The Director General City Boy Movement Mr Francis Oluwatosin Shoga
has assured members of the group that their interest will be adequately protected under the watch of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Shoga Who was reacting to a publication in a National Daily: “Group Demands Inclusion in Government”, gave the members of the group hope that a meeting will be convened soon between them and the founder Mr Seyi Tinubu.
Speaking through a statement made available to our correspondent, the DG acknowledged the sacrifices made by the members of the group towards the emergence of president Tinubu, adding that their efforts have not been forgotten.
The statement read in part, “I want to express my utmost respect to all the distinguished state leaders and executives of the City Boy Movement for their relentless efforts to ensure the success of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 2023 presidential election. I also want to acknowledge my colleagues who have fought Mr. President’s struggle nationwide.
“I have confidence in the City Boy movement and the leaders representing the 36 states for their efforts to move the largest socio-political group in Nigeria today. I am also confident in your abilities. I appreciate the trust and overwhelming support that you have shown, and I assure you that our grand patron feels the same.
“I assure you that I have conveyed your concerns to our grand Patron. He has instructed me to inform you that he is deeply concerned about the issues you have raised. He has also agreed to meet with all of us after the Ramadan festivals to discuss those issues and the future of the Movement.
“Let’s take a moment to reflect on ourselves and resolve any issues before meeting with the movement’s leader. We should approach the discussion calmly and respectfully, presenting our grievances clearly and constructively.
“We must also significantly restructure the City Boy Movement to have a clear vision for the next three years. This restructuring will focus on devising plans and programs that can positively impact the members of our movement. The aim is to avoid similar problems in the future and ensure that our voices are heard frequently by our patron and other members of the present government.
“A date for our meeting will be communicated soon. Thank you, and God bless”.
