Dear Obidients,

The 2023 presidential election which took place on the 25th and 26th of February has come although may not have gone. Enthusiastically, we went out in numbers to vote for our preferred candidate against all odds.

Over 4months ago, I got a call from Ekene, he was stuck in a deportation camp in India.
Life had hurt him so bad, in his desperation he reached out to me as many Nigerians do.

I quickly heard Ekene’s story and spent weeks doing the investigation. I started the advocacy through interviews with him and I called on NIDCOM to come to his rescue but I was shocked at the response.

After calling out NiDCOM for not reaching out to Ekene after sending his number to them.

The started spinning the story against Ekene to raise doubt and discredit my work with him.

They even released his personal expired travel documents because they were shocked that I called them out and they didnt want to accept responsibility.
I continued my work and i facilitated a new travel document for him and a good Nigerian helped in raising his flight ticket money.

Since I reported the matter, and after some email exchanges NiDCOM practically abandoned Ekene, as I hve not received any update from NIDCOM on Ekene.

I kept on pushing and I can confirm to you Ekene is back in Nigeria. I worked tirelessly to make this happen after those that ought to help failed. I will like to thank the Nigerian Embassy in india. I think government should help them, India is a big country and it’s difficult to reach Nigerians all over India.

Most Nigerians will never understand the personal sacrifices we made to make Ekene come back home.

I give glory to God, I am glad we can help Ekene, but there are over 100 more Nigerians in the deportation camp in India suffering and in some cases tortured

Can we all beg government and NIDCOM to do their job.

NIDCOM keeps claiming that they are facilitating with the embassy in India to get these Nigerians Amnesty but if they truly try they could get these people back home

Not all of them have issues with the authorities in India some just need money for flight and final clearance.

Let’s save this country and our fellow Nigerians

Update: We are glad to announce that the United States is already assessing a potential post-Tinubu scenario ahead of Nigeria’s upcoming presidential election. In our opinion, it has become clear to everyone in D.C. that Nigerian President Bola Tinubu (@officialABAT) cannot win the upcoming election unless undemocratic tactics (rigging) are employed by the Tinubu government.

Our objective now is to ensure that the United States communicates clearly to President #Tinubu and his allies at @inecnigeria that it is monitoring developments and that there will be consequences for any actions that silence the will of the Nigerian people and adversely affect U.S. interests in the region.

Let us be clear: the United States is not taking sides. The next Nigerian president will be decided by the Nigerian people, and the Nigerian people alone.

ACCEPTANCE OF NEW ASSIGNMENT AS POLITICAL ADVISER, NORTHERN NIGERIA

His Excellency, Mr Peter Obi,
Leaders, Stakeholders and Members of the Obidient Movement
Obidient House
Life Camp, Abuja

Your Excellency, Distinguished Leaders and Fellow Obidients,

With deep gratitude and a renewed sense of purpose, I write to formally accept my new assignment as Political Adviser, Northern Nigeria, to His Excellency, Mr Peter Obi.

I am honoured by the confidence placed in me. As we approach the 2027 general elections, the North remains central to our collective aspiration for a New Nigeria. In this role, I will contribute to political engagement, mobilisation and coordination efforts across the region. I will work alongside our structures, stakeholders, communities and supporters to help deepen engagement, strengthen our presence and broaden the base of our movement in furtherance of the political project of our leader, Mr Peter Obi.

Building on a strong foundation

This new assignment builds on the work we have done together over the past two years, during which I had the privilege of serving as National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement.

A central focus of that period was strengthening the Movement's organisational structure and institutional framework. We established a National Advisory Council to deepen strategic engagement and to move the Movement beyond election-cycle activism toward a lasting institution.

Together, we achieved significant milestones, including:

- A truly national presence: the Movement now operates in all 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
- **Regional leadership: we developed five Regional Coordinators and one Regional Collegiate Council.
- Structures down to the grassroots:** we built coordination structures across the 37 state coordination areas and all 774 Local Government Areas.
- Digital mobilisation: we developed https://t.co/vpVLNed61E, a platform for mobilisation, engagement and recruitment with the capacity to support the mobilisation of millions of Nigerians.
- Protecting the vote: we developed an IReV-related election-results monitoring system designed to provide real-time updates from polling units across the country.
- Community engagement: we strengthened grassroots structures and expanded the Movement's engagement with communities, stakeholders and support groups across Nigeria.

These are only some of the milestones achieved through the collective efforts of our leaders, coordinators, volunteers and supporters. Whatever progress we made was a collective effort, and whatever challenges we encountered gave all of us important lessons. That foundation will serve as a strong springboard for the work ahead in the North.

Continuity in national coordination

This new role will require my full attention and presence across Northern Nigeria. I am therefore pleased that Dr Moses Paul (Dr Mo) now takes up the role of National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement. He will give the national coordination the daily attention, energy and inclusiveness that this critical period demands.

Dr Mo has been part of the Movement's journey from the start. He has shown commitment to civic engagement, grassroots mobilisation, communication and the broader struggle for a New Nigeria. I congratulate him warmly and have every confidence that his experience and understanding of the Movement will serve us well as we enter an even more demanding phase of our work. He has my full support, and I urge every leader, coordinator and volunteer to give him the same.

Appreciation

I sincerely thank His Excellency, Mr Peter Obi, for his trust and leadership. I also appreciate every leader, volunteer, coordinator, supporter and ordinary Nigerian who has worked with me over these two years. Your sacrifice, commitment and belief in a better Nigeria made everything we achieved possible.

Our shared mission

Another 28th of September in my life—a special 🎂, but also a reminder of our commitment to the struggle to make Nigeria a better country.

Today, we are in the ancient city of Sokoto, building the momentum for a New Nigeria that is POssible and OK.

I sincerely thank everyone for your kind messages, prayers, and best wishes. I deeply appreciate you all. 🙏

@channelstv SeunO didn't ask the hard question. If petrol is more expensive in the US than in Nigeria, what social facilities are available to a US citizen compared with a Nigerian?

[Akan Akpan @akanuniverse]

@BO_Mayor @GovWike I hope you won't bury your head in shame when 2.0 fails. Those who celebrate Wike are as foolish as he is. A wise man would not brag about rigging an election.

@ARISEtv That's the smart way to answer the question. If you understand, you understand.
