The National Coordinator for Obidient Movement Worldwide, Dr Yunusa Tanko, on Tuesday, disclosed that Mr. Peter Obi, has submitted his single-tenure proposal to the opposition coalition for consideration.
Tanko made the revelation during the conferment of a chieftaincy title of ‘Sarki Maskan’ (War Hero) on the former Anambra State governor and a commendation letter in recognition of his selfless service and dedication to the Pantami community in Gombe.
The former media aide to Obi was also decorated with the title of ‘Dan Maje Babba Pantanmi’ and a commendation letter signed by the District Head of Pantami Palace, Mai Martaba Abdullahi.
Speaking with The PUNCH on the sideline, the Obidient coordinator expressed optimism that the ongoing coalition would align with Obi’s four-year ambition.
Speaking with The PUNCH on the sidelines of the ceremony, Tanko confirmed that Obi’s four-year single tenure proposal has formally been submitted to the opposition coalition being championed by opposition figures like former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, immediate past governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai and former Senate President David Mark for scrutiny.
“We have presented it to the coalition. It is there for them to make a decision. But we are confident it can work. This is a pronouncement rooted in integrity, and Peter Obi embodies that. What Nigeria needs now are leaders with integrity,” he said.
According to Tanko, the former Anambra State governor does not require more than four years to transform the country and rescue its economy from collapse.
