Osun LG Poll: NNPP Unveils Date For Primary Election
-Resolves To Field Capable Youth As Candidates
As political parties in Osun warm up for the council poll, leadership of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) has announced it’s readiness to accommodate aspiring youths.
In a statement issued by the party’s Chairman and Acting Secretary, Dr. Tosin Odeyemi and Ayegbaju Celestinah respectively, it noted that various challenges facing Nigeria economy now require fresh blood to tackle them.
NNPP revealed that youthful knowledge needed to be encouraged now as there can be no positive effect if things are being done with the same approach from same set of people.
The statement reads: ‘Now that Osun State Independent Electoral Commission (OSIEC) has directed political parties that are interested in participating in the forthcoming council polls to hold their primaries between July 22nd, 2024 and August 23rd, 2024, our party has resolved to field capable candidates in all local governments across the state.
”We have written to inform OSIEC that our party’s primary for nominations of chairmanship and councillorship candidates will hold between August 22nd and 23rd, 2024.
”Knowing fully well that the destiny of our people at the grassroot depends on the kind of leadership they have at the council level, we want to make a change.
”We believe that when youths are giving ample opportunity to serve their people, things will work out smoothly as expected and there will be unprecedented development. They will have enough strength to paddle the affairs of the local governments which will in turn make life better for the masses.
”NNPP, as a party, believes in the ability of our youths to lead, hence, the need to compel sincere youths who are interested in leading their local governments to join our party so as to participate in the party primary.
”We believe that OSIEC will conduct a free, fair and credible election to change people’s initial wrong perception of the commission.
”Osun NNPP will sure shock the ruling party as we have mobilised our members; both old and new, towards winning in the February 22, 2025 local government election”
