A popular public affairs analyst who craved anonymity said:

“I consider Professor Imumolen's New Year's Day broadcast to Nigerians as one of the smartest move a politician, especially one campaigning to be Nigeria's president, could have made on a day of festivities and one which symbolises newness, rebirth.
“Apart from being novel, Professor Imumolen did a lot to open the eyes of Nigerians to other options to choose from during this year's presidential elections.
“And, contrary to widespread belief, Nigerians now know that they have a truly young, energetic, highly educated and passionate candidate like Professor Imumolen to vote for as an alternative if they so choose.
“I have no doubt that the young professor has been able to adequately and successfully sell his candidacy to a new set of Nigerians who have now had the opportunity to see his quality and what he can do if allowed to become president.
