Peter Obi 2027 presidential bid kicks off
Peter Obi political support group, the Obidient Movement, has commenced ramping up support and building political grassroots structures for his 2027 presidential bid.
Yunusa Tanko, national coordinator of the ‘Obidient Movement,’ says as the focus shifts to grassroots organization, Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 candidate, can become Nigeria’s president in 2027.
He said this on Saturday at a one-day symposium, themed, ‘Repositioning the Obidient Movement for Greater Impact,’ organised by the Obidient Movement and support groups at the All Saints Cathedral Auditorium in Onitsha, Anambra State.
Tanko said the electoral malpractice in the 2023 election denied Obi victory, noting that Obi has the potential to emerge as president in 2027 if everybody puts their acts together.
His words: “We are dedicated to promoting good governance and accountability by bringing together key stakeholders to discuss Nigeria’s future.
