Convener of the GNM and chairman of the Nigerian Young Professionals Forum , Mr Moses Siloko Siasia, who harped on this on Tuesday at a Consultation Breakfast Meeting with Civil Society Organisations held in Abuja, hinted that the movement has resolved to support a presidential candidate who is not beyond 70 years of age.
He emphasised that the GNM’s choice of candidate will be tied to capacity, ideas and professionalism, adding that a SWOT analysis will be conducted to come up with a candidate that fits its objectives. Mr Siasia said the consultation with CSOs will further help strategise on stretching influence and exposing young citizens to accessible and effective tools of political participation.He said: “We have seen a lot of standalone political movements throwing their weights at the giant task of charting a new course for Nigeria’s polity,” lamenting that “there is no synergy between them.”
“At GNM we are not lost to the realities that there is no cause that can advance without partnership and collaboration. That is why we are gathered here as movers and shakers to harness our expertise towards promoting active participation of young people in politics, as well as to support a technocrat and seasoned professional in the forthcoming elections.”
