Tinubu seeks conclusion of merger talks

Tinubu sitting with Buhari to conclude the merger talks


National Leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on Wednesday said the Action Congress of Nigeria, Congress for Progressive Change and the All Nigerian Peoples Party, are working to conclude the merger plan before June.

Tinubu also emphasized that a new party would emerge from the existing three leading opposition political parties in June.

Tinubu said:
''The merger thing is coming on fine. In every political environment you have hills and valleys. There are sincere people, our commitment to merger is not for us, it is for the country. It is not for today only, it is for tomorrow and the future of our youth, the liberty and freedom of the journalism profession.''

''We have to change Nigeria for the better. And the only way we could that is come together under one platform.''

“We are in the SouthWest, our political opponents would want us hemmed in, they want us restricted to South West.''
