Happy Birthday Daddy 🥳🎉
@PeterObi I am very excited to read this from His excellency @PeterObi , sir my team organises a conference of more than a 1000 participants on skill empowerment summit and personal development. It will be an honour to have you speak to us, this year. Our xpage is @steadyyourshot .
Dear beloved sports-loving Nigerian youths,
After watching the performances of Davido, Burna Boy, and Rema at the opening of the 2026 World Cup—at a time when Nigeria, the giant of Africa, is absent—I felt a measure of consolation. This was reinforced by the fact that many Nigerians playing for clubs worldwide are representing other countries. Felix Nmecha, for instance, set a record by scoring the fastest goal at six minutes for Germany. I write to you therefore, knowing that this country belongs to you, the youth.
You are more of stakeholders in Nigeria’s future than I am. I am 64 years old; by God’s grace, much of my journey is behind me, while yours lies ahead.
It is therefore imperative that you rise to the challenge by obtaining your PVC, your most powerful tool for driving the change you desire.
In the last three years alone, over 15 million Nigerians have turned 18—enough to decide who becomes President, Governor, Senator, Member of the House, or Local Government Chairman. Indeed, enough to shape the nation’s future.
I know many of you are sceptical about politics and political parties. I understand why, but scepticism must not become surrender.
You do not need to belong to any party or wait for anyone to organise you. Organise yourselves in your streets, campuses, communities, workplaces, churches, mosques, and social groups. Mobilise, debate, demand accountability, and take part in choosing those you wish to entrust with leadership.
If you are organised and wish to hear directly from me, invite me. I will come and share my plans for you and our nation.
Do not sit on the sidelines while others decide your future.
I appeal to you to register and vote. Your vote can shape who becomes the next President of our country.
My young friends, this is your country. Take it back.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
"The condition of our nation and the urgent need to rescue Nigeria, informed my decision to leave ADC for NDC."
Yesterday, I formally joined the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), alongside my dear brother, Engr. Dr Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, with one clear purpose: to continue the struggle for a new Nigeria built on justice, competence, accountability, and compassion for the ordinary Nigerian.
As I stated yesterday, this decision was not made out of anger, personal ambition, or convenience. It came after deep reflection on the present condition of our nation and the urgent need to rescue Nigeria from the dangerous path it is currently heading.
Over the years, I have remained steadfast in my conviction that politics should never be about individuals, positions, or personal gain. It must be about the people, especially the millions of Nigerians who today can no longer afford necessities, whose businesses are collapsing, whose children are losing hope, and whose future is becoming increasingly uncertain.
I left the ADC for the same reason I left the Labour Party: the severe, orchestrated litigation and internal crises deliberately designed to ensure that I, alongside many other notable individuals, do not effectively participate in the electoral process. I sincerely appreciate and remain deeply grateful to the Leadership of ADC for the opportunity to work together in pursuit of a better Nigeria. I am particularly grateful to ADC Chairman Senator David Mark for his exceptional Leadership. I also deeply appreciate my Leader and elder brother YE, Atiku Abubakar, as well as other respected leaders within the party.
As we join the NDC, I sincerely appeal to the Nigerian Government against the encouragement of unresolved litigations and the infusion of crises within political parties. Democracy must never become a weapon against the people. A healthy democracy thrives on strong institutions, credible alternatives, and the freedom of citizens to make choices without intimidation, manipulation, or fear. Opposition parties must not be weakened or destroyed, because when democracy loses balance, the people ultimately suffer.
Nigeria today is passing through one of the most difficult periods in its history. Poverty is rising. Hunger is widespread. Insecurity continues to threaten lives and livelihoods. Businesses are shutting down daily. Our young people are becoming discouraged, and many citizens have lost faith in the system. At a time like this, leadership must be driven not by propaganda or division, but by competence, capacity, character, and compassion.
Our decision to join the NDC is therefore not an abandonment of values, but a continuation of the same mission we have always stood for: building a Nigeria where leadership is about service, where public resources are managed responsibly, where institutions function independently, and where every Nigerian, regardless of tribe, religion, region, or social status, can live with dignity, security, and hope.
I remain committed to working with all Nigerians of goodwill across political, ethnic, and religious lines. The task before us is bigger than any individual or political party. It is about the future of our children and the survival of our dear nation.
I thank Nigerians, especially our youths and women, for remaining peaceful, resilient, and hopeful despite the enormous challenges confronting the country. I urge you not to lose faith in Nigeria. Nations do not change because people surrender to hopelessness; they change because people continue to believe, continue to sacrifice, and continue to stand for what is right.
A new Nigeria is still POssible. -PO

PRESS STATEMENT
27th of March 2026
Obidient Movement Welcomes Nationwide Mobilisation Efforts, Encourages Broad-Based Citizen Participation
The Obidient Movement acknowledges the growing wave of citizen-led mobilisation across the country, including the initiative by the Village Boys Movement (VBM) tagged the “2 Million Man March and ADC Registration Drive” in support of His Excellency, Peter Obi.
This development reflects a deepening political consciousness among Nigerians and an increasing willingness by citizens to organise, participate, and shape the democratic process in a more structured and impactful manner.
Following engagements by the Village Boys Movement across national and state levels, the Obidient Movement recognises the importance of such initiatives in strengthening grassroots participation and translating public sentiment into coordinated civic and political action.
The first phase of the march is scheduled for 28th March 2026 across Abia, Adamawa, Anambra, Bayelsa, Ebonyi, Plateau, Jigawa, Kaduna, Ondo, Ogun, Oyo, Enugu, Kogi, and Edo States, with subsequent phases expected to extend to major political and commercial centres nationwide.
The Obidient Movement encourages its members, supporters, and all citizens who share the vision of a more accountable and people-centred Nigeria to actively engage in peaceful and lawful civic activities that advance democratic participation and national renewal.
This moment goes beyond any single event or group. It represents a broader opportunity to build a disciplined, inclusive, and results-oriented movement capable of driving meaningful political change.
Central to this effort is the need to strengthen political structures, deepen citizen participation, and ensure that democratic processes reflect the true will of the people. Increased political engagement, including party registration and grassroots organisation, remains critical to achieving these outcomes.
As conversations continue around leadership, equity, and national direction, the Obidient Movement reiterates its commitment to principles of competence, integrity, and service, and aligns with all constructive efforts aimed at advancing these values within Nigeria’s political landscape.
The Movement also calls on political institutions and stakeholders to respond with responsibility and foresight to the growing demand for credible leadership and inclusive governance.
Ultimately, sustainable change will require coordinated action, strategic organisation, and long-term commitment from citizens across all regions.
The Obidient Movement remains focused on supporting initiatives that strengthen democratic participation and contribute to building a Nigeria that works for all.

*OBIDIENT MOVEMENT RESPONSE TO JUSTICE SALAMI'S RECENT COMMENTS ON PETER OBI*
Fellow Obidients,
We have seen the recent comments credited to retired Justice Isa Salami claiming that our principal, His Excellency Peter Obi, was "unqualified" to contest the 2023 presidential election under the Labour Party.
As a movement built on truth, justice, and the rule of law, we must set the records straight and not allow this narrative to mislead the public.
*THE FACTS OF THE MATTER:*
1. The Supreme Court Has Ruled: The highest court in the land has already settled all matters regarding Peter Obi's candidacy and his membership in the Labour Party. The issue of his qualification was thoroughly litigated, and the courts did not disqualify him on the grounds of party membership.
2. Internal Party Affairs: It is a well-established legal principle in Nigeria that the membership of a political party is strictly an internal affair of that party. The Labour Party accepted Peter Obi, granted him a waiver, and submitted his name to INEC. No external body or individual has the locus standi to dictate who a party registers as its member.
3. The Timing of the Comments: It is curious that these comments are being made now, long after the elections have concluded and the judicial processes have been exhausted. We must ask: what is the motive behind trying to rewrite history and cast doubt on a candidacy that inspired millions of Nigerians?
4. Focus on the Real Issues: Justice Salami himself highlighted the "inadequacy and incompetence" of some judges and the "tragedy" of the current judicial system. Instead of focusing on a settled matter regarding Peter Obi, the focus should be on reforming the judiciary to ensure that justice is served to the Nigerian people, a core pillar of the New Nigeria we are fighting for.
5. Getting the Facts Right: Peter Obi never partook in the PDP primaries. It is unfortunate that the judge did not get his facts right before going to the press.
6. A Track Record of Integrity: We are talking about an individual who built private businesses successfully, with no criminal record against him. As governor, he left 75 billion Naira in the coffers of the Anambra State Government. He has no forgery or drug-related issues associated with him. Yet, the judge preferred to celebrate criminality over credibility. This is the level to which Nigeria has descendes.Very sad indeed!
OUR STAND:
Peter Obi remains the symbol of hope for a New Nigeria. His candidacy in 2023 was valid, legitimate, and overwhelmingly supported by millions of Nigerians who are tired of the status quo.
We will not be distracted by retrospective opinions that hold no legal weight. Our eyes remain on the prize: building a nation where competence, character, and capacity lead the way.
Let us continue to stay focused, peaceful, and resolute.
A New Nigeria is still POssible!

Prosperity cannot come by taxing Poverty
As I travel the world and meet leaders who have transformed their nations, one lesson is clear: lasting economic and social progress begins with national consensus. Transformative leaders—those who successfully unite their people around a shared vision—share a defining quality: honesty. Government must be transparent and truthful because citizens deserve nothing less from those who lead them. True leaders do not exploit their people to enrich themselves and a few cronies; they build trust, unity, and shared purpose - the foundation of sustainable progress.
It is against this standard of honest leadership that Nigeria’s current approach to taxation must be measured. If taxation is to function as a genuine social contract, it must be rooted in sincerity, fairness, and concern for the welfare of the people. Every tax policy should be clearly explained, including its impact on incomes and its expected contribution to national development. Without this transparency, taxation becomes a tool of confusion and burden rather than a mechanism for growth and development.
Nigeria must rethink taxation if it is serious about economic growth, national unity, and shared prosperity. The purpose of sound fiscal policy is not merely to raise revenue; it is to make the people wealthier so that the nation itself becomes stronger. Yet today, Nigerians are asked to pay taxes without clarity, explanation, or visible benefit.
The solution begins with empowering small and medium-sized enterprises in every community. When small businesses thrive, jobs are created, incomes rise, and the tax base expands naturally. You cannot tax your way out of poverty - you must produce your way out of it.
This makes the ongoing tax fraud saga particularly alarming. For the first time in Nigeria’s history, a tax law has reportedly been forged. The National Assembly itself has admitted that the version gazetted is not what was passed into law. Yet citizens are being asked to pay higher taxes under this manipulated framework—without transparency, without explanation, and without corresponding benefits.
There is no virtue in celebrating increased government revenue while the people grow poorer. Taxing poverty does not create wealth; it deepens hardship. Any tax system that makes citizens poorer violates the fundamental principles of good governance and sound fiscal policy.
Nigeria needs a fair, lawful, and people-centred tax system—one that supports production, rewards enterprise, protects the vulnerable, and restores trust between government and citizens. Only then can taxation become a true tool for unity, growth, and shared prosperity. -PO
