A former presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has spoken about joining several prominent politicians who took to the streets of Abuja to protest against the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, on Wednesday night.
Obi was seen alongside the likes of Atiku Abubakar, Peter
Obi, Rabiu Kwankwaso, Rauf Aregbesola, Rotimi Amaechi, and Aminu Tambuwal were
seen holding the placards of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in a “Save
our Democracy’ protest.
It comes after INEC’s decision to recognize the party
leadership headed by David Mark.
Obi wrote on X: “Today, I joined fellow Nigerians, leaders,
and members of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) led by National Chairman
Sen. David Mark to participate in a peaceful “Save Democracy” protest.
“This event was not just an effort to protect our democracy;
it was also a moment of reflection on how far we have fallen as a nation.
“We must resist the suffocation of our democracy by those
who once claimed to have sacrificed to defend it, but are now doing everything
possible to undermine it and silence opposition.
“History will not be kind to those who traded the struggle
for democracy for the comfort of power. We will not remain silent, we will not
be intimidated, and we will not surrender the future of this nation. The will
of the people must prevail—stronger, louder, and impossible to suppress.”
