In a press statement issued by its State publicity secretary, Cajetan Duke, he informed members and the general public that the primaries for the nomination of chairmanship and Councilor candidates have been concluded.<\/p>\n

Duke said: \u201cAny information circulating about harmonization to the list by any person or group, regardless of their standing in our party, should be disregarded and discountenanced.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur party is committed to upholding a transparent and credible electoral process, as assured by the leader of our party, His Excellency, Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe therefore urge our candidates and former aspirants to be vigilant and wary of mischievous elements that may attempt to sow discord or spread misinformation, that are capable of undermining the credibility and stability of our party.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to note that our party\u2019s strength lies in its unity and commitment to the values that have brought us this far.\u201d<\/p>\n

He enjoined members to come together in order for the party to move forward with confidence and determination.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are poised to make a reasonable sacrifice to ensure the unity of our party and the success of the forthcoming elections, and we invite all our members and supporters to join us on this journey,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
