2027: We won't take this anymore - Peter Obi over attack on Obidients in Delta

In Delta State, Nigeria Democratic Congress presidential candidate Peter Obi has strongly condemned a violent attack on members and coordinators of the NDC and the Obidient Movement. In a statement on his verified X account, Obi expressed deep sorrow and alarm over the reports of violence directed at his supporters and fellow citizens who were exercising their democratic rights.

He unequivocally denounced the attacks, stating that political violence holds no place in a democracy and can never be justified. Obi emphasized that it is troubling that, at a time when Nigeria needs responsible leadership, some individuals still resort to thuggery and violence to secure political influence. He called for an immediate and thorough investigation by the government and security agencies into the attacks, urging them to identify and punish those responsible, regardless of political affiliations.
