“Without Talking About Peter Obi None of Them Gets Attention” – Obidient Movement Says
The Obidient Movement has fired back at Omoyele Sowore over his recent comments downplaying Peter Obi’s role as an opposition figure. Sowore, speaking on Channels TV’s Inside Sources, had said Peter Obi shouldn’t be considered part of the opposition, claiming the Labour Party candidate hasn’t taken a stand against the Tinubu administration and stayed silent on issues like fuel price hikes.
But in response, Yunusa Tanko, National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, said Obi remains one of the most talked-about figures in Nigerian politics, proving his influence and relevance. “If he’s not a real opposition, why does everyone keep talking about him?” Tanko asked. “The truth is, without mentioning Peter Obi, none of them gets attention. Everything he says or does becomes headline news.”
He also criticized Senate President Godswill Akpabio for bringing up Obi’s name during a tribute event, accusing him of using the moment for character attacks rather than addressing national issues. “Instead of focusing on policies, they’re attacking Peter Obi’s character,” Tanko said. “They should let him keep doing what he does best — standing up to the system for the sake of the Nigerian people. That’s what he’s committed to, and that’s what we’ll keep supporting.”
Nigerian comedian Seyi Law takes to social media as he defends President Bola Tinubu. The comedian stated that the president has done a lot in his administration and claimed that Nigeria is safer and economically sound under his administration.
He then compared how things now to past years under the administration of others, and shared how things were bad. He claimed that now the economy is stabilized.
“Nigeria is safer now than 10 years ago. This government has killed more bandits than any government in Nigeria since the time of Jonathan. When last have you heard of bomb blast in Nigeria?”
It has been reported that fire occurred at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos (MMIA), Terminal 1. This fire incident occurred on Monday, 23rd of February, 2026.
Passengers at that terminal were spotted running away for safety after seeing the fire and the alarm.
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) released a statement and shared that no life was lost and people were saved and avoided danger.
It has been reported that Kano State has closed down all entertainment spots across the state. This was stated to happen because of the ongoing Ramadan fast.
The federal government shared that the new law will take place from 18th of February, 10 pm, till the last day of Ramadan. This is in order for the people participating in it to truly focus on the fast.
