Election 2024: We have nothing in common – PNP tells PNC

Janet Nabla, the founder of the People’s National Party (PNP), has categorically denied allegations that her party is appropriating the ideologies and principles of the People’s National Convention (PNC).

She asserts that the PNP shares no commonalities with the PNC and has no intention of poaching its members or misleading voters.

The PNC has appealed to the Electoral Commission (EC), requesting the withholding of the final certificate for the registration of the PNP.

In a statement issued to the EC on July 16, the PNC’s legal representatives expressed concerns about the similarity between the names PNP and PNC, given that the PNP was the predecessor party that led to the formation of the PNC. They argue that this similarity could potentially confuse voters.

In an interview with Umaru Sanda Amadu on Eyewitness News on Citi FM on Thursday, Nabla strongly refuted this claim.

She urged the PNC’s leader, “Mr Apasera, work hard with your PNC. Trust me, we have nothing in common. Our party symbols and things are different.

“The truth is that we don’t want anybody from the PNC who loves you to come to us, that is the truth. We don’t because we know the challenges of the PNC.”

She added, “When you have a new party you will want to work with people who love the truth, transparency, and have integrity.

“Those are the people we want to work with and believe me, those who love the PNC now cannot qualify to be under those brackets I have just mentioned.”
