In the wake of the emergence of Nazi Okwudili Nwa- Anyajike as its presidential candidate, National Rescue Movement (NRM) has urged its presidential aspirants not to feel aggrieved by the outcome of the primaries. According to the party, “Whosoever that emerges should not see himself or herself as a winner, but the representative of the Youths and Women Community, and our party flag bearer.”
NRM National Chairman, Hon. Isaac Chigozie Udeh appealed while addressing 241 accredited delegates to the party’s Special National Convention in Abuja.
The National Chairman told the gathering that “NRM was poised to rescue Nigerians and our Country from the stagnant state we have found ourselves today; State of insecurity across the country, state of the failed education system, state of the state of a failed economy, state of the failed energy system, state of persistent hardship in the land and a failed leadership structure.”
