He noted that the mission of the group is not to play politics but to ensure the implementation of the good governance the people deserve.
He pointed out that his essence of joining APC with his teeming supporters is to work with APC elected and appointed leaders in the development and transformation of the state and Nigeria at large, while urging that members of the party should not see him as a threat nor as an opponent.
