  "summary": "The Obidient Movement has cautioned Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, against interfering with the 2027 general elections, as he declared himself the field commander of President Bola Tinubu’s re-election campaign in the FCT and Rivers State. The movement urged the Independent National Electoral Commission and security agencies to ensure a free, fair, and credible process, emphasizing that no politician or political party has the right to determine electoral outcomes before votes are cast. They emphasized that the electoral process must remain under the relevant institutions and be guided by the choices of voters, warning that any attempt to manipulate the 2027 elections must be treated as an unforgivable electoral offence.",
