Obidient Movement Declares Readiness for Anambra Governorship Election

The Obidient Movement has declared full readiness for the forthcoming Anambra State governorship election scheduled for November 8, 2025.

National Coordinator of the movement, Dr. Yunusa Tanko, made this known in a statement released on Friday in Abuja, reaffirming the group’s commitment to ensuring a transparent, credible, and people-driven electoral process.

Speaking during a press conference at the George Moghalu Campaign Office in Udoka Estate, Awka, Tanko disclosed that the movement had established a robust operational structure across all 5,720 polling units in the state.

According to him, Polling Unit Commanders have been inaugurated in every ward, forming what he described as a “vibrant grassroots network” stretching from Awka to Nnewi and beyond.

“Our structures are alive, active, and alert. We have also set up digital monitoring systems to prevent electoral malpractice. The era when election results were written in secret rooms is over,” Tanko stated.

He emphasized that the Obidient Movement remains united and focused on its mission of building a “New Nigeria,” starting from the polling units.

“There is no faction, no confusion. We stand together under one vision, the vision of a New Nigeria that begins from our polling units,” he said.

Tanko urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to maintain neutrality and professionalism throughout the election process, while also calling on security agencies to ensure the safety of voters.

“To every Anambra citizen, we say: your vote is your power. Protect it and use it wisely. The world is watching, Nigeria is watching, and we, the Obidients, are ready. A new Anambra is possible, and together, we will make it happen,” he added.
