The group made the remarks during their press briefing at the end of their three days of fasting and praying for peaceful and credible 2023 general elections.

It is existential reality and irrefutable truth that to rescue, redeem, reform, revamp and restore our country to the path of peace, security, robust economy, rapid socioeconomic development, progress, prosperity and self_
sufficient, we must live above self, ethnicity, religiosity, statism and clans cleavages and votes for competent, character, capacity, capability, contentment, prudent, patriotism and selflessness to restore hope, good governance and tackles corruption, insecurity, unemployment, nepotism and favouritism.
It is noteworthy that after thorough and exhausted appraisals of antecedents of various candidates vying for the presidency, we concluded out of patriotism, the right sense of judgement and justice that Mr Peter Obi of the Labour Party is the most benevolent, caring, compassionate, prudent, humble, honest and transparent candidate that has the wherewithal and panacea towards solving numerous challenges and problems bedevilling the country.
Fellow Nigerians Obi is the best among all the presidential candidates, let us collectively and collaboratively vote him in, he will certainly perform beyond expectations having been tried, tested and trusted. We must properly utilize this rare privilege and opportunity to take back our country, and be part of those will who help to enthrone charismatic, God-fearing servant leaders.
We commend Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, Chief Edwin Clarke, Gen. T.Y Danjuma, Dr Bitrus Porgu, Dr Pius Ezeife, Dr Doyin Okupe, Prof.Pat Utomi, Aisha Yusuf, Chief Samuel Ortom, Sen.Victor Umeh, Dr Oby Ezekwesili, Hon. Val Ozigbo and others for standing, believing and defending what is right, fair, just and worthwhile.
We equally condemned with outrageous disdain the dumping of PVC
in a bush at Nnewi. It is pertinent for INEC, security agents and the Anambra State government to swing into action and arrest criminals sabotaging our electoral system.
The Electoral Officer for Nnewi North should be interrogated to tell Nigerians how the voters card in his custody got inside the bush, while registrants who went to collect their voter cards find it extremely difficult, if not impossible to access and collect their PVCs.
The culprits should be arrested, detained and prosecuted to act as deterrents to others and to restore people’s confidence in the INEC and electoral process.
