OUR HISTORY

In 2015, an opposition party, the APC, wrested power from the incumbent PDP. Four years later, in 2019, the APC was able to win a second time. Having been out of power at the presidential level for the past eight years, playing the opposition role, the PDP was determined to win in 2023. Unlike other previous presidential contests where there were usually two major parties, this time there was a third party, the Labor Party (LP), which came about from Mr. Peter Obi joining the National Labor Congress and the Big Tent Movement of Professor Pat Utomi. The 2023 presidential election was marred with irregularities and unfortunately, the dangers and potential for crises were enormous. The reports of the international observers and the coverage of the elections in the most respected international media pointed to the dangers of continuing in our present trajectory and hoping to pray ourselves out of these problems.

Our Members

We are Nigerian professionals from different backgrounds namely academia, military, media, and religion and we live in different parts of the world, mostly in Nigeria, USA, Canada, and UK.  Our common desire is what is best for our country, Nigeria.  We have each benefitted exceedingly from Nigeria in different ways and we want to give back in appreciation. We do not seek any financial rewards. Our reward will be in seeing that our contributions to this process help bring about a new Nigeria of our dreams.

Nigeria’s 2023 presidential election, which was the 12th successive successful election since the return to civilian rule in 1999, was the most contested, the most expensive, and the most consequential political event in the country.

Our Conviction

The promise of Nigeria is enormous. We are the widely acknowledged giant of Africa on account of our huge population of 220 million. But we are also the heart, soul, and brain of Africa because of our leadership position in ECOWAS and the African Union. We were a frontline state in the revolutionary wars for independence in South Africa, Namibia, and Angola. It is widely accepted that as Nigeria goes, so does Africa. Nigeria is projected to be the third most populous country in the world (behind China and India) in 2050. More importantly, the ratio of young people to the entire population is most favorable in Nigeria for sustainable national development. The promise for continued growth is enormous.
