The 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi and Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State held a closed-door meeting on Thursday.

The purpose of the meeting, which took place at the Ramat House in Bauchi State, could not be immediately ascertained.

However, the meeting between the LP and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stalwarts is believed to be connected to political permutations ahead of the 2027 general election.

Obi and Mohammed are expected to address journalists after the meeting.

Obi secured 6,101,533 votes to emerge third in the 2023 presidential election.

Since the presidential election, the former governor has held meetings with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and other political heavyweights.

There have been calls for uniting the opposition ahead of the 2027 election.
