Akin Adesina Rejects ₦100 Million APC Presidential Nomination Forms by politicoNG(op): 11:51am On May 17, 2022

Date: May 17, 2022

Statement by Dr. Akinwumi A. Adesina, President, African Development Bank

I have been extremely humbled by several calls from Nigerians at home and abroad that I should consider running for the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

I am very touched by all who have gone to great extent, with such huge sacrifices, of their own volition, to consider me worthy to be proposed for potential consideration. The coalition groups of youth, women, farmers, physically challenged and well-meaning Nigerians that have done this
have expressed their genuine free will, political right, freedom of expression and association for my consideration, with the interest of Nigeria at heart.

While I am deeply honored, humbled and grateful for all the incredible goodwill, kindness, and confidence, my current responsibilities at this time do not allow me to accept to be considered.

I remain fully engaged and committed to the mission that Nigeria, Africa and all the non-African shareholders of the African Development Bank have given me for Africa's development.

I remain fully focused on the mission of supporting the accelerated development and economic integration of Africa

May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

May God bless Africa.

Since he's aware of his current responsibilities at ADB, he should have reacted much more earlier when the rumors of his purported ambition was rife, rather than waiting till a nomination form was purchased at a princely sum of 100m and submitted on his behalf

By what standards sir?

What significant revolution or milestone achievement has he done at his space?

He is just like them. . With more Grammer and packaging. . He should sit down.

The only Yoruba guy I can vote for is Fashola judging by many works he did within Lagos. .

Unfortunately he is not around this time.

The only yoruba man I see at par with Peter Obi.
The only intelligent yoruba man.

Well... The yoruba race I know will always crave for an Agbero to a technocrat.
See them craving for an Agbero, a drug addict.

He won't get one vote from delegates in the primaries, that's why he rejected the form.

This I have seen.

This is someone who came out and clearified issues, but it seems other citizens like Goodluck Ebele prefer to keep citizens in the dark. When he is done with AFDB he should come we will consider him for the Job.

I believe he made a wise decision. Who would leave a world stage where world leaders have his attention with the utmost respect to play politics that will only eventually soil his integrity and reputation and moreso, with the most confused party in the entire human race?

Na asiwaju or Ameachi or all those useless politicians will corrupt him and malign him and .... i can't even begin to phantom the blackmail and backstabbing that will ensue from those the he commands respect from.
