Tinubu, Obi, Fayemi Meet At Vatican
President Bola Tinubu met with Labour Party Presidential candidate Peter Obi and former Ekiti Governor Kayode Fayemi at the installation mass of Pope Leo XIV on Sunday in Rome.
Fayemi noticed President Tinubu seated among other leaders and invited Obi to join him in paying homage to the Nigerian leader, to which Obi agreed.
Upon approaching the President, Fayemi initiated the conversation by saying, “Mr. President, welcome to our church, and thank you for honouring the Pope with your presence.”
President Tinubu, known for his quick wit, responded, “I should be the one welcoming you and Peter. I’m the Head of the Nigerian Delegation.”
The President’s remark elicited laughter from Obi, who concurred, saying, “Yes, indeed. We are members of your delegation.”
Both Peter Obi and Kayode Fayemi are devout Catholics and hold the distinguished title of Papal knights.
