The ASIWAJU MANDATE GROUP (AMG), a socio-political group has unveiled its National Structure to Champion Asiwaju Mandate For Positive Change aimed at mobilising support and amplify the message of the Renewed hope mandate across the nation.
The National Coordinator of the group, Hon. Sarah Shekwonya Tukura, who made the unveiling during a press conference in Abuja on Wednesday, congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his inauguration as the 16th President of the Federal republic of Nigeria.
Hon. Sarah said, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a revered leader and visionary statesman, has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the Nigerian people and a proven track record of transformative leadership.
According to her, the Asiwaju Mandate Group (AMG) shall galvanize public support and engagement with all stakeholders through various means.
“The Asiwaju Mandate Group (AMG) is a socio-political group whose membership spread across the six geopolitical zones, comprising of professionals and innovative thinkers from home and diaspora with a grassroots approach dedicated to promoting the ideals and vision of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is proud to unveil itself and its action plan to the general public.
“It will engage in grassroots mobilization efforts, organizing town hall meetings, rallies, sensitization, and awareness campaigns to educate Nigerians about the transformative potential of the renewed hope mandate.
“By reaching every corner of the nation, the group aims to foster widespread understanding and support for the mandate’s implementation.
“Furthermore, we shall serve as a watchdog, diligently monitoring the actions and inactions of government officials to ensure they remain true to the spirit of our collective mandate and promoting policies and programs that are people-centric and developmental.
“We are committed to holding ourselves and all our leaders accountable for their responsibilities and advocating for the best interests of the Nigerian people.
“It is in this light that we appeal to fellow Nigerians, The NLC and the TUC to put the greater good of all Nigerians above their unions’ interest. The subsidy system as practiced has proven to be a drain on the nation’s resources, leading to significant fiscal deficits, corruption, and limited investment in critical sectors such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure development.
“The removal of the subsidy will create a rationalized and market-driven approach to petroleum pricing. This will not only ensure a fair distribution of resources but also stimulate economic growth by attracting private investments, fostering competition, and promoting innovation within the sector.
“The funds saved from subsidy removal can be redirected towards social welfare programs, job creation initiatives, and the development of vital infrastructure projects that will benefit all Nigerians. This indeed will be a worthy sacrifice under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s watch.
“We laud the President for hitting the ground running. His recent appointments indicate intents and purpose to deliver on his promise during the campaign.
“While congratulating Hon. Femi Gbajabimiala and Senator George Akume on their appointment as the Chief of Staff of the President and Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) respectively, we urge them to live up to the expectation of the teaming masses and be reliable assets to the President In delivering his mandate.
“We equally trust that all future appointments would be top-notched and aimed at delivering the dividend of democracy to all Nigerians.
“More so, the renewed hope mandate places a strong emphasis on the rule of law and inclusive governance. The President believes that a just and fair society can only be built upon a foundation of strong institutions and transparent processes.
“This group will advocate for the strengthening of the judiciary, fighting corruption, and ensuring that all Nigerians have equal access to justice.
This presentation of the central Working Team of Asiwaju Mandate Group is a call to action to all progressives and by extension the members of the fourth estates of the realm to eschew from divisory rhetoric and embrace tolerance, broadmindedness, and acceptability.
“AMG recognizes that strength that lies in Nigeria’s diversity. It promotes inclusivity and unity, respecting and celebrating the diverse cultures, religions, and ethnicities that make up our nation. We will work tirelessly to foster national unity, bridging divides and promoting dialogue among various stakeholders, building a stronger and more cohesive Nigeria. (NAN) (www.nannews.ng)
