Nigeria - Former president Olusegun Obasanjo has decided to walk the talk by launching the much-touted Coalition for Nigeria Movement today in Abeokuta, his hometown.
The event would take place at Ogun State Secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists
(Iwe-Irohin), Oke-Ilewo in Abeokuta, according to Obasanjo’s media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi.
"The registration of members for the Coalition for Nigeria Movement (CMN), Ogun State chapter begins tomorrow, Thursday, February 1, 2018.
"It will hold at the lwe -Irohin House, Press Centre, Oke Ilewo in Abeokuta. From 10am. Special Guest and Chief Convener, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo."
Yesterday, two former governors, Olagunsoye Oyinlola of Osun State and Donald Duke of Cross River State, were among dignitaries who witnessed the launch of the Coalition of Nigeria at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja.
In a letter to President Muhammadu Buhari, Obasanjo wrote: “We need a Coalition for Nigeria. Coalition to salvage and redeem our country.
You can count me with such a movement."
With today's event in Abeokuta, Obasanjo has demonstrated the seriousness of his epistolary preoccupations to Buhari and fulfil the old adage that: charity begins at home.
