Citizens Unite, Launch Pro-Osinbajo Mobile App In Lagos
Citizens Unite, a pressure group urging Vice President Yemi Osinbajo to run for the 2023 presidential election on Saturday unveiled a mobile app to help Nigerians interface with the vision of the group in pushing the vice-president as the best candidate to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.
The app was unveiled as the group articulated reasons why Osinbajo among other contenders according to the group remains the best to lead the country.
Leader of the group and convener of the event, Dr Maryam Shettima among others said Nigeria needed thoroughbred professionals, academics, intellectuals, loyal politicians and emphatic citizens at the helm of its national affairs.
According to the Citizens Unite coordinator, the cap fits Vice President Yemi Osinbajo (VPO) the most, hence the reason the group would continue to urge him to come out and contest for the highest seat of power in Nigeria.
“We believe that Osinbajo has what it takes to usher Nigeria into a new age. We will continue to pressurise him to declare his intentions to run.
“At citizens unite, we concern ourselves with the strategic and intellectual bits of national politics.
According to Shettima, working as a Physiotherapist at the State House Clinic in 2012- 2013, I had privilege of coming across various people in leadership positions and the vice president stood out in humility, charisma and approachable.
” Not only is the vice president a visionary professional technocrat, he is also God fearing, quick to act, bridge builder, compassionate, down to earth family man with street credibility just as we witnessed with the Trader Money and even more in his visit to Borno on Friday.
“Am glad to say that after seven years as vice president, Osibanjo’s great qualities has not wained.”
Also Speaking, Ms Violet Anierobi said Nigeria has had challenges with exodus of its youths to other climes.
“Our youths refuse to return home because of corruption. Osinbajo is key to Nigeria surviving corruption.”
In her remarks, Ms Celina Unogwu said that Citizens Unite was working assiduously for Osinbao to become president of Nigeria come 2023.
“We have people willing to move the country forward, intellectuals
What we are looking for is here.
“What do you want for Nigeria. What would you like to see.
“2023 is where we have to think and come out with outcomes we deserve.”
According to her, the Nigeria we are looking for will emerge if we have people who can think outside the box in power.
“We need to think of how to bring those who can take Nigeria to the desired place to the table.”
Mr McDonald Ehiwe in his speech, said there was need for caution in 2023 as any electoral decision made by Nigerians might likely remain with us for the next eight years.
