The Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) has said by the time it is through with its structural reforms and membership mobilisation, it would take over the entire northwest geopolitical zone of the country and Nigeria in general.
   
The party also disclosed that it has put machinery in motion to ensure that its forthcoming congresses and convention are free, fair, credible and inclusive.
   
Chairman, PRP Congress Planning Committee, Shuaib Abdullahi, speaking at an interactive session between the committee and the electoral members, said the March 11 wards and local councils congress gave a positive indication that the party is fast turning the masses’ first choice.

He said in line with the standards by the immediate past chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Jega, the PRP congress was peaceful, free and fair.

Meanwhile, some Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) officials have complained that the party’s state congress, which commenced yesterday, was illegal.

A group, led by the Secretary and Vice Chairman, Mr. Mark Kure Bityong and St. Kamven Enoch, in a letter, asked INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner, Kaduna State to ignore the party’s congress, as it was illegal.
