This was even as the alliance expressed its readiness to work with either of the ruling All Progressives Congress APC or the Peoples Democratic Party PDP and any registered political party that presents good candidates in future elections in the country.
Reacting to the newly formed Coalition for New Nigeria CNN, another coalition of several political parties which Monday pledged to dislodge the APC from government in 2019, leader of the Mega Coalition Chief Perry Opara said his coalition was not in enmity with APC, PDP or any political party in Nigeria.
“Ours is a friendly coalition, an electoral alliance for the sole purpose of winning elections. We are not averse to any political party. We are ready to work with APC, PDP or any party that presents good candidates that will provide dividends of democracy and maintain peace and unity in Nigeria.
“At Mega Coalition, we see political parties as vehicles while candidates are passengers. The Mega Coalition is the motor park with many vehicles (political parties).
Every election is unique and has different peculiarities. Mega Coalition gives more attention to candidates than to political leaning.”
We have robust ideas on how to win 2019 elections and we shall try it first with Anambra elections”, Opara said.
According to him, the coalition will soon announce the consensus governorship candidates for Anambra elections and do same for Ekiti and Osun elections.
