OBIdients behave like Donald Trump Supporters, be wary, Diaspora Group has told US President Biden.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

NewsOnline<\/a><\/strong> reports that the National Association of Diaspora Alliance (NADA<\/strong>) in the United States of America (USA) has hailed Nigerians for coming out stronger after its internal wrangling over the recently concluded presidential election in the country, saying the nation has a strong internal problem-solving mechanism.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This was contained in a letter by the leaders of NADA, addressed to the President of USA, Joe Biden, and signed by Dr Oluseyi Senu-Oke and Dr Dotun Aliu, Chairman and President respectively,\u00a0 said there is nothing to worry about Nigeria\u2019s unity, saying the nation will always come out stronger despite the escalating grievances.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The group which likened OBIdients \u2013 supporters of the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi \u2013 to that of former U.S President, Donald Trump, stated that it is imperative to also clear the air on some few individuals who have been spreading falsehood about Nigeria, saying this is extremely dishonorable, but it is manageable.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The letter stated that: \u201cNigeria is currently in a situation similar to the election between you and Donald Trump. As you may recall, there was a national election in the United States, the results of which were announced, and you were declared the legitimate winner. However, Trump rejected the verdict, claiming that there were irregularities, rigging, and malpractice in the election with no evidence to back up his claims.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cHe openly declared that he had won the election and that it had been stolen from him. His ardent supporters began acting out his script, claiming that the election had been rigged.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cHe urged his followers to reclaim the mandate that had been taken from them. His supporters flocked to Capitol Hill, confident that they would reclaim the stolen mandate without having to wait for the court\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cTrump filed more than 30 frivolous and unfounded court cases in an attempt to overturn the election, but he ultimately lost all of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe same situation is currently unfolding in Nigeria. On February 25, 2023, the electoral body held a presidential election, and a clear winner was declared after substantially meeting the requirements under Nigerian electoral law.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cNot long after the election, the second-place finisher \u2014 and disregarding the firstplace finisher \u2014 claimed he had won and that the results were rigged. He informed his supporters that the people\u2019s mandate had been stolen and pleaded with them to reclaim it. This should sound familiar, Mr. President.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThey established the \u201cObidents Movement,\u201d which actively and precisely followed a script dubbed \u201cTrump method\u201d in line with the strategy employed by the Donald Trump\u2019s most ardent supporters. One of these is using all available means to undermine and cast doubt on the election and the president-elect on a national and international scale.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cTheir presidential candidate filed a court petition to challenge the election process rather than the outcome. If the mandate was truly stolen, why not challenge the outcome and present evidence of votes stolen from the party?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
