A member of the Peoples Democratic Party, Ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor, on Monday, declared support for the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, over his PDP counterpart, Atiku Abubakar.

“I’m a member of the PDP and glad to be a member of the PDP but I am one that is very ‘Obidient’,” Ifaluyi-Isibor said on Channels Television’s breakfast show, Sunrise Daily.

Ifaluyi-Isibor, the Director of Mobilisation, Nigeria Diaspora Youth Coalition For Peter Obi, said he is not blinded by party loyalty, adding that he does not need to belong to the Labour Party to support its presidential candidate.

The former member of the House of Representatives from Edo Central said Nigerians are tired and frustrated and cannot continue the way things are, saying the All Progressives Congress and government at the centre took the people for granted.

Ifaluyi-Isibor noted that Peter Obi is the “poster boy for the revolution” for a new order.

‘Obidient’ is a sobriquet coined and adopted by followers of Obi to show their support for the 2023 presidential ambition of the 61-year-old.

Asked whether his action translates to anti-party or not, the Edo-based politician said, “My loyalty is first to my conscience, then to my nation, then to any other engagement which includes the political party.

“Being a member of the PDP, I am participating in all the electoral processes and I was more or less the spokesperson of the PDP in 2015 when we had that election.

“So, I have been a major player in the PDP but the development of Nigeria, the salvation that Nigeria needs is not vested in a political party any longer. You have people who are members of the PDP, members of the APC, and members of all kinds of political parties who support Mr Peter Obi because it transcends the political parties; we are trying to save our lives and not to save the political parties.”

The PDP member said those who say Obi’s support base only exists on social media are afraid.

He said though he backed former Vice-President Atiku in the 2019 presidential election, he switched to support Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, for the 2023 presidency because of his track records.

“We cannot continuously pretend that all is well and because I am a member of the PDP, then whoever the PDP candidate is, then you must support. That is not how democracy plays out in other developed economies. There are members of the Democrat Party who support Republican candidates and vice-versa. So, it is about the capacity, the competence and the capability of the individuals,” Ifaluyi-Isibor stated.

Obi, who was Atiku’s running mate in the last presidential poll, was a PDP presidential aspirant till May 2022 when he dumped the PDP for the Labour Party and subsequently emerged presidential candidate.

Meanwhile, the Independent National Electoral Commission said campaigns will officially begin on September 28, 2022. Aside from Atiku and Obi, also in the quest for Aso Rock in the February 2023 presidential election, which analysts have described as a three-horse race, is a former Lagos State governor and candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu.

Im APC and Obidient too.

Fact

I am PDP and yet Obidient. I know a lot of people who don't belong to LP and are yet Obidient.

Go and verify how animals swallowed money meant for citizens

This is how politics is supposed to be played, but all some stupid Nigerian care about is, ethic group and religion.. Afterwards they brag that they know politics.. Politics that involves human lives, like the kind practiced in Nigeria is not politics, its should be given another name, something like banditics or something... Ps, I'm OBIdient but I'll be voting for PDP candidates in my states, except for the senate and house of reps... Peace out!

Anyone who thinks those opposing and attacking Peter Obi doesn't know that he's the best candidate among all,is living in fool's paradise buh the only issue they've got with Peter Obi is his tribe in Nigeria.

Before December ,those still pretending or still deceiving themselves will surely come to terms that Peter Obi's presidency is sacrosanct..

Who doesn't want to align with living being instead of dead brainless beings parading themselves as candidates while lunatic and foolish miscreants defends their abnormalities and cheer them on eeh:::: Tuah!!!

Lastly,the 2023 presidential election is between Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar buh if you doubt me,you can bookmark this my comment for reference purposes...

NB: for the paid soulless morons that will come to cry foul on my mention,always know that I wouldn't stoop too low to engage any enslaved brainless ape because it's disgusts a lot and even shameful seeing their hate filled useless comments here..

I rest my case..Gracias!!!!

Enough people are apc and pdp in name but obidents by vote.
Many are pdp and apc in governorship, hor and hoa elections, but obidents in presidential.
Nigeria has gone beyond party affiliation.
Its all about capability, patriotism and capacity.
Peter obi-Datti ahmed are ready.

Heartaches as ochins leave d group..

Obi for President 2023
#ObiDatti2023

OBI is Atiku's girlfriend.... he will definitely fold for him.

We know that both Yekini and Atiku are OBIDIENT AT HEART but selfishness, greed and vested interests won't let them wish good for the masses..

They want to enslave the masses and want the children of the masses to remain as slaves to their own children...

The day Yekini says Seyi will lead the 50million youths under the command of Terrorist Shettima..... Then I may consider what comes out between his cockroach brown teeth.

Y

Chai

I repeat..

Nothing wey we no go see for this ElekShun period!

Ok

You're not a party loyalist. But a loyalist to the nation. Good one.

There they go....

May sane Nigerians like this man take Nigeria back from thugs, tribalists and polithiefcians

We cannot build a stable Nigeria on a weak and deceptive foundation

not uncommon. i have seen APC and PDP people and their families talk and campaign in favor of Obi without qualms. The ipobic mystery is when it's the other way around. You can't be for Obi and talk good or support other candidates, you'll be treated violently. We saw what they said and did recently to their guy in Lagos whose wife supports opposition.

That's how it's supposed to be. Even if na tinubu born u, u suppose to look out for the greater good of Nigerians and be obedient.

We said it, LP is there to take from PDP votes.
Imagine someone who's director of mobilisation group for Obi claiming that he's a PDP chieftain. Anyway, nothing concern us, na family business. After all, Obi na Atiku's girlfriend, their love will never die
