A preacher and international human developer that aims to rebirth Nigeria.

Felix Johnson Osakwe, also known as FJO, is a preacher, dignitary, and business management specialist. He was born in Delta State, South-South Nigeria, and is of Ukwuani descent. At the young age of 19, he responded to God’s call and went on to serve in various capacities in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) as part of the initial generation of evangelists. Eventually, he founded the Christ Evangelical and Prayer Ministry (CEPM), which now has locations in Nigeria, the U.S., and India. Through his theological and structural development seminars, youth ambassadorial activities, motivating speaking both abroad and at home, and tireless efforts in mentoring youth throughout the world, he worked hard and rose to fame. The 57 years old aspirant is a dedicated supporter of young people and their limitless potential.

Since 2017, He has held the positions of International Peace Ambassador and Director of Executive Affairs for the Universal Peace Federation, a group at the United Nations Economic and Social Council (UNESCO) with special consultative status. He has built a global professional network of corporate leaders, political allies, and partners in America and Europe through his diplomatic skills. He believes the Nigerian Government needs new leaders who would integrate modern politics into it, believing that the standard must adapt to global progress. He is eager to create a new, dynamic, and unconstrained Nigeria. FJO has again gone rogue with his presidential ambitions. Same as in 2018, when he first entered politics.

Osakwe believes Nigeria needs a rebirth and is ready to give it all.

After a contentious primary process in Abuja, Ambassador Felix Johnson Osakwe was chosen as the presidential nominee of the Nigeria Rescue Movement, NRM For the 2023 presidential election in Nigeria, while Ambassador Yahhaya Kyabo Fagge was selected as the candidate’s running partner. Hon. Isaac Chigozie Udeh, The party’s National Chairman, told reporters in Abuja as INEC wraps down the nomination process. He promised that his party would redeem Nigeria from its inherent faults and that Nigerians should prepare for a new nation in which all opinions matter and all sections of society are stakeholders. He stated that when granted the duty in 2023, citizens should embrace substantial and practical transformation from the routine.

Furthermore, he explained that this shift and rebirth would be complex because there are many who will try to stop it. Reactions that oppose change are the adversaries of Nigerian leadership aspirations. He wants a new Nigeria in which everyone has equal opportunity. In 2018, as FJO ran for president on the platform of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), he saw all sorts of conspiracies play out in the party’s fiercely contested primary elections, where he competed for the party’s presidential ticket against the likes of Professor Jerry Gana, former Minister for Information and Culture; the former governor of Cross River state, John Dara, Donald Duke, and Prof. Ambassador Iyorwuese Hagher, who once served as the Nigerian High Commissioner to Canada.

His international engagement will be utilized to the country’s advantage.

FJO is a man with extensive experience in making decisions and engaging in economic engagement at the top levels, having dealt with high-level interactions with global leaders and economic players. As a result of his efforts to foster positive relations between the United States and Nigeria, Land Markers International, an organization headed by General Lai Yusuf, was able to appoint him to serve as its United States Coordinator. This position has been crucial in attracting a number of significant foreign investments to the country. His proficiency in industrial governance and economic management has been attested to by numerous people, including members of international development agencies, prominent politicians from a variety of political parties, and specialists in human development.

Speaking further, if elected president in 2023, the NRM candidate has pledged to prioritize developing renewable energy sources to prevent the destruction of the globe. According to the human development specialist, the continued fossil fuel combustion in the Niger Delta and other parts of the country is a major contributor to the spread of diseases amongst Nigerians. He noted that while rules exist to prevent criminal behavior, enforcing them is difficult because residents shoulder the burden of oil and gas development while governments benefit.

Arewa Recruiters considered Osakwe as the best man for the job.

A northern socio-political organization known as the Arewa Recruiters, AR, gave Osakwe their support for the president of Nigeria during the ceremony in Abuja, where forms were being submitted. Ibrahim Ishaq, the group’s leader, said the country desperately needs an adorable, refined, educationally inclined man of good personal integrity to succeed the governing party. Ishaq said Arewa Recruiters discovered that the Ambassador is capable of leading the nation to unity and economic success. Also, Osakwe remarked that Nigeria’s over 200 million people need a new start and that he is joining to free the country and its people from terrible administration. He prioritized security, education, enormous youth empowerment and capacity development, unification and peaceful partnership of all sectors of Nigerian society, and employment generation.
