Team Ribadu USA For Launch

As part of the on-going efforts by Nigerians in the Diaspora to support Dr. Nuhu Ribadu in the 2011 presidential election, Nigerians in the United States have formed the “Team Ribadu USA”. The North America chapter of the Team Ribadu also formed the “Ribadu for Nigeria Coalition” to bring
all Team Ribadu groups around the world under one umbrella. The “Ribadu for Nigeria Coalition” and the “Team Ribadu USA” will be launched on Sa...turday, December 4, 2010 at George Gershwin Junior High School, 800 Van Sicien Avenue (Van Sicien on Linden), Brooklyn, New York City, at
4pm.

The USA chapter of the Team Ribadu, through its coordinators in all of the fifty States of the United States, has embarked on series of activities in the Nigerian communities in the USA to mobilize and sensitize Nigerians to support Nuhu Ribadu’s candidacy in the 2011 presidential election. Between now and the 2011 presidential election, the Team Ribadu USA plans to raise $1m dollars among Nigerians in the USA to support Ribadu’s campaign. This amount is expected to be used to mobilize Nigerians to register and vote for Ribadu as the next president of Nigeria.

Apart from calling their families and friends in Nigeria frequently, asking them to vote for Ribadu as the next president of Nigeria, the Team Ribadu USA urges all Team Ribadu groups in the Diaspora to generate questions and answers that remind people about the “Nuhu Ribadu for President” project
in the Western Union Money Transfer question and answer section when sending money to Nigeria. That is a good way to remind their loved-ones to campaign and vote for Nuhu Ribadu in the 2011 presidential elections.

The Team Ribadu USA also charged its members to make a sacrifice in the coming year by going to Nigeria to register and vote for Ribadu as the next president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The Team Ribadu USA believes by so doing, Nigerians in the Diaspora will be part of the efforts to urgently
rescue the Nigerian nation from the brink of collapse predicted in recent times.

The Team Ribadu USA will use its Facebook page and the “Ribadu for Nigeria Coalition” website – www.ribadufornigeriacoalition.org – as the main rallying point for all of its members and other Team Ribadu groups. Nigerians, home and abroad, irrespective of party affiliation, social, and economic backgrounds are free to sign up and donate their widow’s mites to the Ribadu Campaign Organization through the website.
