Ahead of the 2027 presidential election, former Peter Obi spokesman, Tanko Yunusa, has been appointed the Interim National Coordinator of Obidient Movement worldwide.
According to the former presidential candidate, Yunusa was chosen to occupy the position after a consensus agreement. He pointed out that it was agreed that the position should be zoned to the North.
Obi made this disclosure during an X Space engagement. He stated that Yunusa’s appointment was part of efforts to lay a foundation that would include members of the Obidient Movement in the Labour Party structure at all levels.
He said: “Last week, I held an X space to announce the start of a series of engagements that will help establish this structure. To drive this process, I set up a team to manage these conversations. This team was tasked with holding a series of consultations and engagements.
“I want to sincerely thank everyone who showed up at the engagement meeting they recently held. I also want to thank the team for how fast they moved the conversation and the consultation process.
“This is just the beginning. We are committed to ensuring that every member of this movement is heard and included. As we build our structure. There will be more consultations at the regional level. And I encourage everyone to participate when called upon.
“Moving forward, it is crucial to have leadership in place to support this building process. After extensive consultations within the movement and reviewing feedback from Obidients through the ideas submitted, there is a consensus that the position of National Coordinator should go to the North.
“From the nominations submitted by key stakeholders in the movement and shared with the engagement team, Dr Tanko Yunusa emerged as the most nominated candidate for this role. Given his track record, leadership qualities, and commitment to the movement, I am pleased to announce that Dr. Tanko Yunusa will serve as the Interim National Coordinator. As we continue laying the foundation for our movement.
“I want to clarify that all positions filled at this stage are on an interim basis. Until our structure is fully developed.
“As we move forward, we will need your nominations for the best minds in our community to take on key positions in this structure.
“Remember, we have over 1 million leadership positions to fill. As we work to build a Nigeria that works for everyone.
“Please be thoughtful in your nominations to help us onboard people with the competence, character, and capacity to lead.”
