(DDM) – The Labour Party (LP) governorship candidate for the November 8 Anambra election, Hon. George Moghalu (Ohamadike), has publicly lauded the OBIdient movement, describing it as “exemplary, motivating, and a great movement that has redefined political engagement in Nigeria.”
In a statement posted on his official X handle, Moghalu commended the resilience, patriotism, and consistency of the movement, noting that its influence extends far beyond partisan politics.
He acknowledged that the OBIdient movement has awakened a new sense of civic responsibility and political consciousness across the country, particularly among the youth and professionals who were once disconnected from the political process.
According to Diaspora Digital Media (DDM), Moghalu’s remarks come at a time when the OBIdient movement, inspired by the leadership values of former presidential candidate Peter Obi, continues to shape conversations on governance, accountability, and the future of democratic leadership in Nigeria.
Moghalu stated: “The passion in the OBIdient movement is exemplary and motivating.
Everyone in Nigeria, no matter your political affiliation, cannot but acknowledge the passion of the movement.
OBIdient movement is a GREAT movement.
Thank you Dr @YunusaTanko.
Thank you OBIdients.
Thank you Ndi Anambra.
Vote LP 🗳️.”
He further emphasized that the passion displayed by the movement’s members is rooted in the genuine desire for a Nigeria built on fairness, equity, and justice, values he said align perfectly with his vision for Anambra State.
Political observers believe Moghalu’s recognition of the OBIdient movement underscores a broader political realignment within the Labour Party, signaling greater collaboration and unity among stakeholders ahead of the governorship election.
His consistent outreach to both party members and nonpartisan citizens is being interpreted as an effort to consolidate support across all local government areas in Anambra.
The OBIdient movement, which gained massive traction during Nigeria’s 2023 general elections, is widely credited with energizing millions of young voters to participate in politics for the first time.
The movement’s advocacy for good governance, fiscal prudence, and citizen-driven leadership continues to resonate strongly across the nation and in the diaspora.
Moghalu’s message has since gone viral on social media, drawing praise for his humility and political maturity. Supporters have described his words as proof that true leadership recognizes and builds upon people-driven movements rather than ignoring them.
As the November 8 election draws closer, Moghalu reiterated his commitment to ensuring that Anambra experiences “a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.”
He concluded his post with his familiar slogan: “Anambra ga-adị mma ọzọ”, a declaration of hope and progress that continues to echo among Labour Party supporters and ordinary citizens yearning for transformational governance in Anambra State.
