Dr. Moses Paul, the National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, popularly called Dr. Mo, has refused to dignify claims about the expulsion of Tanko Yunusa, saying the essence of the movement is Mr. Peter Obi.

Dr. Mo said he does not want to waste time responding to paid narratives, because the movement is focused on building a new Nigeria.

He said, “The essence of the movement is Mr. Peter Obi. So, I don’t even want to dignify a response to that.”

He said he wants to be firm on the state of the country, because Nigerians deserve to hear the truth about how they are being treated by those in power.

He said, “You know, we live in a country today, and I want to be firm on this, Victor.”

Dr. Mo asked how Nigerians can be described as a people when ministers wake up in the morning, drink kai kai and ogogoro, and invite microphones to insult the same people they are meant to serve.

He said, “How do you describe us as a people, where today, ministers wake up in the morning, they drink kai kai and ogogoro, and invite microphones from NTA, Arise, Symfoni, and other people, and insult Nigerians, pay young people money to go and disrupt things?”

He said the country has degenerated to a level where ruling party chairmen threaten Nigerians openly and sitting senators talk about killing the opposition.

He said, “We live in a country where ruling party chairmen are telling Nigerians that they will use AK-47 on them. Sitting senators are talking about killing the opposition.”

Dr. Mo said it is even worse that people whose elections were rigged for them, local government chairmen, now get up to talk absolute nonsense to Nigerians.

He said, “We live in a country where people whose elections were rigged for them, local government chairmen, will get up and talk absolute nonsense to Nigerians, telling them to get out of communities if they will not vote for the ruling party.”

He said such rhetoric only comes when people are paid to do nonsense, and Nigerians should not take it seriously.

He said, “So, you hear these kinds of rhetorics when people are paid to just do nonsense.”

Dr. Mo said he will not dignify such distractions, because the Obidient Movement is about a new Nigeria.

He said, “So, I will not dignify it, because this movement, the Obidient Movement, is about a new Nigeria, where you will have sensible people as leaders, and where people can take things seriously for once.”

He concluded that Nigeria needs sensible leaders who will take governance seriously, and that is what the Obidient Movement is fighting for.
