Addressing the National Executive meeting of NUPEC in Abuja, Nneji also revealed his readiness to mobilize his men when legalized as Nigerian Peace Corps to generate revenue for the federal government through some identified avenues of which he has available blueprints, when the bill is passed into law.
Nneji, therefore launched a peace facilitating campaign tagged: “Operation talk the Peace project” to sensitize Nigerians to shun violence, hate speeches and embrace peace especially as the electioneering period approaches.
While asking Nigerians especially members of his organization to have high hope in the government of the day and pray along with them for a successful delivery of lasting dividends of democracy that will touch down on all and sundry, the CG remarked that his organization will not give up on the good will of Mr. President to rescind his decision and position regarding the Peace Corps bill.
