Excited Crowd Welcomes Peter Obi At Banjul International Airport In The Gambia by Glimpsetv(op): 9:05pm On Mar 09
Former Peter Obi, the popular Nigerian politician and 2023 presidential candidate, was warmly received by an enthusiastic crowd upon arriving at Banjul International Airport on March 9, 2026.

Videos from the scene show Obi making his way through the airport terminal as a throng of admirers gathered around him, cheering, taking photos, and recording videos with their phones. Many supporters were seen reaching out to greet him, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere.

The former Anambra State governor is in The Gambia as the guest of honour at the Refela Africa national conference, scheduled to take place from March 10 to 11.

His reception at the airport quickly drew attention online, with supporters highlighting the moment as another example of Obi’s popularity and cross-border appeal across parts of the African continent.

Nigerians need a leader that loves d people and d people love him not one who loves d elite and mocks the hunger and poverty of d masses.
