I have influence; I have credibility; I have friends from around the world and you want me to use this to just do civil society alone? No. Nigeria cannot go down on her knees when we have people like you and me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the Green Nigerian Movement, we have committed that we will mobilise 40 million votes. Yes, that is a lot of work. There is no democratically elected president in Nigeria that has gotten 40 million votes, but then again, we cannot make change if we don\u2019t change the dynamics of how things are done.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI cannot do it alone. The Green Nigeria Movement cannot do it alone. We need each and everyone of you. We will not agonise, rather we will consolidate. We will organise and mobilise, but most importantly, we will educate the people at the grassroots to understand the power that they hold.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEach and everyone of us, as we mobilise and organise, we can decide who becomes the next president of the Federal Republic republic of Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lawal said as he turns 35, he will dedicate his time to building the next generation of emerging young leaders.<\/p>\n<p>He also spoke on launching the Ewah Eleri School of Leadership, named after his mentor, adding that \u00a0the school will take 20 young Nigerians annually to Afikpo to learn leadership skills from Ewah Eleri.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am transitioning and investing my time to building the next generation of emerging young leaders. So today, I\u2019m launching the mentorship initiative in honour of Ewah Eleri and it will be called The Ewah Eleri Leadership School,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery year, I will carefully select 20 young people who will travel to Afikpo in Ebonyi state from across Nigeria to go and learn from Ewah.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe knowledge and wisdom he transferred into me, I want to create that opportunity to other young people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He encouraged youths to quit complaining and begin actively seeking for leadership opportunities, adding that \u201cNigeria is where it is today because the youths have allowed it\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe there is a renewed opportunity here, a renewed hope for young people and the youths to take their place in Nigeria\u2019s political history,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chief Executive Officer of Connected Development (CODE), Hamzat Lawal has stated that he will be involved in partisan politics going forward.
