Dr. Yunusa Tanko, National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement Worldwide, has issued a rallying call to supporters in Akwa Ibom State to organize and channel their energies into the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as the political vehicle for victory in the 2027 general elections.
In a statement released during ongoing mobilization efforts in Uyo, Tanko emphasized the need to prevent a repeat of alleged irregularities from the 2023 polls, warning that votes must be counted correctly or those responsible “will be counted.” He urged Obidients—supporters of former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi—to transition from passion to structured action.
“My dear brothers and sisters of the Obidient Movement in Akwa Ibom State, I bring you warm greetings and unwavering hope,” Tanko said. “From the creeks to the cities, from every village square to every university campus, from every market and professional circle—the time has come to arise in your numbers. The time has come to move from passion to structure, from structure to strategy, and from strategy to victory.”
Tanko described the movement as a broader push for a “new Nigeria” characterized by discipline, competence, compassion, and accountability, aimed at restoring dignity to leadership and empowering the people. He called on coordinators, volunteers, youth leaders, women, and elders to strengthen ward and polling unit structures, register voters, and defend ballots.
“As we consolidate our political strength, we must strategically channel our collective energy into the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as our vehicle for transformation and victory in 2027,” he stated. “This is not just a political alignment—it is a strategic movement toward winning power to serve the people.”
He stressed unity and action: “Let no one sit on the sidelines. Let no one say, ‘My voice does not matter.’ When we move together, we are unstoppable. When we organize, we win. When we vote, we transform nations.”
Tanko concluded with a focus on Obi’s candidacy: “Collectively, we will ensure that Peter Obi becomes President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, because he has the energy, integrity, and capacity to build a new Nigeria. Arise and shine, for a New Nigeria is Possible.”
