Kawu Baraje, leader of the nPDP (breakaway members of the Peoples’ Democratic Party) bloc has announced that the group will continue discussions and decide its status within the All Progressives Congress, APC, this week.
Baraje made the announcement on Sunday via a statement issued on Sunday by the Kawu Baraje Media Office in Ilorin, the Kwara state capital.
He said the group has been meeting with several Nigerians and that the “time is now ripe” for them to make their position known.
Baraje said. “We will make our positions known to Nigerians in the first week of July. By then, we would have concluded our consultations and come up with our position on all the things we stood for which are not for personal gains but rather in the general interest of the downtrodden masses.
“We have been meeting regularly and the time is now ripe to make our positions known to all well-meaning Nigerians.
“The cooperate interest of the citizens of this country and a united Nigeria where no man is oppressed is paramount and very dear to our hearts.”
The nPDP group has been locked in series of controversies with the immediate past leadership of the ruling APC over claims of marginalisation and exclusion from the affairs of the party.
