Abia State chapter of the Obidient Movement has announced that its members would stage a ‘One Million Man March’ in major towns of Abia State for Peter Obi, the 2023 Presidential candidate of the Labour Party.
The group in a state issued in Umuahia on Sunday, said the march will hold simultaneously in four major Abia towns – Umuahia, Aba, Ohafia and Uzuakoli – on July 19.
According to a statement by one of the Coordinators of the Obident Movement in the state, Chibuzor Obiesili and Head, Media & Publicity Sub-committee, Mr Christian Emmanuel, the procession would be held to mark Obi’s birthday, which comes up on July 19.
While backing Obi for adopting the African Democratic Congress, ADC, to pursue his presidential ambition in 2027, the Obidient Movement described the ADC as an “Organic Coalition Movement”.
“Obi believes that to dismantle the structures that keep our people in poverty and insecurity, we must build bridges and not walls even when those bridges are difficult,” the group said.
The Obidient Movement said apart from the One Million Man march for the former Anambra governor, its members would also visit inmates in prisons, hospital patients and other vulnerable persons across Abia State.
