Iyaloja Urges Nigerians to Reject Atiku and Obi in Elections

Iyaloja, a prominent market leader, has publicly urged Nigerians to reject presidential candidates Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi in the upcoming elections, asserting that their leadership would take Nigeria backwards. This statement was made during the inauguration of the IGM movement at Eagle Square, Abuja, which took place on a Thursday and attracted thousands of leaders and supporters.

Tinubu-Ojo, the convener of the movement, emphasized the establishment of structures across all 36 states, local government areas, and wards to mobilize market women, traders, and grassroots voters in support of President Tinubu's re-election. Iyaloja described market participants as a significant voting bloc and defended the current administration's policies, stating that the economic challenges faced are part of a necessary transition that will ultimately yield positive results.

She likened the current situation to a painful labor process, suggesting that the benefits of the president's policies will become evident over time.
