Obidient Movement Warns Wike Against Election Interference

The Obidient Movement issued a warning to Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, regarding his involvement in the 2027 general elections. Wike had recently announced that he was leading President Bola Tinubu's re-election campaign in the Federal Capital Territory and Rivers State.

The movement expressed concerns about the integrity of the electoral process, stating that no politician or party should dictate electoral outcomes before votes are cast. They emphasized that Wike's role in coordinating a political campaign does not grant him control over voters or the electoral process.

The Obidient Movement called for the Independent National Electoral Commission and security agencies to ensure a credible election and warned against any attempts to manipulate the electoral process. They urged Wike to campaign for his preferred candidates while allowing the electorate to make their own choices.

The movement also encouraged Nigerians to document electoral irregularities and report any malpractice.
