The Obidient Movement, the group supporting Peter Obi, says he is gaining more and more supporters in Northern Nigeria. According to them, the love for Obi in the North is growing fast, and many people now see him as a true leader who cares.

This strong support became clearer after the District Head of Pantami in Gombe State gave Peter Obi a traditional title. The title, Sarkin Maskan Pantami, means “Chief of Shelter and Peace of Pantami.” It was a big moment for Obi and his supporters.

The appointment was shared in an official letter signed by Alhaji Yakubu Abdullahi, the District Head of Pantami. Dr. Tanko Yunusa, the Global Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, made the letter public on Tuesday during a press briefing in Abuja.

In the letter, the traditional ruler praised Peter Obi for his constant support for the poor and his efforts to improve life in local communities. The ruler said Obi truly cares about helping others and lifting people out of hardship.

The Obidient Movement said this honour is not just a title but a cultural way of showing that Obi’s leadership is appreciated. They called it “a cultural endorsement of service and leadership.”

They also explained that Peter Obi’s growing popularity in the North is because of the real work he is doing. His kind actions and humanitarian help across many Northern states are making a big difference and winning him more hearts.
