Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo wowed the audience at an event after he gave a special seat to Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

What appeared like a drama took place at an event celebrating the national award given to the President of the African Export-Import Bank, Prof. Benedict Oramah.

A viral video showed the former president calling up Obi who was sitting at table nine, and then putting him on table one.

The switch was greeted with applause by the audience in attendance.

As he went forward to pick the former Anambra State governor from his former seat, Obasanjo said, “In the presence of Nigerians”.

After leading Obi to table one, he declared, “My job is done”.

Despite speculations that Peter Obi is his choice, Obasanjo is yet to endorse a presidential candidate for the forthcoming poll.

The former president has had different meetings with Obi and his team, but has continued to insist that he remains neutral for now.
