In a rare public interaction, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi, and former Ekiti State governor Kayode Fayemi met in Rome on Sunday for Pope Leo XIV’s installation mass.
“Mr. President, welcome to our church, and thank you for honouring the Pope with your presence.”
“I should be the one welcoming you and Peter. I’m the Head of the Nigerian Delegation.”
“Yes, indeed. We are members of your delegation.”
“In this our time, we still see too much discord, too many wounds caused by hatred, violence, prejudice, the fear of difference, and an economic paradigm that exploits the Earth’s resources and marginalises the poorest,” the Pope said.
