Obidients Have Suffered Attacks From Those We Respected as Civic Leaders- Obi

Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi, has encouraged his supporters across the country not to give up in the face of what he called vexatious attacks and indignation put on their ways.
Obi, in his address to his supporters, said the attacks have even come from those hitherto take as “civic leaders.”
In his Easter message to them, Obi said they should regard the litany of attacks as part of the price to be paid for a new Nigeria which he said is “POssible.”
“Datti and I are painfully mindful that for the mere reason of being OBIdient, most of you have suffered vituperations, physical attacks, loss of rights and privileges, hateful trolls, indignities and vexatious fighting words, even from some of those we long regarded as civic leaders and conscience of our nation. Please bear such attacks as the sacrifices that we are all required to make in order to create a New Nigeria, where justice, equity, fairness, love and prosperity shall reign,” Obi said Monday morning
Saying the alleged efforts to de-market the Obidient Movement will fail, Obi assured that he and his Vice Presidential Candidate Senator Yusuff Datti-Ahmed, are fully with them.
“Be assured that Datti and I are with you, and that the ongoing unfortunate orchestrated efforts to demarket and delegitimize the OBIdient Movement will fail. We are fully structured and have remained focused and steadfast in addressing the ills in our nation; while underpinning the supremacy of our Constitution and imperatives of the rule of law. Do not relent; and do not be lured into unnecessary conflicts. Be assured that in the fullness of time, our mission to rescue Nigeria from those engaged in State Capture will come to fruition,” Obi stated
Reminding his followers to always be law abiding, he said his movement would always use the legal means in pursuit of the alleged electoral injustices perpetrated against his people.
He said, “We are also using all lawful and peaceful means allowed under our laws and constitution to reclaim our mandate to create a New Nigeria that is POssible. Therefore, in all your actions and inactions, I continue to implore you to be law abiding, respectful and peaceful.
“In all you do, always remember those immortal words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jnr, that “The true measure of a man is not how he behaves in moments of comfort and convenience, but how he stands at times of controversy and challenges”. A New Nigeria is Indeed POssible.”
