How we had rancour-free national convention – ANRP

- By Fidelis Mac-Leva

The Abundant Nigeria Renewal Party (ANRP) has said its national convention held on February 17, 2018, was successful and rancour-free because it accorded all its registered members equal opportunit­ies to vie for positions without recriminat­ion.

National Chairman of ANRP, Tope Fasua, who led a delegation of the party executives on a visit to Daily Trust Corporate Headquarte­rs yesterday, said unlike what obtained during the convention­s of other political parties in Nigeria, theirs did not witness any bickering because of the transparen­t manner in which it was conducted.

He said the ANRP had also conducted successful congresses in 32 states of the country, adding that the party’s membership drive had already attracted over members across the country.

Describing the ANRP as youthcentr­ic, Fasua said the party was not only concerned about winning elections, but also effecting attitudina­l change among Nigerians, especially the youths, in order for them to take ownership of the country.

He said the party which was mainly driven by ideas would be fielding candidates into elective offices during the 2019 general elections to take over governance from the ruling APC and the main opposition PDP.

Fasua described Daily Trust as a credible medium that had maintained its independen­ce and standard over the years, while seeking the support of the newspaper in projecting the ANRP’s ideals to Nigerians. 50,000
