“I call on one of our leader Alhaji Kashim Imam to retrace his steps, as nobody would be allow to single handedly decide for the party, as a transition chairman, I am not aware of any inspiration of transition and membership registration Committee. The transition committee inaugurated by Alhaji Kashim Imam is here by declared null and void.”, Bolori said.

Bolori said “I thereby call on Imam to follow the party constitution, as failure to do so, we would follow any conditional way to reject it. The party is for all stakeholders and any division should be consultative”.
