PRESS RELEASE
01/11/2022

FGN's Sanctioning and blocking of TBN'S Bank Account

TBN Global Leadership has been notified that its bank account with keystone Bank has been unjustifiably blocked by a government order.

We see this development as an act of political persecution, suppression and intimidation from the powers that be to stop this youth driven grassroots movement from carrying out activities protected by the constitution.

TBN is a socio-political movement and a non-governmental organisation made up of well meaning patriotic Nigerians, actively engaged in promoting good governance and democratic ideals in Nigeria.

It is our core value to support competent and credible candidates during elections leveraging the energy of youths who will determine electoral outcomes at all levels irrespective of the political party.

Against the 2023 general elections, TBN Global Leadership has endorsed Mr Peter Obi and his running mate Dr Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed of the Labour Party as the most credible and competent CANDIDATES.

TBN has publicly solicited and equally received donations for the sole purpose of funding grassroots activities to support the ObiDatti Presidential Campaign activities.

We categorically state that blocking our account or any manner of repression will in no way stop us from supporting the ObiDatti 2023 mandate. It is our constitutional right as citizens of Nigeria to support and promote the candidate of our choice.

Therefore, we appeal to the relevant authorities to reconsider this sanction. We also urge members of the public especially our donors to bear with us while we seek redress to unblock our account.

Signed:

Danjuma Garba Musa,
Spokesperson.

TAKEBACKNAIJA is a people-oriented grassroots movement aimed at galvanizing and building a coalition of like-minded progressives that advocate for good governance in Nigeria. We are a diverse group of young people from across all tribes, regions, religions, and tongues united by one purpose – A Nigeria that works for everyone!

Our goal is to identify, endorse, and support visionary, competent, and impeccably qualified political office aspirants in Nigeria irrespective of their political party’s affiliations.

To achieve this would require a collective effort, commitment, and sacrifice. Hence, we call on every well-meaning Nigerian both at home and in the diaspora to be part of this people’s movement that is aimed at birthing a better Nigeria for all. You can volunteer, sponsor, or donate to help the TBN achieve its objectives.

The Bank didn't freeze their account, the account was blocked by a government order. That is very very wrong whichever way you look at it! I will advice they take legal actions.

Imagine an NGO opening an account for political purposes on behalf of a registered political party. Peter Obi has turned an election into a ponzi scheme whereby every dick and harry operate different accounts for cashing out on gullible zombidients. While Obi operates different accounts, LP has a seperate account, the national youth leader has his own, some media influencers have theirs, and now an NGO is also operating its own account.
Obi has broken so many electoral laws and it's high time the law caught up with him. This man has reduced the country's election into a butt of jokes. Kudos to the NFIU for alerting the appropriate authorities regarding the ultra vires activities of the so called NGO, especially at the time of currency redesigning in which several drug barons are looking to dump those stacked cash into any available accounts.

This APC desperation at power grabbing, I'm wondering what they even want to build on. Two important sectors- the economy and security are currently at zero level. Roads are deteriorating. corruption is at highest level since independence.
The voters desperately need a new face. So if Tinubu or Atiku rigs themselves to power, they will end up only ruling their households.
Nigerians have chosen their president.
Obi/Datti or no one else

Hypocrisy kills. Same government and NFIU that couldn't detect when UAE-based Nigerian BH sponsors wired staggering amount of monies for terrorism activities into Nigeria but were earlier identified and arrested by the UAE government

"...It is no longer in doubt that government is obsessed with going after perceived opponents and critical media, while terrorists and their sponsors are allowed to freely transact business without being monitored and arrested...."

Imagine an Obi who ordered his Fidelity bank to grant a whooping 1billion naira loan to PDP, which has become a bone of crisis between Ayu and Wike. Is such a man not rich enough to fund his election?. A man who declared himself richer than American President. So, why is he fooling his zombidients with go fund me accounts?

Some people are presently using Obi to scam Nigerians. These fraudulent NGos will be soliciting funds and donations from Nigerians on behalf of Obi, hyping Obi on Social media and those funds will go into their private pockets.

The Obi group and sympathizers are just cashing out on gaulible Nigerians.

1. If u know you don't have money, why are u contesting for Nigeria president.
2. Is it only when you are president that u can change d country.
3. Have you transformed your family, village, Local government and state?
4. Your antecedent , saving state money in your personal bank( fidelity bank) money that supposed to be spent on projects.
5. Weak and insensitive leadership. Someone that's always driven by his own self interest.

If Obi get 50,000 votes in Nigeria, then he really tried.


If the contest is between Tinubu and Atiku
