Peter Obi Visits Malami Amid Legal Challenges

Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party for the 2023 elections, paid a visit to Abubakar Malami, the former Attorney General of the Federation, who is currently facing serious legal challenges. Malami is involved in two separate cases, including allegations of terrorism financing and illegal possession of firearms, as well as an 8.7 billion naira fraud and money laundering case.

The visit, disclosed via a social media post by the African Democratic Congress on Tuesday, aimed to express Obi's support for Malami amid these ongoing legal proceedings. However, further details regarding the meeting were not made public at the time of the report.

Additionally, Justice Joyc Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court in Abuja recently ordered a bail condition involving a sum of 200 million naira and two sureties, requiring the deposit of title deeds for properties in highbrow areas like Maitama and Asokoro, while the court retains custody of Malami's international passport pending the fulfillment of bail conditions.
