NCFront Launches Coalition on Electoral Reforms, Not Mega Party

NATIONAL Consultative Front (NCFront) comprising Leaders of Conscience has said it plans to launch a national political coalition on October 1, 2021, not a mega party as speculated in some media reports.

The group which made the clarification in a statement signed its Media Assistant, Olubori Obafemi, said the agenda of the political coalition is to push for electoral reforms specifically in the the area of electronic transmission of result during elections to avoid rigging.

“For the umpteenth time and the avoidance of doubt, the leadership of the NCFront wishes to state clearly that what is being planned for October 1st, 2021 is an all stakeholders summit on electronic transmission of election results in Nigeria, where a major national coalition of all like minded stakeholders and Leaders of thought will be launched to save Nigeria from another round of electoral rigging come 2023,” the statement reads.

According to the statement, leadership of NCFront was yet to schedule a date for launch of the Mega political movement.

“As for the launch of the Mega Movement Party no date has been fixed for that as discussions and negotiations are still ongoing as regards how to make the adopted national party inclusive and formidable ahead of the 2023 by the Merger Committee.”
