A statement by the Convener, Vincent Ezekwueme said Obasanjo had always stood for what is right and fair.
Ezekwueme said Obi would revamp and transform Nigeria in tandem with the philosophy and ideology of the founding fathers.

He urged well-meaning Nigerians to speak out against the “numerous challenges bedeviling the country”.
