@peculiarpat1@DunTos16@NigeriaNDCHQ This idiot still fraternizes with the opposition parties. He doesn't have the character and the capacity to work with us. Theo must resign!
Dear @NigeriaNDCHQ,
I wish to respectfully remind everyone in the NDC NWC and the party's overall leadership that the widespread disapproval expressed by members of the Obidient Movement regarding the appointment of Theo is not merely another instance of public outcry that will fade after a few days. The response of the NDC leadership to this matter will speak volumes about how the Obidient Movement is regarded within the party's hierarchy.
I kindly plead that this issue not be waved aside. It should be accorded the priority it rightfully deserves.
As I stated earlier, no sensible man hires his wife's admirer as her bodyguard. Appointing an individual who has consistently insulted Obi and the Obidient Movement is an outright slap in the face of millions of Obidients.
I, for one, firmly believe that Theo still holds onto his publicly known stances toward Mr. Obi and the Obidient Movement. There is no compelling evidence to suggest that he has changed or is even willing to do so.
It would be unfortunate if the party leadership decides to choose Theo over millions of members of the Obidient Movement.
Thank you all for your attention to this matter.
@PivotOladimeji The level of resentment this guy harbors against the Obidient movement and anyone affiliated with Peter Obi is just crazy. You can see how agitated he became when Charles mentioned Aisha Yesufu. We don enta dis one.
The mere fact that Kenneth threatened to divulge information he had access to as the spokesman of the Peter Obi Campaign may well serve as the lowest he could go.
I am 100% certain that if a man who was scheming to gather as much information as he could from an NDC aspirant had access to any truly damaging information on Obi, he would have long since released it to the public, either directly or indirectly.
However, the fact that he even threatened to misuse information he may have obtained on a professional basis could be his biggest setback in politics. Everyone dealing with him politically will keep this in the back of their minds.
While Atiku may not be his current target, nothing prevents Kenneth from doing to him exactly what he is currently doing to Obi. This speaks volumes about his character.
So let me get this straight? I am meant to RT or support tweets coming out of that stupid NDC account, knowing it is coming from Theo?
God forbid!
Make I go block that rubbish
@Samzonal@TheoAbuAgada@HighChiefOkoro@renoomokri You're not ready for a change. This deeply speaks about your character, and your propensity to be bought by any group, no matter how vile their cause. For weak principled people like you, it's all about putting food on the table. It's a shame!
PRESS STATEMENT
OBIDIENT MOVEMENT REJECTS THE APPOINTMENT OF THEO ABU AGADA AND DEMANDS ACCOUNTABILITY FROM NDC LEADERSHIP AND TANKO YUNUSA
The attention of the Obidient Movement has been drawn to the appointment of Theo Abu Agada as Director of New Media and Strategic Communications by the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC.
We condemn this appointment in the strongest possible terms.
This appointment is not just insensitive. It is a direct insult to their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, the Obidient Movement, and the millions of Nigerians who have stood firmly behind a movement built on competence, character, justice, accountability, and people-centred politics.
A party that claims to value the Obidient Movement cannot turn around and appoint a man whose public record is filled with repeated attacks, insults, and open hostility towards their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and Obidients. You cannot disrespect the largest support base within your political structure and still pretend you are building unity.
Theo Abu Agada has publicly described supporters of their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in insulting terms. He has questioned Peter Obi’s capacity, portrayed him as a threat to free speech, accused his supporters with reckless language, and repeatedly made statements that show clear contempt for the same movement NDC now expects to energise its public communication.
Even worse, he once claimed that Peter Obi had “unleashed his IPOB supporters on Nigerians.” That kind of statement goes beyond political disagreement. It is a dangerous attempt to link their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and Obidients to IPOB, and by extension paint the movement with the brush of extremism and terrorism. No serious political party that respects Peter Obi or the Obidient Movement should reward such a person with a sensitive communications position.
Can NDC appoint someone who has publicly insulted and disparaged Rabiu Kwankwaso or the Kwankwasiyya Movement into a sensitive communications position and expect Kwankwasiyya supporters to clap for it? Can NDC reward someone who has repeatedly attacked Kwankwaso and still claim it respects his movement?
If the answer is no, then why does NDC think it can do this to their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and the Obidient Movement?
The NDC leadership must explain how such a person passed through any serious political vetting process for a sensitive communications role. New Media and Strategic Communications is not a decoration. It is the public voice of a party. Appointing someone with a history of hostility towards their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and the Obidient Movement into that office sends a very clear message, and the message is disrespect.
This also raises serious questions about the role and effectiveness of Tanko Yunusa as the leader of the Obidient Movement.
What exactly is Tanko doing?
In the Labour Party, he was always seen around the leadership, taking pictures and standing close to Peter Obi, yet the same Labour Party repeatedly disrespected Peter Obi and the movement he was supposed to represent.
In ADC, the same pattern repeated itself. The Obidient Movement was treated with disregard, and its value was undermined.
Now in NDC, the same thing is happening again. The party leadership continues to disregard the Obidient Movement, even though Obidients remain the largest, loudest, and most active stakeholder group in this political alignment. That disregard has now reached their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, directly through the appointment of someone whose public record shows open hostility towards him.
So we ask again: what exactly is Tanko doing?
Is he there to defend the movement, or to take pictures?
Is he there to protect Peter Obi’s political leverage, or to stand in rooms like a mannequin?
Is he there to represent Obidients, or to lock comment sections whenever people ask uncomfortable questions?
Tanko Yunusa must answer a simple question: what the hell is he doing?
The Obidient Movement cannot continue to be treated as a crowd for rallies, online engagement, and political optics, while those who openly insult the movement are put in strategic positions where they will continue the insults.
We demand the following:
1. The immediate reversal of Theo Abu Agada’s appointment.
2. A public explanation from the NDC leadership on how this appointment was approved.
3. A formal apology to their presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and the Obidient Movement.
4. A clear commitment from NDC that no individual with a public record of hostility towards Peter Obi or the Obidient Movement will be placed in any sensitive strategic communication role.
5. A full explanation from Tanko Yunusa on what he is doing as leader of the Obidient Movement and why this pattern of disrespect keeps repeating itself under his watch.
The Obidient Movement is not a spare tyre. We are not political furniture. We are not a movement to be used when convenient and disrespected when power is being shared.
If NDC wants the energy, credibility, reach, and sacrifice of Obidients, then it must treat the movement with respect.
Anything short of that is unacceptable.

Prophet of Thoughts
For and on behalf of Obidients, since the leadership of the Movement is sleeping.
@JLemon007@zico14390714@PivotOladimeji At this point, nobody cares. It's obvious that the NDC doesn't care about our candidate. Dem just wan use our heads and run us street.

Start gathering your facts, evidences and money together rather than grandstanding on social media and TV
