Obi Warns Against Ascribing Ethnic, Religious Factor To ‘obidient Movement’ by Bobloco: 2:26pm On Mar 30, 2023
The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) and leader of the Obedient Movement in Nigeria and in the diaspora, Mr Peter Obi, has warned against ascribing religious, ethnic and other parochial interests to the movement, saying the attempt will fail.

Obi, in a series of tweets yesterday, said there was no looking back on the movement’s goal of taking back Nigeria, noting that the time was now.

Obi, a former Governor of Anambra State, said, “In the life of every nation, there is a turning point. For Nigeria, that time is now; a time to save Nigeria, save our democracy and give the Nigerian youths hope. The Obidient Movement has been the arrowhead in the take-back Nigeria mission.

“My role in the movement is that of a focal point. As I have always stressed, Nigeria remains a secular state. As such, the movement is not about my tribe or my religion, and it is not an Igbo agenda or in any way to Christianise Nigeria.



“My aspiration is for a new Nigeria, where the children of a nobody will become somebody. A nation anchored on national interests, and not sectional interests; where the entire youths from the six geopolitical zones will have a sense of belonging in the affairs of their country.”

Obi drew the attention of Nigerians to: “What is happening in Scotland, where a 37-year-old, Humza Yousaf, is set to become Scotland’s first minister, having won a keenly contested SNP’s leadership. Born to Pakistani parents who migrated to Scotland in the 60s, Yousaf is from the ethnic minority and a Muslim.

Obi further said, “I have always maintained that Nigerians must rise above ethnicity, religion and sectarian politics in matters of governance; and that the leadership selection process must be strictly based on character, competence, capacity and compassion. Only then shall our democracy flourish and our society progress. Contextually, the Scottish reality is instructive and presents us with some lessons learned and missed opportunities.”

Only criminals , miscreants and failures wind up sentiments of PODATTI as an ethnic movements.

The only team that was able to clear 25% in all the geopolitical zones in the country cannot be an ethnic or parochial movement.

A team that cleared lagos and the federal capital territory, abuja cannot be said to be such.

PODATTI is the man Nigerians voted for.
The new Nigeria is unstoppable.

"Christians take back ur country" Obi made this statement in a church with a microphone, nobody is ascribing any sentîmeñts to him, he rode on sentîmeñts.

Obi you have just two months left, enjoy your temporary fame but start looking for something else to do ahead cos you yourself know you are about to become very irrelevant soon

I just pity the Yoruba genZ shouting Obidence.

They don't know anything the goal is to Igbonise Yorubaland. What they failed to do during the civil war when they pushed West and were defeated in Ore is what they are attempting to do now with GRV.

1. GRV is 50% Igbo.
2. He married an igbo
3. His children are 75% Ibo, but will still bear the name Rhodes-vivour.
4. His children will now contest to be Governor of Lagos in future while claiming to be Yoruba.
5. Some of his children may be even married to Igbo.

They will do all they can to take over Lagos and their major weapon is inter-tribal marriage.

This same script is playing out in Osun, Ondo, Ekiti, Oyo, Ogun and Yoruba speaking parts of Kwara and Kogi.

In fact I suspect Seun Osewa is 25% Yoruba, 75% Igbo.

Rubbish

When Ipob Terrorists were threatening to Conquer Lagos and drive out Yorubas and their Traditional Rulers from Lagos

You were dead silent, their inflammatory Broadcasts are still on YouTube

You are now talking because your and Igbos wicked plans fell apart

God is for us and we hate nobody
