Supporters of Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso have unified their political structures under a new platform known as the OK Movement, ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
The development was announced in a statement issued by the group’s National Publicity Secretary, Justin Ijeh, who said the initiative is driven by the belief that rebuilding the country requires collective effort rather than ethnic or sectional interests.
According to the statement, the movement aims to mobilise Nigerians across political, ethnic, and religious lines to tackle economic hardship, insecurity, and governance challenges, while promoting accountable leadership.
“Nigeria stands at a defining crossroads. At a time when citizens are grappling with severe economic pressure, rising living costs, and persistent insecurity, the Obi–Kwankwaso (OK) Movement is unveiling its national and state structures,” the statement read.
Describing the initiative as more than a political step, the group said it represents a coordinated national effort toward reform and renewal.
“We understand the hardship faced by Nigerians—from farmers unable to operate safely to entrepreneurs constrained by an unstable economy. Despite these challenges, the OK Movement represents a strong symbol of hope,” it added.
The group stressed that its mission is anchored on the conviction that the country can overcome its current challenges through structured and disciplined leadership focused on the welfare of all citizens.
Rejecting divisive politics, the movement said it would not be driven by ethnicity, religion, or regional interests, but by unity and shared national purpose.
“Our diversity is our strength, and our progress depends on unity. We are building a movement from the grassroots to the national level, grounded in integrity, competence, and a shared responsibility to secure the future,” the statement noted.
Referencing the Nigerian National Anthem, the group said its vision aligns with the aspiration for a nation where justice, peace, and prosperity are accessible to all.
It also called on Nigerians who desire change to join the movement, expressing confidence that collective action and purposeful leadership would drive the country toward a better future.
“The structures are in place, the vision is clear, and the movement has begun. Together, we will make Nigeria OK,” the statement concluded.
