PRESS STATEMENT MY APPOINTMENT AS NATIONAL COORDINATOR OF THE OBIDIENT MOVEMENT: A CALL TO NIGERIAN YOUTHS TO RISE, ORGANISE AND RECLAIM THEIR FUTURE Nigeria has reached a point where silence is complicity and inaction is surrender. The time to act is NOW! I sincerely thank His Excellency, Mr Peter Obi, and the leadership and members of the Obidient Movement for the confidence reposed in me through my appointment as National Coordinator. I accept this responsibility with humility and a firm commitment to the mission ahead. I am not accepting a title; I am accepting the responsibility to organise a generation and strengthen a movement whose mission is bigger than any individual. TO NIGERIAN YOUTHS: YOUR COUNTRY IS CALLING! How much longer must Nigerians endure hunger, unemployment, poverty, collapsing businesses and bad governance while corruption, waste and impunity thrive? Nigeria does not belong to politicians. It belongs to all of us, particularly the young generation whose future must not be sacrificed to the interests of a political elite. Our frustration is justified, but anger without organisation achieves little. We must move beyond hashtags and complaints to organised, peaceful and determined democratic action. We must become informed, active citizens who demand accountability and defend democracy. OUR VISION: FROM MOVEMENT TO NATIONAL FORCE The Obidient Movement represents the aspirations of millions who believe that competence, character, compassion and accountability must define leadership. Mr Peter Obi has inspired Nigerians to believe that a different country is possible, but rebuilding Nigeria requires organised citizens, not one individual. My priority is to build a functional, disciplined and inclusive structure across every state, LGA, ward, community and polling unit. Our direction will rest on five pillars: ORGANISE: Build functional structures with clear responsibilities and measurable results. UNITE: Overcome internal divisions and put the mission above personal interests. LISTEN: Give youths, women, professionals, workers and ordinary Nigerians a meaningful voice. COMMUNICATE: Establish coordinated, professional and truthful communication to counter misinformation. MOBILISE: Turn supporters into active citizens through civic education, voter participation and grassroots engagement. 2027: DEFEND OUR DEMOCRACY! Reports of suspected AI-generated photographs in INEC's preliminary voter register and alleged irregularities in voter and polling-unit figures demand urgent investigation. One reported case alleges that a polling unit associated with Governor Monday Okpebholo increased from 397 registered voters in 2024 to 4,783 in 2026. If these records are verified as comparable for the same polling unit, this discrepancy demands a transparent explanation. INEC must provide answers and submit the register to an independent forensic audit. These allegations must not be treated as proof of electoral fraud, but neither should they be dismissed without investigation. We must prepare in advance with voter education, trained polling-unit volunteers, election monitoring, proper documentation, and lawful defence of the people's votes. The 2027 election must reflect the genuine choices of Nigerians, not manipulated records or electoral impunity. UNITY, RECOGNITION AND ACCOUNTABILITY I recognise and appreciate Dr Yunusa Tanko for his dedication and contributions to the Movement. I am not coming to replace anyone but to work with everyone. No individual owns this Movement, and nobody should be bigger than its purpose. Leadership must be measured by service, commitment and results. Every coordinator, volunteer and supporter has a role to play in this national assignment. MY CHARGE TO NIGERIAN YOUTHS If not us, who? If not now, when? Reject the normalisation of poverty, ethnic and religious divisions, political manipulation and the sale of your conscience. Your PVC, your voice and your participation matter.

Calabar was truly electric today! The energy, warmth and beautiful reception that greeted Mr Peter Obi and Senator @KwankwasoRM at the town hall meeting were remarkable. Mr @PeterObi return from the United States, accompanied by his lovely wife, brought an even more special dimension to the ongoing town hall engagements across the country. It was a beautiful experience, filled with renewed enthusiasm, meaningful conversations and the unmistakable spirit of civic participation. Unfortunately, after the town hall, some suspected APC thugs reportedly attempted to attack one of the vehicles in the convoy. They apparently picked the wrong day and the wrong people for that adventure. They were firmly resisted and, by all accounts, left with a rather painful lesson. Those who came looking for trouble certainly did not have the last laugh! But beyond the drama, political thuggery and intimidation must have no place in our democracy. Nigerians deserve to engage, assemble and express themselves without fear. Enough of this nonsense! Dr. Mo National Coordinator, Obidient Movement (Global)

Thugs are trying to attack our convoy.

Delta, are you ready?
