The Convener of the movement, Mr. Nonso Nnamani, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday that the academy, known as PowerShift Political Academy, is open for youths between the ages of 18 and 45 years.
Nnamani said that the academy would assist youthful politically-ambitious persons to know how to go about their political dreams in the right way and win the trust of the people within a reduced cost.
According to him, the academy’s curriculum runs in such a way that young aspiring politicians will learn how to use the powers of social media, social engagement, volunteerism and advocacy to push their political frontiers and win elective positions.
