“We are glad that for the first time in the recent past, Nigerians are united in the dethronement of misgovernance in Aso Rock. They are determined to make a political change through the ballot box with a third force presidency.
“This is the first time we are seeing such a strong political movement in Nigeria that is not sponsored by politicians, rather the masses own the project.
“You have seen the mass movement across the country and beyond; you have seen even children, persons with special needs, the aged; everyone is part of this movement.”

“This is a movement to take back Nigeria from the days of locusts, greedy and selfish politicians and to rescue the country from adversity, economic slump, insecurity and corruption.
“Nigerians have demonstrated readiness to take back their country through the ballot box and it behoves the Independent National Electoral Commission to make the votes count,” he said.
Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, governor of Anambra State, has disputed the claim that he is working against Obi’s goal.
The governor’s response followed claims that he instructed All Progressives Grand Alliance members in Anambra to campaign against Obi.
In a statement distributed to journalists in Awka on Wednesday, Mr. Christian Aburime, the press secretary for Soludo, disputed the accusation.
The statement titled “Re: Soludo charges Anambra APGA to work against Peter Obi, dreams of Presidency after Atiku” read in part, “We note with disdain the fallacious and distasteful publication of a write-up with the above heading by faceless individual(s).
“The following should, however, be noted: that Soludo only held a private meeting with APGA members.
“At no time during the meeting was Peter Obi a point of discourse.
“We, therefore, urge Ndi-Anambra and members of the public to completely ignore and disregard the publication in its entirety.”
