‘obidients’ Close Alternative Result Collation Portal After Tinubu’s Lead by Melezenawii: 7:14pm On Mar 10, 2023
Controversy has trailed an independent collation of the February 25 presidential election results spearheaded by supporters of the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

The PUNCH reports that supporters of both Obi and his Peoples Democratic Party’s counterpart, Atiku Abubakar, have faulted the victory of the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate and now President-elect, Bola Tinubu, claiming that the election was rigged in favour of the former Lagos State governor.

The PUNCH reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission declared Tinubu as the President-elect after the 70-year-old polled 8,794,726 votes to defeat his closest rivals, Atiku and Obi, who scored 6,984,520 and 6,101, votes, respectively.

But both Atiku and Obi have refused to concede defeat in the February 25 presidential election, vowing to recover their electoral mandate in court.

The two candidates also rebuffed the gesture of conciliation made by Tinubu, who in his acceptance speech after he was declared the winner of the poll, asked them to support him in the task of building the nation.

However, both presidential candidates claimed they had data to back their claims in court. For the legal battle, The PUNCH reports that the trio engaged a combined team of 89 Senior Advocates of Nigeria.

Sources within the camp of the warring political parties said that the array of legal luminaries, drawn from different chambers, are currently being furnished with materials that could be tendered as evidence in court.

To prove their candidate’s case, supporters of Obi, known better as ‘Obidients’ on social media, had mobilised themselves to independently collate results and show Nigerians that the former Anambra State governor won the presidential poll.

The supporters, spearheaded by one Mark Essien, with the username @markessien on the popular microblogging site, Twitter, had claimed that the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System and Election Result Viewing Portal deployed by INEC were not utilised and true election results from different polling units across the country were not what was uploaded on the portal.

Collating results on an independent iReV, with the help of other Obidients, the first set of results shared by Essien showed that Obi was in the clear lead, a development that further justified the claim that their candidate was allegedly rigged out.

The way things are going, by tomorrow, we would have counted 160,000 polling unit results and done our own collation. All collation officers that thought they could announce anything they wanted did not understand the power of a mass movement,” Essien had tweeted on Thursday.


Trouble however started hours later after the collation showed that Tinubu polled more votes than Obi and Atiku combined and was in the lead against expectation. With the development, some Obidents turned on Essien and accused him of allegedly working for the Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, and not for Obi’s cause.

Leading the attack on Essien, a Twitter user with the handle @AfamDeluxo wrote, “Mark Essien is deeply into Nasiru El-rufai’s pocket. Trust whatever you think he is doing for the obidient movement at your own peril. You can go ahead and trust him, that’s fine, I don’t anyone that is friends, or crony with the high and mighty in the APC. Especially someone like Nasiru El-rufai. Never!”

However, the independent IReV portal’s results were later blocked from public view, a development that sparks reactions from Twitter users.

How are we sure "OBIdients" operated the said alternative site?

Obidients are not as daft as that.
We already have the results and will present them during the trials.

APC are free to deceive the gullible.

O to Z states aren't included such as Ondo, Oyo, Ogun, Osun, Taraba, Yobe and Zamfara where President Elect and Atiku won . Peter Obi have no path to victory with the remaining states.


Despite not including those states LP still lost based on their own summation

Mark Essien is a prominent obedient supporter on Twitter. He even made these billboards in his state for Peter Obi. He used to get plenty likes from the obedients as you can see in the picture below, until yesterday when he was finishing the last leg of his collation of results. Lol!

It happened live on twitter. I can show you the progression of his ‘count’. He opened a website and was collating results from iRev and some PU agent results LP people were sending to him dt they snapped on their phones.

When the count was going LP way, they were all excited (just be looking at the likes on his messages). All of a sudden, the count started showing APC leading by the time he got to ‘o’ states. As it progressed, the last result on his website was the last photo I attached (he couldn’t post it on Twitter cos obedients were already eating him alive). He then shut down the website and put up a message. SMH.

No wonder his case in court is focusing solely on INEC not uploading results. He has since abandoned trying to prove that he won.
