The Chairperson of the National Caretaker Committee, a leadership faction of polarised Labour Party, Senator Nenadi Usman, said the party aimed to become a home for “all unhappy Nigerians.”
Usman stated this on Wednesday at the inaugural meeting of the LP Caretaker Committee where she remarked that the committee is out to reconcile warring members and position the party as positive alternative to alleged past and present misgovernance.
“We are on a rescue mission, not just for the Labour Party, but for our dear nation, Nigeria. The interest this committee has generated extends beyond party lines. I have received numerous telephone calls, not just from party members, but also from people in other political parties who have told me that if we get this right, we will work together. So we have a huge task ahead.
“Our party, by the grace of Almighty God, will become a platform for all disenfranchised and unhappy Nigerians. For people who are dissatisfied with the way things are going, we will be the platform for them, by the grace of God. Therefore, we must take this significant national assignment seriously,” the former minister said.
