National Coordinator, Chief Perry Opara, said the mission of the new political platform is to provide a very focused and patriotic body deviod of negative traits of impunity and confusion.
“The major people who are in the party are former members of the PDP who disenchanted by the high level of corruption, high level of impunity and high-handedness in the PDP. They have decided to form something very new and they are of the opinion that they should hand over the party to younger elements who are less corrupt and who can be able to fight for the interest of the people.” he said.
Opara is a close associate of the estranged PDP chieftain and former Presidential aide, Alhaji Ali Ahmed Gulak. He however declined to mention names of those PDP and APC members floating the party, saying no one among them has given permission to make it open.
