The Obidient Movement has described the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, as a talk-and-do leader.
National Coordinator of the movement, Yunusa Tanko, made this remark on Sunday in an interview on Arise Television, noting that Obi’s record as Anambra state governor proves it.
He was reacting to the emergence of Obi as the NDC presidential candidate ahead of the next year’s general elections.
DAILY POST reports that the NDC on Saturday declared Obi as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections.
Tanko said, “Peter Obi is different because he doesn’t just make promises, he keeps them and wants Nigerians to hold him accountable.
“His record as governor reflects that commitment. His pledge to serve only four years was publicly affirmed at the party level, and the decision was also documented during the party’s affirmation process, including a resolution on zoning after his term.
“For supporters, this is a clear signal that what he promises is what he intends to do, and it reinforces his message of accountability and trust in leadership.”
Following his official confirmation as the NDC presidential candidate, Obi thereafter unveiled former Kano State governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso as his running mate.
