A pressure movement known as ‘The Green Alliance’ (TGA), has called on the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Dr. Godwin Emefiele, to contest the 2023 Presidential election, with a pledged to purchase the nomination and expression of interest forms for him.
The group made the call today while walking round the streets of Asaba, the capital of Delta State, in a roadshow like calling on Nigerians to add voices to the persuasion for the CBN Governor to join the 2023 presidential race. Telling everyone that Emefiele’s achievements in CBN were numerous and cannot be quantified, so they were appealing, pleading and persuading Emefiele to declare for the presidency.
In his speech, the convener of the group, Wale Fapohunda, who disclosed that The Green Alliance movement was right now the biggest movement in Africa 🌍 with over 6million members, that their social media handles keep getting requests on a daily basis, noted that TGA believe that what the country needed was a man who has experience in steering the economy in the right direction, hence their call for Emefiele to join the race in 2023.
While saying ‘MEFFY 2023- PEACE PROGRESS AND PROSPERITY” was the group slogan, the TGA Convener said: “Our followers and membership recorded over 800,000 people who joined our movement across the 36 States of the Federation, promising to go all the way with us until Dr. Godwin Ifeanyichukwu Emefiele yields to our clarion call, and to further reinstate our love, commitment and confidence in what this distinguished Nigerian can do if he eventually yields to our cry, we at the TGA have decided and offered to purchase the expression of interest and nomination form for Dr. Godwin Ifeanyichukwu Emefiele to contest the 2023 presidential elections under the platform of the APC.
“This selfless gesture is borne out of the conviction we repose in his capacity, his dodgeness, his developmental prowess, his financial and economy expertise to deliver good governance to Nigeria 🇳🇬 and Nigerians.
“It will also interest you to know that many of our members in diaspora are also calling for Dr, Godwin Ifeanyichukwu Emefiele to please kindly yield to our call and take on the bull by the horn.
“He has done it before in the business world, we believe he can deliver excellently if given the opportunity to serve his fathers land”.
Fapohunda said TGA want Emefiele as President because he will be a bridge builder, that the former MD of Zenith Bank and now CBN Governor has pushed through measures that has halted importations and moved the nation’s agricultural sector to a great height.
