Former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, were among the global leaders invited to participate in the 2024 International Leaders Forum held on the sidelines of the Democratic National Convention in the United States.

Obi disclosed this in a statement and pictures shared on social media on Wednesday. 

According to Obi, he, Osinbajo, and another Nigerian were invited by the Board of the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs to join global leaders in sharing experiences, building relationships, and addressing pressing challenges to democratic institutions, values, and norms.

“I am honoured and grateful to Senator Thomas Daschle and the Board of NDI for the gracious invitation,” Obi said. “Over the years, NDI has identified and invited key senior politicians and policymakers from around the world to observe an important and rich facet of the United States of America’s democratic process.”

Obi further explained that the forum featured presentations and exchanges with top US political leaders, including DNC Chair Jamie Harrison and former DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, as well as international leaders such as the Prime Minister of Kosovo, the former Prime Minister of Denmark, and the former NATO Secretary General.

“The ILF gathering serves as an opportunity for such leaders, drawn from diverse nationalities, ideologies, and geographies, to build relationships based on their shared experiences while identifying peculiarities as well as common interests, and addressing pressing challenges to democratic institutions, values, and norms,” Obi said.

He added that the ILF offered those from Africa’s nascent and evolving democracies the opportunity to learn from others and share their experiences in building resilient democracies.
