So what were the criteria used? With Atiku and some others on that list I want to believe NO criterion was used and so this list should be ignored.
Atiku is even far better than so many of them thr. Just wonderin how Babangida Aliyu entered d list

fydence: The Arewa Youth Movement, after a rigorous screening exercise, has listed 60 Nigerians, most of them of northern extraction, to succeed Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan as President of the Federal republic of Nigeria. These are persons they believe can tackle the present level of underdevelopment, insecurity and disunity in the country.
Although the nominees cut across different ideological orientations and political parties, they are mainly liberals, progressives and even radicals. Three names have been selected from each state, on the basis of geo-political representation and considerations that favour merit as well as ethnic, gender and religious inclusiveness. Clearly, some states have stronger candidates than others, and the process is continuous, based on agreed criteria for further pruning.
In drawing up the list, consideration was also given to leaders from different vocational backgrounds. Additional criteria included credibility, good education, consistency, reasonable levels of low or lack of corruption, public sector experience, patriotism, national and international acceptability, and firmness and strength of character to implement fundamental development projects.
The Movement is very optimistic that one of its nominees will emerge as the next President of Nigeria, after a continuing process of processing, including public debates and public scrutiny of the potentials of the candidates. The other nominees will then be expected to support the winner to run the country well on the basis of collective leadership.
If for any reason, the President is to come from the South, three nominees:

Your exclusion of Goodluck Johnathan is the luck he has to be the candidate on one side challenging 59 others, that is because the INTELLIGENT Donald Duke will not mellow to the ignorance of challenging Goodluck.

I believe there is no vacancy in aso rock so they should go and sit down till 2019 when a southern man will take over the reins.




BTW,WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?I DON'T EVEN KNOW THEM,THE MOVEMENT IS IT A FACTION OF BOKO HARAM?
Re: Northern Youths Shortlist 60 Candidates For President by Nobody: 10:49am On Jul 19, 2013
For now the list is likely contestants to the chairmanship of Arewa Consultative Forum.


No vacancy in Aso rock till 2019. Fresh air will continue to breeze throughout the Nigeria landscape.

Even witches and wizards recognises GEJ as their ruler...till they says otherwise!!!
