Peter Obi, former presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) has met with ex-governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, in the United States.
The two political figures crossed paths at the University of Cambridge during the 11th Annual Cambridge Africa Together Conference, which took place at St. John’s College. El-Rufai was featured among the event’s speakers, joining a roster of African leaders, academics, and influencers dedicated to dialogue and transformation across the continent.
El-Rufai, who has recently switched political allegiance from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Social Democratic Party (SDP), is widely viewed as a close political associate of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
