By O’star Eze

Chinemerem Oguegbe, founder and convener of Anambra New Generation Vanguard, youth oriented organization has pledged to mobilise youth support for Atiku across political lines for the sake of his running mate, Peter Obi.

He also enjoined Southeast PDP leaders led by Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State to “desist from politicizing Atiku’s choice of Peter Obi as his running mate,” and make haste to officially congratulate Mr Peter Obi.

Speaking recently through his spokesman, Dr Nonso Okoye, Oguegbe said that though his organization is non-partisan, that they have decided to wade into the issue because it “affects the dreams of the entire Igbo nation and the younger generation to once again be key players in the politics of Nigeria.”

“PDP Leaders in the South East led by Gov. Umahi should desist from politicizing and destroying this rare privilege given to the Igbo nation,”he said.

Oguegbe congratulated Alhaji Atiku Abubakar for finding Peter Obi, “a young Igbo son” worthy to be his running mate in the 2019 presidential election.

He said that Atiku has by this singular act “reiterated his firm belief in one Nigeria where all ethnic groups are given equal opportunities.”

Oguegbe insisted that the choice of Peter Obi was informed by the fact that Peter Obi has distinguished himself in the areas of integrity, experience and knowledge of Nigerian economy.

He described Peter Obi as an ex-governor who has done a lot in the area of youth empowerment through quality education and mentorship.

“We, the younger generation of the Igbo nation, are identifying with Mr Peter Obi given his tremendous achievements as Governor of Anambra State,his love for the youths and his strive to empower young people through quality education and mentoring programs since leaving office.

“We hope to mobilize young people across the Federation to identify with this mantra of hope irrespective of political party affiliations and ensure that his vast experience is brought to play in solving the economic issues of Nigeria and providing a platform of Growth for the younger generation.

“On a final note we urge Gov. Umahi and other PDP Stakeholders in the South East to immediately congratulate H.E Mr. Peter Obi and mobilize towards ensuring that Ndi Igbo does not lose this one in a life time opportunity,” he said.
