OBASANJO OBTAINS COALITION FORMS, SAYS MOVEMENT IS NON PARTISAN

Obasanjo while speaking at the ceremony explained further that, the movement was proposed as the new direction to mobilise population for unity, cooperation, development, rule of law and employment.

He explained that, his last week statement was not done frivolously, but out of deep concern for the situation of the country, where he exposed on some aspects of the situations he observed, and also took liberty to offer advice politely.

‘Coalition for Nigeria Movement is proposed as the new direction to mobilise our population for unity, cooperation, development, rule of law, employment, law and order, justice, integration, peace, security, stability, welfare and wellbeing. In these regards, special attention and space must be given to youths and women, who in most cases, have been victims and underlings’

The former President, declared that if the movement decides to transform itself and go into partisan politics, he would cease to be a member, stating that as a member of the movement now, he accepted all the conditions attached to membership of the coalition

‘I am happy to be a member of the coalition for Nigeria Movement. The movement is a pressure point towards good governance. This is the commencement for our popular and grassroots association. Of course, the membership will be free to collectively decide on whether CNM becomes a political party’.

‘If the movement decides to transform itself and go into partisan politics, I cease to be a member. And for now, I accept all the conditions attached to membership of the coalition. We must promote the CNM  and mobilise membership all over the country including membership from diaspora

The former President said, the movement was not about personality or personalities, but about platform and system, stressing that for the first time we are building a platform from bottom-up, adding that the movement’s base is the grassroots and the people

‘A Nigeria of hope, aspiration and assurances which belongs to all with no sacred cow nor sacrificial lamb is what we want. My Nigeria,  your Nigeria and our Nigeria with enchanting present and secure and glorious future. Join the, movement to build a new Nigeria that will be in the hands of God’,Obasanjo emphasised
