He said, “We want to extend a formal invitation to Gov. Dauda Lawal to join the party to bring more development to the state.

“Doors are widely open to receive all defectors irrespective of their positions.

“We want to assure everyone of our readiness to give both new and old members equal treatment for effective democratic process.”

“We have receive over 100 political actors from various political parties, and we are giving them orientation on the party doctrine to enable them know how to go about their political activities within the party constitution.

“All intended defectors should come through their ward leadership before reaching local government, then state up to federal level.

“We believe in recognising grassroots politics because that’s the best way to reflect the mandate of the electorate,” he said.
