Former President Olusegun Obasanjo hosted a high-profile dinner in Lagos on Saturday night, drawing some of Nigeria’s most influential political figures, including ex-President Goodluck Jonathan and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
The private gathering, held at a luxury venue in the heart of Lagos, brought together politicians, business leaders, and dignitaries from across the country.
Photos from the event show Obasanjo welcoming his guests with warm handshakes and hearty smiles, as Jonathan, Atiku, and others joined him at the table for the evening’s festivities.
Also spotted at the dinner were former governors, serving lawmakers, and prominent figures from various political parties, reflecting the diverse nature of the guest list.
Among those who attended the dinner were Goodluck Jonathan, ex-President of Sierra Leone Ernest Koroma, ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and ex-Senate President Bukola Saraki, among others.
Since the images surfaced online, Nigerians have been reacting to the rare sight of major political rivals and allies sitting together.
Many described the gathering as a symbol of hope for collaboration across party lines, especially as the country navigates economic recovery and security challenges.
