It is not immediately clear if OPP is linked to Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), under whom ‘Obidient Movement’ gained momentum during the lead-up to the 2023 general election.
The movement began on social media and transformed into offline rallies and campaign activities across multiple states.
Obi eventually finished third in the poll with 6,101,533 votes. Some LP candidates across the country also benefited from the wave of movement.
