Listen Southeasterns, in case you don't know.
A commission called Southwest Development Commission (SWDC) was created, signed and approved by President Tinubu in March 2025
The states under them Are Lagos, Oyo, Osun, Ogun, Ondo and Ekiti State with a budget of 140 billion yet to be given to them
Barley one year after creation, the Southwest Development Commission has secured an operational RAIL licence to connect the Six states together through a functional Rail network
Which means, the SWDC is connecting 6 States, and 44 cities of the whole Yoruba nation and they were licenced by Nigeria railway corporation after one year of existing
They're just 1 year in Existence.
Earlier on, President Tinubu also created Southeast Development Commission a year before that of southwest was created
Mark Okoye should either resign or do what is expected of him.
Simple.
Crazy to think it’s a month since this moment. Leandro Trossard’s clutch catalogue in his three and a half years at #Arsenal is incredible, and this came five minutes after Raya’s save. Without doubt the biggest goal of his career; it swung the title race.
So NDC just appointed an avowed hater of Peter Obi and Obidients as communications director. Someone whose entire public profile is spewing hate towards Peter Obi and the Obidient movement.
Choosing such a polarizing figure definitely sends a clear message to the Obidient movement. NDC cannot claim they really are ignorant of this guy’s very public hate for the very head of its ticket and the movement he brings with him to the party.
My conclusion is simple; this appointment isn’t just tone-deaf, it actually begs the question whether NDC is ready to build bridges, expand the party’s reach and ultimately win come January 2027.
Senator Nwoye took out time to counsel him and the team publicly
Imagine N10billion budgetted for CCTV and street light, just like NDDC
APC/APGA Anambra e rats abused him and ridiculed him
Did they heed his good counsel ?
These guys think we all have amnesia
Now, they want us to shush up and watch iberiberically, so that SEDC will become like NDDC
NDDC in almost 3 decades wasted over $40billion awarding street light contracts and chasing shadows , while their major East West Road stood abandoned and uncompleted ...
Every single kobo appropriated to the SEDC belong to Ndi Igbo of the SE
We deserve the best and demand for it
Anyone, who is not pleased with our sincere and honest advocacy and demand for the best for Ala Igbo, can go and hug the nearest transformer
We remain resolute
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.

For and on behalf of Obidients, since the leadership of the Movement is sleeping.
I’m sorry but you political guys are hilarious man. The Theo guy was so toxic and anti-Obi I blocked him. How is he going to feel when he has to do publicity for the same person? This is like that guy Bwala. Man, Thank God for actual jobs and careers that don’t rely on politics
