The RNGN clinged on the possibility of a better and renewed Nigeria from the national to the states and Local Government Area levels.
The attendees were optimistic that achieving the new Nigeria is possible through genuine and committed Obidient Candidates that are obviously using the Labour Party as an efficient and effective vehicle to the destination.
Members of the Obidients group and other electorates present during the meeting stressed that Nigerians are tired of voting and installing candidates that are leveraging on structures and capacities of criminality, making reference to the words of the Labour Party Presidential candidate Mr Peter Obi.
