Supporters of Peter Obi, the Labour Party's 2023 presidential candidate, are ramping up mobilization efforts for the upcoming 2027 elections under the banner of the Obidient Movement. This initiative aims to consolidate their political power and avoid the challenges that marred the previous election. The movement's recent activities have focused on the city of Uyo in Akwa Ibom State, where they are seeking to strengthen their base and support through the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as a platform for the presidential race.

Yunusa Tanko, the National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement Worldwide, has emphasized the importance of preparing adequately for the 2027 elections. In his statement, he highlighted the group's commitment to establishing a robust organizational structure at the ward and local government levels. This strategic groundwork is viewed as essential for ensuring that every vote is counted accurately, directly addressing the grievances of supporters from the last election cycle, where they felt their votes were not adequately reflected in the results.

The call to action from the Obidient Movement also serves as a rallying cry for civic engagement and electoral integrity, suggesting that they will be vigilant in defending their votes against any potential discrepancies. This mobilization not only signifies Peter Obi's persistent influence on the political scene but also reflects a broader push within the electorate for accountability and transparency in Nigeria's electoral processes as the nation looks ahead to the significant political season in 2027.
