According to sources, the Director of Mobilization of the Obidient Movement, Morris Monye, led a delegation to Moghalu’s campaign office in Awka, where he expressed the movement’s support for the candidate. Monye cited Moghalu’s competence and people-focused vision as the reason behind the endorsement. “The Obidient Movement is about good governance, accountability, and development. Dr. Moghalu embodies these values, and Anambra deserves a leader who will return governance to the people,” he stated.
