Former presidential candidate Peter Obi on Friday visited lawyer and activist Dele Farotimi following his earlier meeting with former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Farotimi, who recently returned from the Ekiti correctional center, has been an outspoken advocate for justice, human rights, and good governance.

During the visit, Obi expressed his delight at finding Farotimi in high spirits and was deeply committed to the cause of building a better Nigeria.

“I was pleased to find him in good spirits and deeply encouraged by his unwavering dedication to the struggle for a better Nigeria,” Obi said on X.

The meeting served as a platform for both men to reflect on the nation’s challenges and the ongoing push for reforms. Obi commended Farotimi’s resilience, describing him as a symbol of courage in the face of adversity.

“Dele Farotimi exemplifies courage in the face of adversity, consistently taking bold stands for good governance in our nation. I wish him a fruitful and productive year as we continue to work together toward the development of our country,” Obi added.

Farotimi has consistently called for institutional reforms and greater accountability in leadership. His legal and activist work has earned him supporters and critics.

Obi concluded his remarks by reaffirming his belief in the possibility of a new Nigeria, stating that the collective efforts of like-minded individuals will continue to push the country toward progress.
