The CNPP, in a statement signed by its Secretary-General, Chief Willy Ezugwu, on Tuesday, also commended the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, for listening to the voice of the people by withdrawing his earlier suit seeking to restrain the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) from stopping his presidential bid.

The umbrella body of all registered political parties and political associations in the country, in its reaction on the occasion of the 2022 International Women’s Day (IWD), asked members of the Senate “to revisit the rejected pro-female gender bills to align the country with the theme of this year’s IWD celebration, which is #BreakTheBias.”

In a statement signed by its Secretary General, Chief Willy Ezugwu, the CNPP said it is “constrained to break silence on the matter as it has become very clear that government at all levels have failed to differentiate self-determination struggles from secessionist war.”

Reacting to the call in Abuja, the Secretary General of the CNPP, Chief Willy Ezeugwu, noted that “the CBN Governor had not done anything to warrant the call for his resignation hence PDP does not enjoy the support of other opposition political parties in this call.

The CNPP noted that “withholding assent will be the only proof that Mr. President is not part of the conspiracy to undermine the country’s electoral process”, saying that “members of the National Assembly have remained number one enemy of Nigeria’s democracy and a major hindrance to conscious efforts to progressively deepen  Nigerian democracy to enhance good governance.”
