In a show of solidarity and enthusiasm, thousands of supporters of Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, gathered in Abia State to mark his 64th birthday. The mega rally, dubbed "One Million Man-March for Obi," was held simultaneously in Umuahia, Aba, Ohafia, and Uzuakoli towns, demonstrating the widespread support for Obi's leadership style and vision for Nigeria.

A Call for Unity and Sacrifice

During the rally, Dr. Chibuzor Obiesili, Abia State Chairman of the Organising Committee, made a passionate appeal to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to shelve his rumored presidential ambition in 2027 and support Obi's bid for the African American Congress (ADC) presidential ticket. Obiesili acknowledged Atiku's contributions to Nigeria's progress but emphasized that Obi's leadership style, integrity, and national appeal make him the best candidate to lead Nigeria forward.

"Atiku has tried his best for Nigeria, but his greatest sacrifice and gift to Nigeria will be to support Obi get the ADC presidential ticket in 2027 so that Nigeria can move forward," Obiesili said. This call for unity and sacrifice underscores the "Obidients" movement's commitment to finding a leader who can bring about positive change and development to Nigeria.
