Presidential Candidate of Alliance for New Nigeria (ANN) Fela Durotoye has said that he was not a politician and would retain the status if elected president.
On the reason for running for the highest office in Nigeria, Durotoye said his intention was to represent a generational change in the leadership structure of Nigeria away from politics.
“I have said it that I am not a politician and will never be a politician. I am a nation builder.
“I have always insisted that there is a need to take politics out of governance. We need nation builders so that we can have policy formulators and not politics.
“I think it is policies that change the life of the people and not politics, the economy of the nation is in the hands of the policy articulators
“We should be thinking of those that are ready to build this country through good policies and look away from the politicians who are just to milk the country, Durotoye said.
The acclaimed motivational speaker urged the electorate to look out for leaders that are trustworthy to move the nation forward and not those that want to get to
“We need honest people in governance, those that know the onions of good governance. So, in this light we need to talk to our people at the grassroots and educate them.
“There is a call to action because everybody’s grass has its roots and it is our responsibility to make the call for the desired change,” he said.
