The Obidient Movement has thrown its weight behind a potential Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso presidency, asserting that the duo possesses the expertise needed to tackle Nigeria’s education crisis. National Coordinator Yunusa Tanko underscored that leadership with integrity and a proven track record in education can turn the tide for the nation.
Tanko argued that no country can thrive when millions of its youth are denied learning opportunities. He stressed that mere budget allocations are insufficient; what matters is the effective deployment of resources to ensure every child receives quality instruction, teachers are empowered, and funds reach actual classrooms.
Drawing from Obi’s tenure in Anambra and Kwankwaso’s achievements in Kano, Tanko highlighted how their focus on human capital development, school infrastructure, and youth empowerment transformed lives. He concluded that Nigeria needs leaders who prioritize education as the bedrock of future prosperity, and that an Obi-Kwankwaso administration represents the best hope for change.
