Kohima, August 14 (MExN): Members of Azo-led DAN Co-ordination Committee today appealed to all legislators to come together and work for the development of the State rather than pursue self-interests.
“Our selfish motives must not make us forget ‘our roots’. Join the mainstream and make the party stronger than ever,” appealed a statement from DAN Coordination Committee chairman, Kuzholuzo (Azo) Nienu, JDU president & member DAN Alliance, Y. Rhekkhum and NCP State Convenor & Member DAN Alliance, Vanthungo Odyuo.
Regretting that the NPF internal crisis has been dragging on with fresh confrontations within the party, it said “the matter has been dithering for too long, and we feel that this should be settled once and for all.”
They prayed that the “Cock” party continues to strive for excellence, peace, and harmony and live up to people’s expectation. “We, as the DAN Alliances members, are perturbed and hereby express our sincere concern for the NPF party as DAN partners,” the statement read. “As leaders, we should be able to sit across the table and discuss matters to sort out any differences and resolve them peacefully. Nevertheless, in case this also is ruled out; we may allow the ECI to settle the matter, to take cognition of the issue in the event of any dispute.”
Until such time, the members appealed to both the parties to stop issuing press statements and counter-statements in the interest of the general public.
