Aisha Yesufu reveals who created the Obidient movement –

The Obidient movement was not started by Peter Obi, the party’s flagbearer in the previous general election, according to Aisha Yesufu, a member of the Labour Party 2023 presidential campaign team.

According to Yesufu, the aftermath of the EndSARS killings led to the formation of the Obidient movement.

She emphasised that the Obidient movement, of which Obi is a beneficiary, was formed due to the collective rage of Nigerian youth.

Yesufu posted on X, saying: “Nobody created Obidient movement. After the #EndSARS killing by APC government many became interested in politics since they were mocked and told to vote those who killed the protesters. There was a collective anger to vote out APC. Peter Obi was a beneficiary of that collective anger of the people.

“When he made his intentions to run for presidency many with that collective anger supported him and from there the name was coined to fit the candidate following the habit of naming supporters after a person supported in Nigeria. There was already a movement before the name OBIdient was coined.”
