A Coalition of North East Young Technocrats for Good Governance has called on a former Governor of Bauchi State, Alhaji Ahmadu Adamu Mu’azu, to run for president in 2023.
The group argued that the former governor, with his vast experience and performance, has what it takes to unite the country and grow the economy.
The National Coordinator of the group Dr Mohammed Abdullahi and Secretary General, Mr Solomon David Jnr said this un a statement distributed to reporters in Bauchi.
The coalition said it would continue to seek for more members and keep enlightening people on the antecedents of Mu’azu and his exemplary leadership style.
They said: “Ahmadu Mu’azu, an eminent personality and past National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is top among equals whose track records in unifying this nation is of note and whom we believe is eminently qualified to lead this nation given all the needed support by stakeholders.
“He is fit for the highest office at this time and needed to be brought on board to lead the unification struggle to keep Nigeria growing as one given the agreement that this country needed to grow and remain a united nation for the greatest happiness of the citizens and overall development of the nation.
“Mu’azu is a man with laudable achievements, and good track record is no doubt the person that would be mostly acceptable to the northern and southern elites and the people in general considering his laudable achievements in various aspects of life.
“He has not retired but should now be beckoned unto to come onboard in order to refire the national clout that could further cement and bond Nigeria together as one beyond 2023.
“To this end in our own genuine view of nation building, a man of good will in person of Ahmadu Mu’azu should be given the chance as his pedigree and records in national politics speaks volumes.
“Let’s embark on a journey to grow our dear country and give one Nigeria another chance in 2023 by considering a man of strong will Ahmadu Mu’azu.”
The coalition added that in all the places he had work Mu’azu had proven his worth through hard worked, “his giant stride in developing Bauchi State when he was a governor for eight years was attested by all. Even today his legacy projects are the projects that make the state a model, his performance when he was in NIMASA and other places he worked proved that he is a result-oriented leader that executed quality projects through hard work and transparency
“He is a detribalised Nigerian, a quintessential leader per excellence who has friends across the 36 states of the federation…He has the integrity, honesty and zeal to address corruption and subsequently combat injustice, marginalisation, insecurity, poverty and many societal ills bedeviling the country.”
