Nwoko said the date for the event is December 7 at the Moremi Room, Sheraton Lagos Hotel, in Ikeja, Lagos by 12noon.

During a media parley in Ikeja, he explained that the new developmental goals called Sustainable Development Goals was now too complicated for ordinary citizens.

He wondered how ordinary people; who could not completely digest the original eight goals; would comprehend the new seventeen goals with its outlandish objectives and agenda?

He said it was a conspiracy to frustrate citizens from following the attainment of the global agenda; especially in this era of global recession and financial discrepancies in Nigeria.
