former Director of Mobilisation of the Obidient Movement, Morris Monye, has apologised to Peter Obi and the movement’s members six months after resigning from the role.

Monye’s apology was conveyed in a statement he shared on X on Thursday.

The businessman resigned in November 2025, citing the movement’s poor coordination and underwhelming performance in the gubernatorial election in Anambra.

Monye further disclosed that he personally funded nationwide mobilisation efforts, including travel, local structure support, voter awareness campaigns, and logistics, without any financial backing from the movement’s leadership or Obi.

In his apology addressed to the “Obidient family”, he said his resignation letter was written at a “moment of frustration and immaturity”.

He said, “In that letter, I allowed deep frustration & personal emotions to cloud my judgment. I made statements that subtly and unnecessarily dragged Peter Obi, a man I still respect for his vision, integrity, and sacrifice for this nation. That was wrong. It was childish, and beneath the standard I should have upheld, especially as someone who once held a leadership position in this movement.

“I take full responsibility. No one forced me to write it. No one edited it. It came from me, and it was a mistake. I deleted the letter afterwards, but I know deletion does not erase the damage, the disappointment, or the loss of trust many of you felt. I understand why some of you no longer respect me the way you once did. You had every right to feel let down.”

He also tendered a personal apology to Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP).

Monye said, “Sir, I am sincerely sorry. My words were not a true reflection of the values of sacrifice, accountability, and constructive criticism that you preach. I failed in that moment.

“To every single Obidient, the ones who stayed grinding, the ones who defended the vision even when it was tough, the ones who felt betrayed by my actions, I am deeply sorry. You are the real heroes of this movement.

“Many of you are young people full of hope and fire for a better Nigeria. You didn’t deserve to see internal cracks turned into public drama. I let you down.”

Monye noted that his apology was not to curry favours or seek a position in the movement but “because it is the right thing to do”.

He added, “Leadership is not only about when the road is sweet and smooth; it is also about owning up when you mess up. I own this fully.

“I am committed to rebuilding trust through consistent actions, not just words. But I also know trust is not demanded, it is earned back slowly, if at all.”

See him face. This one has realised Peter Obi and Kwankwaso might win and wants to crawl back

Good of him...



Funny thing is that this morning while bathing I was thinking about this guy and saying he should just come out and apologize and move on after seeing his recent posts on Twitter.



Naptu2, come and access his apology also just as you did his resignation

Can frustration depart the Obidients camp? Hell no

They are disorganized not to be frustrated

After seeing the wave OBIdient and Kwankwasiyya are making

He has seen the light.

He has realized there’s no alternative to Peter Obi.

And if it’s not Peter Obi, then who? Tinubu and his mandate of death?

Mr man, keep your uzelezz apology to urself. PO and the Obidient movement has long moved on to the OK movement.

Your apology is not needed. Thank you

Just the beginning. You all stray chicks will come back, one by one. A new Nigeria is urgent and POssible.

I just remembered that the bolded was so obsessed with the story recently. I was even expecting him to be the first to post this.

Mods move this to front page please same way you moved his resignation letter.

Is my name gold? Why are people here so obsessed with it?

Way to go.

Nigeria is collapsing so fast under Tinubu. Man is clueless and useless

Imagine Oyo school kidnapping.....

Instead of teachers nationwide to o on an indefinite strike till those teachers and students are released, they are declaring a national 3days fasting and prayers.

1 Samuel 30:8. God instructee David to pursue the Amalekites who had raided his city, Ziklag, and taken captive his wives and children, as well as the possessions of his men. David was told to pursue them, and that he would overtake them and recover all that had been taken.

But I don't understand the kind of weak Christianity we practice nowadays.

Reason I love Israel. No nonsense. If you try this shit with Israel, be rest assured you will be erased

Apology accept brother me

Welcome back to the club

We love you

Well, the reality of what is on ground is telling on every living soul in Nigeria today.

Trust is hard to build but easy to destroy.

He lost his engagements i guess

This Peter dude is gathering momentum once again. Mayor Akinpelu was wrong to say Mr Obi doesn't have it like he did in 2023. 2027 will be interesting to watch.

*Orders ppcorn*

So he lacked maturity 6 months ago?

But he is mature now?

You are forgiven; sounds sincere and heartfelt. I pray you find the true path and bounce back with time. This is how apologies should be written. I still dey wait Gowon own, if he likes let him use "Nigeria Prays" to deceive himself.. He needs to apologise.

🤣 And yet you can't stop mentioning my name. Is that bot wonderful?

Reno omokri wanted to say exactly what these monye of man said, but he's currently confused how to go about it.

Peter obi remains a stainless man of good will.

Once their pockets run dry they will crawl back and start asking for forgiveness
