Three prominent Nigerians who were named as being part of a new political movement have said they were not consulted before such announcement was made.

PREMIUM TIMES earlier reported that about 30 prominent Nigerian activists, academics, and other professionals, were named, on Wednesday, as members of the newly formed political movement ahead of 2023 general elections. When contacted, Mr Umar said although he believes such a movement was necessary, he was not consulted.

He said: “My attention has been drawn to a widely circulated story that I am part of a new political movement known as the National Consultative Front. Without prejudice to the need for such a political movement, I want to place it on record that I was not consulted and so I am not part of the National Consultative Front.”
