PNM Members

You are welcome to the Progressive Noble Members (PNM), an organisation and pressure group established to advance the socio-political interests of Indigenes and Non-Indigenes of Ojo Local Government, Iba and Oto-Awori LCDA Chapters.

This association is located in Lagos State. It has the vision of becoming the preferred movement, since Non-Awori speaking Yoruba and Other tribes of the country who are residents of these areas constitute 85% voting population according to the National Population Commission data collated.

And by virtue of Federal Electoral Law, a Nigerian who has lived in a place for a period of six months and above has the right to vote and be voted for. Therefore, PNM feels it is an injustice on the part of Nigerians who have lived for a limited number of years in certain places, with their properties and investments to be regarded as strangers. Such views from natives translate to violation of their fundamental human rights.

However, PNM is not contending with traditional, cultural, land and heritable rights of Kings, Baale(s) and the Natives. This Movement believes in an egalitarian society; therefore it upholds the following values and principles:

* Equal Rights for Justice
* To solicit for pure political primaries for selection of political office holders in Ojo, Iba and Oto-Awori L.G.As
* To eradicate political marginalisation of Non-Awori speaking people
* To encourage participation of Non-Indigenes in the governance and control of Ojo, Iba and Oto-Awori L.G.As
* To promote honesty, integrity and professional political ethics for a new Nigeria.
* That there should be respect for the liberty, political freedom and rights of citizens
* That there should be support and responsiveness to the aspirations of credible Awori and Non-Awori speaking persons aspiring for political positions
* Incorporation of Non-Awori speaking Yoruba, South-South, Igbo and Arewas into Ojo, Iba and Oto-Awori L.G.As corporate governance
* To resist all forms of political intimidation of Indigenes and Non-Indigene members of PNM
* To mount Pressure on Ojo, Iba and Oto-Awori L.G.A governments to provide social amenities, as to improve the standard of living of Indigenes and Non- Indigenes’ dominated areas and communities
* That the corporate existence of Indigenes and Non-indigenes must be redefined.
* The rights of Members of PNM will be pursued constitutionally and with vigour .
