nigeria: Obasanjo, Buhari meet in public after party conventions

Celebrations at the Armed Forces Remembrance Day climaxed with the first meeting in public of President Olusegun Obasanjo, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in the 2003 presidential elections, with his rival, All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari. Clad in white flowing agbada, Gen. Buhari caused a stir when he entered the venue after the national anthem had been played and as President Obasanjo was about to march forward and lay his wreath on the tomb of the unknown soldier.
