The national coordinator of the Obidient Movement, Yunusa Tanko, has stated that supporters of former Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, Peter Obi, will move with him to the African Democratic Congress.
The former Anambra State governor, aged 64, formally joined the ADC on Wednesday in Enugu State alongside some of his supporters, including serving federal lawmakers.
Tanko confirmed that efforts to mobilise Obi’s supporters to the ADC are already underway.
He said, “We have made our position categorically clear right from the beginning that wherever Peter Obi is going we are going with him. We will make a declaration soon.
“You can see at the declaration today that it was the Obidient Movement logo and that of the ADC. That is to tell you that we are stepping our foot where Obi steps his own foot. There is no ambiguity in that regard.”
