A recent post on X (formerly Twitter) by user Fisayo Ademuwagun (@tolu_7086) has accused supporters of the Obidient movement – the grassroots base associated with Labour Party figure Peter Obi – of engaging in fraudulent activities among themselves.
In the post, Ademuwagun wrote: “Obidient camp is literally full of thieves… they’re scamming each other now. Wow. 😭”
Attached to the post is a 33-second video clip showing the lobby of an ongoing X Spaces audio session organized around the African Democratic Congress (ADC), a Nigerian political party. The Spaces is titled “ADC Tell Us – Are You Here For The Cruise Or To Win An Election?” 🔥
The clip captures the session interface at approximately 6:18 PM, marked as recording (“REC”), with a host identified as “God’SWi…” (Host) and a co-host “Extraordin…” (Co-host). Speakers include “Dunke,” “Dr Barry A.,” “Mallam Eze,” “Paula,” “Dahwatch,” “Eze Pedro,” and others who appear to join progressively, such as “JACK The…” in later frames.
The provocative title questions participants’ motivations within the ADC: whether they are involved primarily for social enjoyment or “cruise” (Nigerian slang for fun and vibes) or for the serious objective of winning elections.
The screen displays participant avatars in a grid, a prompt asking “Like what you’re hearing?” with a “Follow host” button, and standard X Spaces controls for reactions, requests to speak, likes, and comments.
The post itself has received limited engagement so far (6 likes, 3 reposts, 30 views, and no direct replies at the time of retrieval). It remains unclear whether the ADC Spaces clip is meant to directly illustrate the alleged scamming in the Obidient camp, serve as a point of contrast regarding political seriousness, or relate to broader discussions in Nigerian online political circles.
Such posts highlight the often heated and satirical nature of political commentary on X in Nigeria, where supporters of various parties and movements frequently critique one another amid ongoing national conversations about governance, elections, and party integrity. No further details on specific scam allegations were provided in the post.
