Obidient Movement Calls for Calm Amid Political Speculation

The Obidient Movement has addressed growing concerns regarding potential political realignments involving Peter Obi and other opposition figures. In a statement shared by the national coordinator, Yunusa Tanko, the movement urged supporters to remain calm and patient, emphasizing that Peter Obi remains fully committed to his mission.

The statement comes in light of widespread speculation about possible alliances, particularly involving former Kano State Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, ahead of the next electoral cycle. Discussions are ongoing about a new political platform reportedly linked to former Bayelsa State Governor Seriake Dickson, although no confirmations have been made regarding any defect plans.

The movement highlighted the importance of citizen participation and insisted that outcomes should align with its vision for a new Nigeria. This statement follows recent tensions within the opposition, exacerbated by a Supreme Court ruling on leadership disputes and uncertainties within party structures.
