The Presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) ahead of the 2027 general elections, Peter Obi, has dismissed reports suggesting internal divisions within his supporters, popularly known as the “Obidient Movement.”

Obi said the claims of disunity were false and insisted that the movement remains intact and united.

In a statement issued in Abuja and signed by Ibrahim Umar, spokesman for Peter Obi, the allegations of a split within the movement were described as “manufactured media reports.”
