My name is Nims Obunge, and I believe that London is a city we can all be proud to call our home and we should work together to preserve and protect all that represents London as we step up to make it the best city in the world!
I believe our city is now at a point where we can no longer afford to hand our destiny to politicians alone. Neither do I believe one political party has the answer to the many challenges we face. A collaborative effort is the only way we can see our city prosper.
To achieve this I have decided to run as a truly independent Mayoral candidate in May 2021. I will step up and work together with professionals and practitioners to make our city safe, affordable, electric and prosperous.
Over the next few months I will be listening to the voices of Londoners – the voices of those who live, learn and work in our city. I will champion your voice, working hard to achieve the high aspirations we all share for London. I look forward to you joining The Big Policy Conversation.
Over the last 30 years I have served in different roles across London working as a financial adviser, faith leader (Freedom’s Ark), CEO of The Peace Alliance, governor of an FE college, and been a board member for different government agencies including the London Criminal Justice Partnership. I believe my experiences within London and my continued position as an advocate against violence in our streets and homes make me the ideal candidate to put Londoners’ priorities first.
Please join me on this exciting quest as we step up for London and make it truly ours!
