A group, Team New Nigeria (TNN) which has former military president Gen Ibrahim Babangida as its patron, has urged President Bola Tinubu to form an inclusive government and restore Nigeria’s standing in the world.
The group further stated that the Tinubu administration has all it takes to realize its renewed hope in having a progressive Nigeria.
TNN stated this while commending the appointment of Senator George Akume as the secretary to the government of the federation of Nigeria by Tinubu.
In his message on behalf of the National Executive Committee of the TNN, President of the organisation, Dr. Modibbo Yakubu Farakwai, described Akume as an inspiring, thoughtful, strategic and a man of deep integrity who will bring his trademark skill, talent and judgment.
“In this context, the leadership of Team New Nigeria conveyed the commitment of the Organisation to working closely with the Federal Government in the areas of common Interests, including good governance and democratic values. The TNN leadership has also underscored the need of forming an inclusive government, take steps to restore Nigeria’s standing in the world, strengthening the country’s national security workforce, rebuilding democratic alliances across the world, championing Nigeria’s values and human rights, and equipping the Nigerian people to succeed in a Global economy.”
TNN however said Akume’s appointment is an assurance of first class leadership to work on the recovery Nigeria needs and the shared prosperity Nigerians are expecting from the Tinubu administration.
Noting that they warmly welcome the Akume’s appointment, Farakwai added,
“At a time of great change, and facing the challenge amounting to little less than the Reconstruction of the national and trace architecture of Nigeria, and with so many great Challenges to the multilateral system, the President’s decision to appoint Akume is a Significant one, and one supported by the TNN.
“We pray that God guide and protect him on this delicate national assignment and to not stop his blessings and protection for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu whose administration promises to impact positively in the lives of the masses.”
