Adebayo, who was the presidential candidate of the party in the 2023 general election, said the party had always maintained that it is the business of the government to eradicate poverty in Nigeria because it is not a natural situation but man-made.
Speaking in an interview with journalists, he said: “When the party was established in 1989, it had a sister party, the National Republican Convention (NRC), but it was the one that was elitist to the left.
“It is all about the power of government to do well and that we can use the collective power vested in government to improve national security, enhance the welfare of Nigerians, provide social and economic justice for all and ensure that the commanding heights of the economy are not left to a few hands. It is also there to ensure that there is no tension in the land and that there is justice.
