The Eastern Union (EU), a political pressure group for the people of Old Eastern Region, has expressed support for Peter Obi for finally defecting to the African Democratic Congress (ADC)

Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party who had been part of the ADC coalition, officially joined the party on December 31, 2025, sealing every hope of those who thought he could still be the flag bearer of the Labour Party, which already has a splinter group.

The Eastern Union, in a statement signed by Hon. Charles Anike, National President, Eastern Union (EU), hailed Mr. Obi for taking the bold step by defecting to the ADC.

He said the decision to defect to ADC before 2026, was necessary and timely as that would lead to adjustments by the party’s leadership.

Anike noted that the Labour Party has over the period been infiltrated by the APC like dangerous viruses, adding that President Bola Tinubu’s die-hard political allies had planted many political moles in Labour Party, just as they did in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), especially after the overwhelming performance of the Labour Party through the Obi candidacy.

Anike stressed that the unbelievable performance of the party through the Obi candidacy had kept the APC restless and sleepless, after the alleged connivance of INEC Chairman.

Anike stated that the only option left for the APC is to, at all costs and by all means, destroy the major opposition party.

According to him, as a major strategy, the APC believes that the only way forward in trying to sustain their stolen mandate is to create crises in the major opposition parties.

In this circumstance, the Nigerian masses have been waiting seriously for this move by the people’s candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, and now by his defection, the people’s hope has been revived and rekindled.

The EU, by this courageous and well calculated move by Mr. Obi, will commence in earnest to mobilise and sensitise fellow Nigerians on the need to gear up once again and renew their resolve to reclaim their country from political desperados and bandits who has in the past 12 years grabbed power and enslaved the people in their father’s land.

The Obi’s defection is not only a welcome development but a multiplied encouragement to Nigerians and dead blow to the APC for the New Year.

Our energies have been revived and the political atmosphere will surely change soon. We had earlier advised Tinubu to start locating the exit doors out of the Presidential Villa, but he is still hoping and believing that it will be business as usual.

But, unknown to them, Nigerians, especially the wounded youths are warming up to shock Tinubu and the APC come 2027.

The defection of some state governors is nothing, but empty political threats and another APC political miscalculation, craftly plotted to bamboozle Nigerians for another round of server glitches, the EU boss stated.

Even though Obidients are very lousy and insultive most times, Please Nigerians let's give Obi a chance I think his intentions are good regardless of his aggressive supporters. It's not fair that a major tribe like Igbos have never ruled since the return of democracy.
I am trying my possible best here in Sokoto to create more awareness for the need to vote for an Igbo president for the sake of unity and a better Nigeria.
If Buhari had not ruled, I would still believe he is the only man that can fix this country.
Let's try Obi since the current president has proved he is only active politically.
Obi could be the only Security and economical solution we need to prosper as a nation.

Starving EU?

Those guys don’t even know where to start solving their problems and here they are , talking about supporting someone who is bound yo lose!

They better go make peace with Putin before the entire Europe falls under Russia.

EU 🤣😆🤣😆🤣. Dumbo’s don’t even know their priorities! Let’s even imagine they don’t, a feasibility study would have clearly exposed what they up against!

Seems they need education with feasibility study in EU! They always start what they cannot finish!

They better partner with Nigeria so we can educate them on “Feasibility Study”. Same mistake with Russia, and ready to repeat with Nigeria!

Someone should please tell EU they are on a lost path! The best they can get is Nigeria conquering Europe which is already in progress .
