The Obidient Movement has dismissed recent media reports claiming it is splitting, describing such stories as manufactured attempts to misrepresent its dynamics.
In a statement released by Ibrahim Umar, spokesman for Peter Obi Media Reach (POMR), the movement said it remains united but is evolving organically and in a decentralised manner.
The statement argued that what critics portray as disunity is actually the natural development of a citizen-led coalition.
According to Umar, the Movement’s resilience stems from its foundation on accountability and governance principles championed by Peter Obi. He said these shared values continue to guide the Movement’s direction and public engagement.
The POMR spokesman urged the public and media to recognise the shift as a principled evolution rather than a fracture, reiterating the Movement’s commitment to the ideals that brought its supporters together.
Part of the press statement explains: “It’s not a conventional political organisation that operates under a rigid hierarchy; the Obidient Movement is founded upon shared values such as accountability, economic advancement, systemic fairness, and capable leadership as embodied by Peter Obi.
“While various civic groups across the nation may employ different strategies, their collective objective is a unified vision for a New Nigeria.
“The organic decentralised nature of the Obidient Movement is its source of strength. The absence of a central, easily influenced or compromised leadership body prevents any single individual or subgroup from compromising the aspirations of millions.
“The movement belongs to the Nigerian populace, not to a select group of politicians. The central mission remains unaltered along Peter Obi’s principles and approach to governance.
“Let it be unequivocally understood by both supporters and critics that the Obidient Movement’s steadfast commitment to ending the transactional politics that have held Nigeria captive is absolute. There is no division whatsoever regarding our fundamental objectives.
“We implore the public and our vast network of organic supporters globally to dismiss these deliberately orchestrated campaigns of distraction. The movement is unified, vigilant, and remains singularly focused on achieving the socio-economic liberation of Nigeria.”
