LAGOS OCTOBER 20TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, on Thursday, met with former Nigerian Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Ebele Jonathan in Abuja.
Jonathan was president from 2010 to 2015. He lost the 2015 presidential election to Muhammadu Buhari and was the first incumbent president in Nigerian history to concede defeat in an election and, therefore, allow for a peaceful transition of power.
Meanwhile, Obasanjo has governed Nigeria as both the head of a military administration (1975-1979) and then again as a democratically elected civilian president (1999 – 2007).
The meeting took place during the 67th birthday celebration and presentation of 50 books by renowned legal scholar Prof. Mike Ozekhome SAN at the Abuja Continental Hotel.
Obi made the disclosure in a social media post on Friday evening.
The former Anambra governor praised Prof. Ozekhome’s contributions to Nigeria’s legal profession, describing his work as a testament to intellectual prowess and dedication to justice.
“Professor Ozekhome’s contributions to the legal profession and his commitment to justice have left an indelible mark on Nigeria’s legal landscape,” Obi wrote on social media.

His words, “Yesterday, I joined other notable figures, that included the esteemed former Presidents of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, and Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, to attend the 67th birthday celebration and the remarkable presentation of 50 books by the renowned legal Professor Mike Ozekhome SAN, CON, OFR, FCIArb, LL.M, PhD, LL.D, Litt.D, D.Sc.
“Professor Ozekhome’s contributions to the legal profession and his commitment to justice have left an indelible mark on Nigeria’s legal landscape.
“His body of work, as celebrated through these 50 volumes, is a testament to his intellectual prowess, relentless pursuit of truth, and dedication to the rule of law.
In an era where strong voices of reason and principle are needed, Professor Ozekhome stands out as a beacon of hope, fighting for the oppressed and championing the cause of the downtrodden.
His work transcends mere legal practice; it represents a legacy of courage, integrity, and the fight for a just and equitable society.
His books are not only scholarly works but also a reflection of his life’s mission to uphold the dignity of humanity and protect the sanctity of Nigeria’s Constitution.
As we celebrate his life and achievements, we must also recommit ourselves to the values he holds dear: justice, equality, and the defense of human rights. –PO”
