The National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, Yunusa Tanko says the movement will pursue new avenues to serve Nigerians if the Labour Party, LP, resists good governance and accountability.
Tanko made this statement in an interview on Tuesday in Abuja, stressing that the movement is bigger than the Labour Party.
He highlighted the group’s ambitions amidst perceived challenges within the Labour Party, stressing that the movement was ready to mobilise and expand its reach, especially after the setbacks of the 2023 general elections.
While reflecting on the Labour Party’s shortcomings in the last election, Tanko said it was clear that there were challenges within the party.
He explained that 1,760 polling units were not covered by the Labour Party, and the Obedient Movement now aims to remedy this by creating a solid foundation across all units.
“The Obedient Movement is bigger than the Labour Party. We have them everywhere, academicians, traders, some members of other political parties.
“When it becomes inevitable that the Labour Party is not ready to assimilate the idea of good governance; we will have to look for another opportunity.
