Morris Monye, another person that works directly with Peter Obi, confirms that Akin Olaoye is on the Obidient Council, but Joe Slow on Nairaland says that, "Akin is not an Obidient chieftain". Another one claimed that there is nothing like Obidient Movement

Morris Monye @Morris_Monye

My brother, I have not seen you say anything positive about the movement. It’s always highlighting the negatives as if you are an outsider.

All is not rosey even in APC but their members keep their head up and amplify positive rhetorics.

You are on the advisory council of the Obidient Movement for SW. People are on the ground organizing and coordinating.

I will be in Abuja next week, then Asaba 2 days after then Osun a day after that and I can assure you that the movement is getting stronger in the SW.

Try to touch base with Baba Lanre Fadahunsi and hear from him. He’s from your place. You know him.

If we say we are truly Obidients and not moles then we have to always have a positive outlook and bring solution. This your talk will only give ammunition to the APC.

There are issues everywhere but managing it is key.

God bless my brother.

Gandollar:
Another pained corn muncher!
What are you going on about?

🤣 How's whatever I am going on about any of your business? Who's pained between me and you??

Go ahead, entertain me and prove Akin right.

Jack has just tweeted. I bet some of these people here will say that Jack, who was a member of Peter Obi's campaign council, is not an Obidient.

Jack has also confirmed that Akin is an Obidient chieftain. So who knows better, an insider that works directly with Peter Obi or Joe Slow on Nairaland?

MrSly:
Very lame at being sensational. You can only press the mumu button of balabluuu druggie supporters. Obedient movement is not a political party and does not have chieftain.

🤣 According to this guy, It's only political parties that have chieftains.

Juanmike:
So the grain Is for what?

To use when dancing.

benardtotti:
He's a perfect example of what you just posted and what Akin was referring to, they will learn a hard lesson in 2027 ,Obi too has not shown leadership.

That's the sad thing, some of them will prove Akin right. Two posts have already been hidden by the bot.

What is Dr Tanko Yunusa's title again?

Modified.

Oh, that post ⬆️ has vanished.

after4:
Akin na hem be the obidient chieftain?

😂😂😂😂😂
I don't know who selected you to participate in this 30k agbado gig, you dey spoil thing for them

Yawn. No one cares about 30k, agbado gig, selector or selection. That's just a complete waste of time.

The SW shift isn’t just about Obidients’ rhetoric,
it’s more about APC’s propaganda and voter suppression tactics post-2023. Labour Party gained traction in Lagos because people wanted change.
Blaming supporters hides the real issue that politicians are fueling division.

Akin Olaoye @akintollgate

False! LP gained traction in Lagos because people who matter in the grand scheme of local politics gave it oxygen to thrive. Don’t get it twisted!

Trix @Trixtian_

Those same set are now alienating the voting block in the north central with rhetorics i don't even understand. Sometimes I'm shocked how people destroy their own support base with their own hands. Its ridiculous.

Akin Olaoye @akintollgate

It needs to be studied! I think the sudden fame a few of them enjoyed with high engagement from toxic commentary fueled this behavior greatly!

Trix @Trixtian_

Its very sad. And there are people who genuinely want success but this loud few are becoming the reference point for the movement to onlookers.

Akin Olaoye aka Akin Tollgate is a chieftain of the Obidient Movement.

Akin Olaoye @akintollgate

The biggest mistake post 2023 was some loud mouths in the Obidients camp alienating a voting bloc in the SW with toxic rhetoric that fought the APC machinery. Many exploited reckless commentary for engagements not realizing the long term effects. Support in the SW has dissipated

Those same toxic accounts will show up under this tweet to repeat the same bad behaviors we tried correcting for months. People get fatigued with bad behavior and will dissociate from a group that continues to promote the behaviors they are accused of exuding. Correct course!

Well, you are right.

This is based on fact only. The group we created that year has been dismantle.

Akin Olaoye @akintollgate

Seeing many groups go offline in the past 1 year has been disheartening. The comment section only further proves the point I am trying to make.

Dotun of Dublin @dajabulani

Reality doesn't care about emotions; majority are too young and don't really understand the game of politics, it's absurd.

Goodluck to everyone though.

Note: you have a thick skin brotherman 👍💪💯

But why don't those people post their video on YouTube? It's the only video left.

lebete3000:
If only the man from Dubai can just sacrifice his aspirations of becoming the President of Nigeria and choose to be Obi's VP, then after Obi runs one term, he can run again when it's the North's turn and become President by 100yrs old.

Either way they're fvcked

Atiku has already served 8 years as a VP. He can't be a VP again. The constitution has given a two-term limit and Atiku served two terms as VP (1999 - 2003 and 2003 - 2007).

Weeks ago.

A picture of Atiku and Obi is attached to this tweet.

Tosin Olugbenga @TosinOlugbenga

Scooping from different reactions, opinions and others POVs, this ticket will not even be able to unseat Tinubu in 2027.

The general sentiment is that the presidency should remain in the South, even if Peter Obi agrees to be VP to Atiku, it will most likely be a failed ticket.

The only way to remove APC from power is for Atiku and his northern alliance to support the candidacy of Peter Obi.

Atiku can say goodbye to his presidential ambitions.

Imran U. Wakili (PULLO) @IU_Wakili

Hello, sir, As the opposition, we’ve got to agree to come together and back whoever ends up as our candidate. We all have our favorites, and sure, we each think our pick is the one to beat Tinubu. But if we’re splintered, arguing over who’s best, we’re just shooting ourselves in the foot. Unity is our strength here, we need to agree to support the candidate who emerges, period.

The Atiku/Obi ticket is easiest way to unseat that’s without a doubt, it is the “EASIEST” way but not the “ONLY” way, as some people would like to portray it and here is why, The Atiku/Obi will sweep the North 100%, no question. Plus, Obi no matter how unpopular he got after accepting to be AA’s VP, will give enough pull in the South to give us a solid shot at winning, but I’m not convinced it’s the slam-dunk we need governance wise.

First off, Atiku’s age is a big red flag for me. The guy’s 81. I mean, come on, can he really handle the grind of running Nigeria? It’s a tough job, and we can’t just brush it off with “Oh, we need his brain, not his body” or “He’s not here to wrestle.” We’ve heard that before, and I’m not buying it again. Nigerians deserve someone who’s got the energy to lead, not just the experience. Atiku’s a heavyweight, no doubt, but age matters.

Then there’s this whole zoning thing. I’m ready to ditch it, but I don’t want a Northerner to be the one to break that tradition. For me It’d be better if a Southerner steps up, does a solid eight years, and shows the country that Northerners don’t care where the president comes from, We just want someone who gets Nigeria’s mess and can fix it. A leader who understands our challenges, from security to the economy, and actually does something about them.

Now, what about a ticket like Obi with a strong Northern running mate? That could work, too both in governing well and taking on Tinubu. But it’s not a sure thing. The Northerner paired with Obi has to be a heavy hitter, someone with real clout and grassroots support up North.

Also, Obi’s not there yet in terms of Northern acceptability. Without a big name like Atiku or another Northern powerhouse backing him, and without a massive, all-in campaign, it’s going to be a slog to win those voters over. It’s doable, but it’ll take serious work—tons of energy, resources, and time, and we will be heavily banking on Tinubu to continue messing up, which I know he will.

So yeah, Atiku/Obi sounds stronger on paper, but we’ve got to think hard about Atiku’s age and what it means for leadership. And if we’re looking at Obi with a Northern running mate, we need to be strategic about who that is and how we make it stick.

Whatever we do, we can’t afford to be divided, we’ve got to rally behind one candidate and give it everything we’ve got.

Tosin Olugbenga is an Obidient.

He started out by referencing a coalition poster of Atiku and Obi. The photo of Atiku is larger than the photo of Obi.

Tosin Olugbenga said that that will never work and he gave his reasons why it will never work. He said that Peter Obi needs to be the presidential candidate with a strong northerner supporting him.

Tosin also quoted a well known politician and then he said that what worked in 2023 won't work in 2027. He said that Yusuf Datti cannot be the running mate to Peter Obi. He said that they need a strong northerner.

Imran Wakili is a fanatical supporter of Mallam Nasir El-Rufai


Imran quoted Tosin's post and said that Atiku would be a bad pick for the presidency, mainly because he is too old. He went on and on about the demerits of Atiku.

The interesting thing is that both of them did not say who their candidate is, but everybody knows what they are doing.

isan:
Was the match in abeokuta or ijebu ?

It was played at the MKO Abiola Stadium, Abeokuta. That was the main stadium for the National Sports Festival.
