Supporters of and have formally collapsed their political structures into a new coalition known as the OK Movement, signaling an early alignment ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
The development was announced in a statement signed by the movement’s National Publicity Secretary, Justin Ijeh, who said the initiative is driven by a shared belief that Nigeria’s renewal requires collective effort beyond ethnic, regional, or religious divides.
According to the statement, the unveiling of the OK Movement’s national and state structures marks “the birth of a coordinated, nationwide engine for systemic reform and national rebirth.”
The group said the country is currently facing a “defining crossroads,” citing worsening economic hardship, rising cost of living, and persistent insecurity as key challenges confronting citizens.
“We recognise the exhaustion felt in every Nigerian household. From the farmer unable to harvest in safety to the entrepreneur stifled by a volatile economy, the struggle is real,” the statement read.
Despite these challenges, the movement described itself as “a beacon of resolute hope,” emphasizing that its mission is anchored on the conviction that “Nigeria will be OK.”
It added that the coalition aims to move beyond “mere rhetoric” by providing a “structured, disciplined pathway” toward inclusive governance and national development.
The OK Movement also declared itself open to all Nigerians, rejecting what it described as the “tired politics of tribalism, regionalism, and religious sentiment,” which it said have long hindered national progress.
“Our strength lies in our diversity, and our progress depends on our unity,” the statement noted, adding that the movement is mobilising support from grassroots communities to the national level.
Highlighting its vision, the group referenced the third stanza of Nigeria’s national anthem as a guiding principle, stressing the need to build a nation where justice, peace, and shared prosperity are guaranteed for all citizens.
“This is not merely a lyric; it is our blueprint,” the statement said, underscoring its commitment to economic stability, accountable leadership, and national cohesion.
The movement concluded with a call for collective action, urging Nigerians to join what it described as a decisive effort to “rescue the future” and redefine the country’s trajectory.
“The structures are set. The vision is clear. The movement is here. Together, we will make Nigeria OK,” it declared.
