OBIdient movement cannot be stopped — Peter Obi

…Urges supporters to endure sacrifice for realisation of new Nigeria

By Ibiyemi Mathew

Labour Party Presidential Candidate in the recently concluded Nigerian Presidential elections in February 2023, Mr Peter Obi has emphasised that the Obidient movement will remain undeterred.

In a series of tweets penned by Mr Peter Obi, he noted that “the ongoing unfortunate orchestrated efforts to demarket and delegitimise the OBIdient Movement will fail.”

“We are fully structured and have  remained focused and steadfast in addressing the ills in our nation while underpinning the supremacy of our Constitution and imperatives of the rule of law,” he said.

His statement is coming on the heels of an alleged audio conversation between him and the Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo which sparked various reactions from Nigerians.

Obi has however, encouraged his supporters to be relentless in their pursuit for a new Nigeria and to also avoid violence.

According to him, “Do not relent; and do not be lured into unnecessary conflicts. Be assured that in the fullness of time, our mission to rescue Nigeria from those engaged in State Capture will come to fruition.

“Datti and I are painfully mindful that for the mere reason of being OBIdient, most of you have suffered vituperations, physical attacks, loss of rights and privileges, hateful trolls, indignities and vexatious fighting words, even from some of those we long regarded as civic leaders and conscience of our nation. Please bear such attacks as the sacrifices that we are all required to make in order to create a New Nigeria, where justice, equity, fairness, love and prosperity shall reign.

“We are also using all lawful and peaceful means allowed under our laws and constitution to reclaim our mandate to create a New Nigeria that is POssible. Therefore, in all your actions and inactions, I continue to implore you to be law abiding, respectful and peaceful,” Obi noted.
