Obidients, across the nation.

Day celebration held peaceful rallies in Lagos, Bauchi, Edo and others,
including London.
Reacting in a statement on Sunday morning, Obi said October

voice.”
Obi maintained that the message was clear and simple – “a
new nigeria is possible!”
He said, “From Lagos, Bauchi, Benin City, Warri, Osogbo,
Kaduna, Uyo, Aba, London, New York and many more, OBIdients made a bold
statement with generally very peaceful rallies.”
Obi said Nigerians of all groups and gender marched in their
millions to show solidarity and to support “our collective vision of a New
Nigeria.”
He thanked the Nigerian youths for their “passion, resolve
and resiliency,” stressing that they have shown the entire world that Nigeria
is ready for a change, and the majority are ready to lead the way.”
The former Anambra State Governor appreciated his supporters
for the sacrifices, saying, “Our labours shall never be in vain and there is no
stopping us now.”
