According to him, “We’re all Nigerian youth project agitating for Sanusi.
“With the situation in the country now only credible and stainless candidate, that is acceptable to all that’s needed. And we believe that Sanusi is acceptable to all and intellectually sound to turn things around for better for this country.
“Nigeria is a sinking sheep and need someone of high intellectual ability like him to rescue the country. Baba Buhari has done his best.”
He added that the movement was ready to give Sanusi the same supports they gave Buhari in 2015 by contributing money to sponsor his campaign, buy his nomination form, recharge cards, provide logistics among other things to support him to emerge the Nigerian President in 2023.
Shinkaffi, who was in company of other stakeholders from across the North and Southern parts of country, said they’re calling on Sanusi to agree to come out and contest for the President by all means, saying they’ll not vote any other person other than Sanusi.
He said should Sanusi refuse, the youth were ready to force him or drag him to court to compel him to agree to be next president of Nigeria, come 2023.
According to him, the youth decided to come out early to nominate and inform Sanusi to prepare for the context before any other candidates with similar ambition.
