In a bid to endear the party to the hearts and minds of most Nigerians, the National Association of Government Approved Freight Forwarders (NAGAFF) has begun the sensitisation and mobilisation of maritime operators in order to give the largest votes to the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) come the 2023 general elections.
At the meeting of the major stakeholders in the association, the need to win more members for the party and also the need for the members of NAGAFF to mobilise and sensitize other maritime operators and Nigerians to vote for the NNPP for a new beginning was reiterated.
Speaking at the meeting, the Founder, Chairman Board of Trustees and Spiritual Leader of the party, Dr. Boniface Okechukwu Aniebonam, stated that there’s the need for NAGAFF to assist its sister political association, a political movement that is making waves across the nation.
Dr. Aniebonam called the attention of every member of NAGAFF to play a role in the party.

Doctor Aniebonam also warned his party faithfuls that they do not have the right to condemn any opponent either as a group or as individuals as he said that they are neither judges nor God who are in the positions to do so. He urged them all to leave the performance or lack of it by the present and past governments in the hands of Nigerians, but that if they observe any illegitimate activities on the parts of the people in power that these illegitimate activities should be reported to the appropriate quarters, he advised that they do not use the media to carry out trials, but to do the needful as advised.
Dr. Aniebonam said that the time for blame game is not now, but that this is the time to channel their collective wills and efforts to make for a strong party, win the incoming elections and go on to make the needed positive impact on the lives of Nigerians.

He further encouraged everyone present at the occassion to begin today in trying to reinvent the country with the openness of mind that will usher in the brotherly love, peace and harmony on the road to realising the inherent potentials in the country. He noted that the primary responsibilities of the government are the protection of lives and property and of course the welfare of the entire populace as he declared that what Nigeria presently needs is an intelligent and strong leader.
The NNPP spiritual leader who said he had the dream to found the party in 1999 stated that members of the association must form a well established committee that would impact positively on the party.
He charged members to reach out to all maritime operators with a view to supporting the NNPP which is a baby nurtured in the industry and founded to protect the industry.
Aniebonam stated that though NAGAFF is not a political party but that its members have the right to join a political party of their choice.

He informed his audience that an enlarged meeting of freight forwarders and all logistics managers and other players in the industry will soon be organized, reminding all that NAGAFF had already promised to mobilise 10 million voters for the NNPP presidential candidate in the forthcoming general elections.
He reiterated that for the maritime operators to protect their business they need to be closer to the government by way of playing vital roles in politics.
The founder donated one million naira to the Trust Fund Committee established to raise financial support for NNPP as he noted that a lot of money will be needed for its activities as the 2022 elections draw close.
Earlier in his speech, a former President of the association, Dr. Eugene Nweke had stated that NNPP has been consistent in growth because it was a child of vision. Nweke affirmed that the name NNPP has attracted a cream of credible personalities across the Nigerian society.
He called for the establishment of the NNPP professional group, noting that this is the time for maritime professionals to take position and join the moving train expected to take the mantle of leadership in Nigeria in 2023.
The former NAGAFF president enjoined members of the association to rise up for mobilisation and sensitization of other maritime operators and Nigerians.
In his own speech, the Deputy President of NAGAFF, Mr. Simeon Nwonu said that he could see that by the end of this year, NNPP will be number one political party in Nigeria and win overwhelmingly next year’s presidential election.
He charged all their members to become ambassadors of NNPP with a view of wooing people into the party.
Nwonu commended the founder for always being consistent in the pursuit of any goal he believes in.
He described Dr. Aniebonam has a man doesn’t believe in failure but has audacity the of hope.
On his part, the Chairman Board of Trustees of NAGAFF, Chief Chidiebere Enelemah maintained that the association is taking a stand to push NNPP to greater heights.
Chief Enelemah stressed that the NNPP will get a wider spread with the support of NAGAFF and that this will ensure that the political party further gets to all the grassroot areas of the six geopolitical zones of the country.
