Proposing a solution, Mazi Ohuabunwa said, “As a Nigerian patriot, I have over the years talked, written and proposed ideas about how to rescue Nigeria, yet no change. It is now time for action. We at the NNG are ready to put words and ideas to action and help create a new Nigeria that works for all and not for a few.

” We will provide an inclusive leadership and return Nigeria to a country of industry, knowledge, excellence, integrity, liberty, justice, sanity and security on the foundation of true Godliness, not mere religiosity. I call on all Nigerians to join hands with us.”

Mazi Ohuabunwa, after his speech which was greeted with rousing ovation and shouts of support, presented the NNG flags to all state chapter coordinators, inducted new members into the Lagos State Chapter of the NNG and also presided over its inaugural stakeholders meeting.

In his own remark, Obiozor lauded the excellent records of Mazi Ohuabunwa in service to the country in various capacities, affirming that he has what it takes to lead Nigeria.

He also challenged all Igbo sons and daughters to be bold to declare their ambitions and run for president “because they are more than qualified”.
