Naija Lives Matter Endorses Peter Obi For President… Unveils plan to create 100,000 Peter Obi Cell Groups in Nigeria
Ahead of the 2023 general election, Naija Lives Matter, a non-governmental organization (NLM), has endorsed Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi for the office of the President.
Naija Lives Matter organization, is a USA and Nigeria-based public benefits organization committed to better lives for all Nigerians by providing social support for the underprivileged, economic empowerment to youths and mobilization of citizens for participation in political activities for the betterment of Nigeria.
Announcing the endorsement of Mr. Obi in a Press Conference, Naija Lives Matter organization Founder and Chairman, Dr. Ope Banwo, described the development as a priviledge.
Ope Banwo, who is a foremost entertainment entrepreneur said his intention and that of his organisation is pure.
In his words, ‘It is a pleasure to announce our organization’s endorsement of Mr Peter Obi of the
Labour Party for the upcoming 2023 presidential elections in Nigeria. In every election circle dating back to 2011, myself and Naija Lives Matter organization , as part of our civic and social responsibility outlined in our charter in the USA, decides which of the many contestants in the election year deserves our material, social and physical support’.
‘Unlike many in the country who would often pick a candidate to support based on who they think can win at the point of their endorsement, we at NLM prefer to endorse a candidate based on who should win the election, based on their ideologies, personal record, and approach to governance that match our vision for a better Nigeria for all’
‘Also, being mindful that most Nigerians have been frustrated, oppressed and beaten down by the Incompetency, corruption and general lack of direction by the two main parties in the last 16 years,
We are firmly of the conviction that it is time Nigeria grabs the bull by the horn and go in a different Direction with a new kind of leader, and with a new party, that has not held power at the center
Before. Peter Obi and the Labour Party fit both bills.
‘Fact is we cannot continue to do the same thing over and over again and then keep expecting a different result’
‘So, while fully conversant of the uphill challenge facing a third force candidate from a party different from the two main parties, in challenging for the presidency, we have consciously and whole heartedly decided to support Peter Obi of the Labour Party for the Presidency of Nigeria in 2023’.
‘Not only has he captured the imagination of millions of Nigerians tired of stagnation, bad government and visionless leadership, with his array of fresh ideas for governance and folksy manner that resonates with most Nigerians, he also has some solid achievements as a two-term Governor that gives us reasonable confidence and hindsight into him to believe he could be the difference maker we all need in the Nigeria of today’.
‘While only God can see the future and know for a fact what any leader will do when given the reigns of power, we are reasonably confident and expectant that Mr. Obi will live up to the expectation and aspirations of most Nigerians who are sick and tired of struggling in a nation blessed with so much talent and resources.
Stating that Naija Lives Matter organization is proud to stand with Mr. Obi for the presidency of Nigeria, Dr. Banwo added that NLM will do its part in the national assignment, having already activated its own Peter Obi Nation Support Group Project to join 1,000 other support groups out there working for the victory of Mr. Obi at the polls in the upcoming 2023 elections.
‘’This is a special project of the Naija Lives Matter to create 100,000 small Peter Obi Nation support cells groups over the next eight months, who will join with other Peter Obi support organizations to make history in 2023 at the polls’.
Urging everyone to find out more about the Peter Obi Nation project of Naija Lives Matters on www.PeterObiProject.com and sign up, he also encouraged Nigerians to join other patriots at home and abroad, in this struggle to turn Nigeria’s economy from one of consumption to one that is Production-based, thus creating a nation Nigerians can all be proud of.

Buratai Pays Tribute to Ihejirika at 70, Hails Mentorship and Legacy of Leadership
Former Chief of Army Staff and Nigeria’s immediate past Ambassador to the Republic of Benin, Lt. Gen. (Rtd) Tukur Yusuf Buratai, has paid a glowing tribute to his predecessor, Lt. Gen. OA Ihejirika, as the retired General marks his 70th birthday.
In a heartfelt message released in Abuja on Friday, Buratai described Ihejirika as not only a distinguished soldier and statesman, but also a commander, mentor, and “architect of leadership” whose influence shaped a generation of senior military officers.
Buratai recalled that his professional rise within the Nigerian Army was significantly moulded under Ihejirika’s command, citing key appointments that defined his career trajectory.
According to him, the trust reposed in him through early command responsibilities, including his first command posting at Headquarters 2 Brigade and later as Commandant of the Nigerian Army School of Infantry, laid a solid foundation for his future leadership roles.
“These opportunities were not mere appointments; they were strategic investments in leadership,” Buratai noted, adding that such exposure prepared him for higher national responsibilities.
He further acknowledged that the mentorship and professional grounding he received under Ihejirika’s leadership were instrumental in his eventual appointment as Chief of Army Staff and later as Nigeria’s Ambassador to the Republic of Benin.
Buratai praised Ihejirika’s command philosophy, describing it as professional, pragmatic, and mission-driven. He said the former Army Chief led by example, combining firm strategic direction with a clear blueprint for excellence that continues to influence military leadership practices.
“At seventy, General Ihejirika has earned the right to reflect on a legacy secured,” Buratai stated, praying for good health, peace, and enduring joy for the retired General as he enters a new decade.
He concluded by expressing profound gratitude for the leadership, mentorship, and lasting example provided by Ihejirika over the years.
The tribute was signed by Lt. Gen. Tukur Yusuf Buratai, who described himself as a grateful mentee and successor, underscoring the enduring bonds of mentorship within the Nigerian Army’s top leadership.
