Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Labour Party leader Peter Obi have held a private meeting in Abuja, sparking wide political interest across the country. The closed-door meeting has triggered speculation about possible alliances and consultations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Although details of the discussion were not officially released, political observers believe the meeting focused on national unity, economic challenges and the future of Nigeria’s democracy. Supporters say the gathering reflects growing concern among elder statesmen and opposition leaders about the country’s direction.
Sources close to the meeting said the talks were exploratory and not yet tied to any formal political arrangement. However, the presence of three influential figures from different political backgrounds has fueled debate about whether a broad opposition front could emerge before 2027.
For now, all parties involved have remained silent on the outcome, but the meeting itself signals that behind-the-scenes consultations are intensifying as political leaders prepare for the next election cycle.
