The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has flown out of Nigeria to “understudy the Egyptian power sector, education, planning and finance sectors.”
Obi, a former governor of Anambra State this on Tuesday, announced his trip through his official Twitter handle.
According to him: “I just departed for Egypt on a 3-day visit as part of my detailed study of comparable countries to Nigeria,” he wrote.
“In Egypt, I am expected to understudy, among others, the Egyptian Power Sector, Education, Planning and Finance Sectors.”
Obi’s trip is coming barely eight months before the presidential election scheduled to hold in February 2023.
