Messrs Umar and Sani spoke to PREMIUM TIMES in separate interviews while Mr Agbakoba released a statement.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.”
