture with His Excellency, Mr. @PeterObi. After the photo, he gently told Mr. Obi, "I'm coming home to get married and would be honored to have you come."

Given Mr. PeterObi's busy schedule, I was unsure if he could attend the wedding. When I reminded him about the upcoming event, he mentioned our commitments: the campaign flag-off in Edo and two other high-profile events.

Yet, Mr. @PeterObi is known for honoring invitations, particularly from ordinary people. He said, "Let's get on with Edo, and if we finish, we'll leave immediately for Lagos because of Ope."

Upon arriving in Lagos, we searched for the venue for over an hour. PO was determined, and we finally found it. The joy and happiness in the atmosphere were palpable, from the security to the newlyweds, their parents, and friends. Mr. Obi went further by instructing me to give a substantial gift to the couple and some of the attendees.

PO shared with me how he had attended numerous events like this as a governor, sometimes sitting quietly at the back to encourage people without drawing attention. He emphasized that he prioritizes invitations from everyday Nigerians. "They are the ones who need my advice, encouragement, and support," he said.

When we met Opeoluwa, his excitement was evident. He gratefully said, "Thank you, Sir, for who you are and for the sacrifices you are making for Nigeria."

He then turned to me and thanked me for allowing him to interact with and take a picture with Mr. Peter Obi. For Opeoluwa, it was a dream and inspiration come true.

This is the humanity and dedication of Mr. Peter Obi, a leader who truly values and uplifts the everyday citizens of Nigeria.
