A political group, Young Nigerian Voices, have called on Honorable Emeka Nwajiuba to consider running for the presidency in 2027 general election.
The call was contained in a statement signed and made available to Journalists in Awka, Anambra State capital on Monday by the group deputy national coordinator, North Central, Alhaji Aawul Mohammed Giri.
According to Giri, the call is a result of Hon. Nwajiuba’s impressive track record of public service and his potential to correct the anomalies created by the present government.
“As a former Minister of State for Education, Hon. Nwajiuba demonstrated his commitment to the development of Nigeria’s youth and education sector. His experience and expertise make him an ideal candidate to tackle the country’s pressing challenges, including the anomalies created by the present government in the areas of the economy, health, education, Infrastructure, etc.
“Our call is not just a spontaneous endorsement but a well-thought-out decision.
“We believe that Hon. Nwajiuba possesses the leadership acumen, integrity, and passion required to drive Nigeria’s growth and prosperity.
“This is not the first time Hon. Nwajiuba has been endorsed for the presidency. In 2023, the Deputy National Coordinator, North Central, Alhaji Aawul Mohammed Giri, of the Young Nigerian Voices, also called on Nigerians to support a president from the South East extraction, with Hon. Nwajiuba as his preferred candidate.
“As the 2027 presidential election draws near, Young Nigerian Voices’ endorsement of Hon. Nwajiuba is a significant development. It reflects the group’s desire for a leader who can unite the country, drive economic growth, and ensure a brighter future for all Nigerians.
“Will Hon. Nwajiuba heed the call and throw his hat into the ring? Only time will tell. However, one thing is certain, Young Nigerian Voices’ endorsement has sparked a renewed interest in his potential candidacy, and Nigerians will be watching with bated breath,” the statement added.
