Obi media office to presidency: Leadership is about accountability, not hurling insults at critics
The Peter Obi Media Reach (POMR) has faulted the presidency’s response to the call for President Bola Tinubu to resign, saying leadership is defined by accountability rather than attacks on critics.
On Monday, Obi, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, asked Tinubu to step down from office over the “monumental failure” in governance.
“An advise to take it back movement people.... Sowore’s bail application hearing is tomorrow 24th June 2026, as you guys are coming to show solidarity to a comrade please make men use their head,these people know what they are doing don't give them reason, the game is the game”
VeryDarkMan advises Sowore’s soldiers
The OK Movement joins His Excellency. Peter Obi and Millions of Nigerians in calling for the resignation of President Tinubu. Our nation cannot continue to endure the consequences of ineffective leadership and poor governance.
Nigeria deserves competent, accountable leadership.
Nigeria must be OK.
SOWORE BEING SENT TO PRISON: A DANGEROUS REGRESSION FOR OUR DEMOCRACY
I have received, with deep concern, the news of the court’s remand of citizen activist Omoyele Sowore in Kuje Prison.
While the judiciary remains the ultimate arbiter of justice, we must consistently guard against any trend that gives the appearance of state institutions being weaponised to systematically stifle dissent, muzzle the press, or shrink the legitimate space for civic engagement in Nigeria.
A thriving democracy does not survive on the silencing of opposing voices; rather, it is anchored on the robust protection of fundamental human rights, most notably the freedoms of expression and peaceful assembly, as enshrined in our Constitution. Moreover, our society is already strained by insecurity and biting economic hardship; therefore, deliberate steps should be taken, even by the courts, to avoid inflaming the situation.
When we begin to treat citizen critics, activists, and journalists as threats to state survival rather than as partners in building accountability, we signal a dangerous slide toward authoritarianism. Our current challenges, ranging from economic strain to internal security vulnerabilities, require inclusive dialogue and cohesive nation-building, not the incarceration of those who demand a better society.
I urge the relevant authorities to ensure that the rule of law is strictly adhered to, that Mr. Sowore’s constitutional rights are fully protected, and that our security and judicial institutions are used solely for the impartial administration of justice. We cannot build a New Nigeria if we continue to undermine the very democratic structures meant to protect us all. -PO

The Presidency appears to be upset because the presidential candidate of the NDC, Peter Obi, called for the resignation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
It is important to understand that many of the criticisms being made today are not new to Nigerian politics. Similar criticisms and demands were made by opposition figures, including Bola Tinubu himself, during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
It is also important for Nigerians to remember that the current President was one of the leading figures of the opposition movement that challenged the government of the day and ultimately contributed to a historic political transition.
That is why we must continue to speak up, peacefully and lawfully, in pursuit of a better Nigeria.
We should not allow those who exercised their right to criticize previous governments to deny others that same right today.
A healthy democracy thrives on accountability, constructive criticism, and the freedom of citizens to express their views without fear.
The journey toward a better Nigeria must continue.
Rufai Oseni went hard on Bayo Onanuga and the Presidency on Arise News this morning.
Was the APC also being childish when it called for Goodluck Jonathan’s resignation? Was the APC childish when it pushed for a parallel government during Jonathan’s administration?

Many Gen Z folks are finally waking up and seeing the truth. why some still choose to stay blind and stupid.
I’ve said it repeatedly: Bola Tinubu have no pathway to victory in the 2027 presidential election.
“Why’re they k!dnapp!ng him ? He’s not a crim!nal, he’s not a k!dnapp£r, if them born your fada well, come outside, we go finish you, you know your face, they k!dnapp£d Sowore”
Serious wahala in Abuja early this morning, Sowore supporters are outside again 🙆🏼♂️
I arrived in Sokoto today as part of our ongoing consultative engagements, for a strategic meeting with the leadership of the NDC in the state.
The visit is aimed at strengthening and expanding the party’s structure across Sokoto State, while also kick-starting preparations for the success of the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket and all NDC candidates in the upcoming elections.
The meeting was well attended by state party executives, and dedicated members, who reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to the growth and victory of the party. - RMK
Video📹; Today’s episode in the federal high court with SOWORE is just another proof honestly that this country lacks direction.
Even the local vigilante is now more functional than our revered @OfficialDSSNG …what an absolute shame!
The judiciary??? A waste!
God help us🇳🇬
