Nigerians have gathered in different parts of Lagos as they prepare to rally for the 4 million march in demonstration of their support for the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.
As seen by different videos and pictures posted by Obi’s supporters (Obidient) on social media, the name of Obi is being chanted as the Nigerians advocate good governance.
Defying the early morning rain in some parts of the state, Obidients are seen canvassing for their favourite on social media as they celebrate Nigeria’s independence in customised wears promoting Obi.
