OPN Holds Maiden Caucus Meeting

.. fixes inauguration for April 23rd in Ughelli

The leadership of the fastest growing political network in Nigeria, Okpurughre Progressive Network led by it’s chairman, Paul Okpurughre, today held it’s maiden caucus meeting in Ughelli to chart a pathway forward for the organisation.

In a well attended meeting which took place at the conference hall of Wetland Hotel Ughelli, the group threw their weight behind the All Progressive Congress, APC.

Speaking to newsmen after the closed door meeting, director general of OPN, Idi Presley, said the mission of the group is to canvass for good governance and inclusiveness for all citizens.

“OPN is a never before seen type of political organisation in Nigeria. Our focus unlike others is not just to be a supporting vehicle for our political party and it’s candidates during elections, our primary assignment is to canvass for good governance and inclusiveness.

“We are a people first organisation and we believe in accountability, good governance, inclusiveness and proactive leadership.

“We all are progressives and it’s only fitting we align our ideologies with that of the All Progressive Congress, APC.

“We are setting our structure from the state level all the way to the units at grassroots. OPN will be a grassroots based organisation, with membership open to those in the diaspora.

“I urge every well meaning citizen who desires to see proactive leadership, good governance and inclusiveness to key into our vision and register to be a member of OPN today”, Presley stated.

In a similar development, April 23rd has been fixed for the official inauguration of the state caucus and local government working committee.

The event which will take place at Oghara, headquarters of Ethiope West have been themed the GATHERING OF CHAMPIONS.
