It was truly a delightful and uplifting experience for me today, as I joined other Nigerians to watch Nigeria's National Team, the Super Eagles, live in Abidjan, Ivory Coast Capital, as they cruised to the semi-final of the ongoing AFCON tournament.

A hero returns home! Ahead of the presidential elections tomorrow, @PeterObi this evening touched down in his hometown Agulu, and was hosted by the people of his community. He also met with the Igwe of Agulu. @JosephOnuorah @chude__ @AfamDeluxo @MissPearls @IbkSports @IkukuomaC

It's been five days of pre-hearing for @PeterObi & @NgLabour party at the Court of Appeal; he has shown up for all these days, never missed a hearing. This level of commitment can only come from a leader desirous to see his country work, it's a pointer to kind of person PO is 🙌

Huge shoutout to all the women praying daily in front of the Court of Appeal. This group is made up of people from diverse background & faith, gathering everyday on Shehu Shagari way to pray for @PeterObi 's success at the tribunal. They try to always pray in different languages.

We are over 3hrs into this journey from Abidjan to Bouake, not one single checkpoint; errmmm no potholes oo! The road is clean and pristine. This is painful to say and admit, but we are not even Giants of West Africa 😕

He makes sure to be at all court hearings; sometimes it could be boring sitting and listening to the back & forth by Lawyers at PEPT, yet @PeterObi always shows up with a smile. Today, he arrived Abuja quite early, around 8am... just another day en route recovering his mandate🙏

It's the first time I would be at a wedding @PeterObi was attending. A different feel from the campaigns, you get to see PO in a relaxed mood (well, there aren't many times he looked perturbed). This wedding was between two #Obidients , and PO cancelled his engagements to be there

Let me add more pictures of @PeterObi to this tweet. The way he freely mixes with people is simply amazing. Come to think of it, isn't it a masterstroke that he decided to sit with the supporter's club? His presence spurred them, and they were quite energetic.

Before he entered the court, Mr Peter Obi made sure to sign the condolence register of the late Justice Ayobode Olujimi Lokulo-Sodipe. "You people have not ruled a line (to start a new day)" PO joked with the court officers... "anyway let me rule it for you people" he added.

So today, I took a break from Sports Photography to participate in the #1MillionMarch4PeterObi . I joined the mainland group who marched from Ikeja GRA all the way to Agege. Being a huge fan of @PeterObi , this was my own way of showing support for this cause. Thread of pictures

Stanley Nwabali was the last to leave the pitch last night- he was receiving the MOTM award, and went over to fans who waited for him. He was also the last to leave the Mixed zone, because he spoke to almost all the Naija journos. You've got to love him. 📸 @nsidibeakpan23

Second thread- let's go to the Progressive market, the 2nd part of Trade Fair, where @PeterObi took his campaign message to. Again, this is on a Saturday when 50% of the market don't open their shops. @OselokaHObaze @JosephOnuorah @IkukuomaC @AfamDeluxo @MissPearls @IbkSports

I don't regularly shoot entertainment gigs, but when I got invited last night to an event by Elite Global, I had to go see what it was all about. The renowned Obi Cubana, was expanding his franchise to Abidjan - introducing his 'Odogwu Bitters drink' to the Ivory Coast market.

You guys love this picture, so let me add 3 more in the sequence that led to it. PO arrived CoA, and seeing that the press wanted to ambush him, opted to park a bit distant from his usual parking spot. Journos were surprised when he suddenly showed up in front of their cameras😂

He returns, takes his seat to begin the same process again. For context, Journos covering the tribunal get tired, having to wait over 5hrs. Some lawyers don't even sit through the whole hearing. Makes one wonder where PO gets his own energy from. That's why people listen to him🙌

This man is an alumnus of Christ the King College in Onitsha, same secondary school @PeterObi graduated from, but he was 3yrs ahead of PO back then in College. Today, he marched all the way from Ikeja GRA to Agege in solidarity of his former schoolmate. He came in their regalia.

Lamidi Apapa was at the Appeal court today, but not with a fila (no pun intended). He cut a lonely figure inside the courtroom, and when he was about leaving, one of the counsels admonished him to stop fomenting trouble. Sometimes he looked aloof, other times, he looked happy.

There were 3 World Records in Eugene. No one questioned if the bar was correctly measured for Mondo Duplantis' 6.21m WR - Pole Vault. No one questioned Sydney McLaughlin's 50.68s WR - 400mH. But Tobi Amusan does 12.12s, suddenly 'it was not timed correctly.' Institutional bias😡

Respect, adulation...it might mean little, but there's this symbol of authority, PO gets from the Police officers (frame 2). If you look closely, you will see the police officer to his left, saluting him. Again, it might mean nothing, but you can't take away his aura.
