The group made up of young people trooped out in large numbers and gathered at the Stella Obasanjo Multi-Purpose Hall Junction, along Ajase-Ipo road in Ilorin, with branded T-shirts and posters of the presidential candidate and his running mate around 10 am.
The officers of the Police were also noticed in the area in numbers engaging the organisers of the rally and some participants.
After a long discussion and engagement they, however, later allowed them to march towards Offa-Garage roundabout area.
The Kwara State Coordinator of the Coalition of Obi Support Groups Aloysius Nwora said the rally was in solidarity with the political aspiration of Peter Obi, a former governor of Anambra State.
Speaking on the hiccup with the security operatives, he explained that the group sought approval from the police to avert possible hijack of the peaceful rally.
