The City Boy Movement has explained that the postponement of its planned inauguration in Kwara State was due to adjustments to its schedule and planning arrangements, and not any disagreement with the All Progressives Congress (APC) or the state government.

In a statement signed by its Director-General, Francis Oluwatosin Shoga, the group dismissed reports suggesting that the event was boycotted or cancelled for political reasons.

It said the postponement became necessary to ensure proper coordination and effective participation of relevant stakeholders.

“The programme was not boycotted or cancelled for political reasons,” the statement said.

The Movement reaffirmed its commitment to working with the APC structure, Kwara State Government, party stakeholders, community leaders, youth and women groups and other relevant stakeholders.

According to the statement, the group remains focused on grassroots mobilisation, youth engagement and support for the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu.

It said a new date for the Kwara State inauguration would be communicated through its official channels.

The Movement urged members of the public and the media to rely on its official statements regarding its activities and disregard reports attributing the postponement to a political boycott or internal disagreement.

The clarification followed reports and speculation surrounding the postponement of the Kwara programme. (The Sun)
