We want a Nigeria that institutions are allowed to perform their roles without political interference, where we can draw a very distinct line between politics, politicking and governance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is not the country we have today.

We reject violence in the political process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe that people can disagree and not be disagreeable.
