“Very soon political activities will kick start and we want to be in the forefront to prove our commitment as a group to be reckoned with in political participation in Nigeria,” Jolly stated.

Also speaking, the General Secretary of the association, Comrade Aliyu Ibrahim Shaibu recalled that the association was the first organisation to send a letter of support and commendation to Tinubu on his presidential ambition.

He said though, no response was received from his political organisation but Ieaders and members of AMFON are still solidly behind him in his ambition to become Nigeria’s next president in 2023.


He appealed to the APC Presidential Flagbearer not to dump the group if he eventually becomes the president as from next year.

“The aim of our gathering here today is to mobilize and ensure that he secure significant votes from us.

” We are optimistic that Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the helm of affairs in Nigeria will transform the economy through innovations and Industrialize the country to a greater heights,” he said.
