A new
political platform believed to be packaged by fronts of aggrieved bigwigs of
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has come into being.
At
the National Executive Council/National retreat held by the promoters of the
yet-to- be registered party, the Peoples Mega Party (PMP), the National
Coordinator, Chief Perry Opara, told the delegates that 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.”
Opara
who is a close associate of the estranged PDP chieftain and former Presidential
aide, Alhaji Ali Ahmed Gulak said that apart from the bigwigs from PDP, there
are others from even the ruling party, All Progressives Congress (APC) desirous
of pitching their tent with the new party.
However,
Opara 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.
But
that does not mean that it is only people from the PDP, there are also people
from the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) chapters in many states. There
are people from the Labour Party and there are some disenchanted people from
the ruling party
