Conference of Nigeria Political Parties, CNPP, has said that all is ready for a mass action against President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.

CNPP said it has mobilized a coalition of civil society groups to join labor movements such as Trade Union Congress, TUC, and Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, to join the protest against the recent hike in petrol pump price and electricity tariff.

CNPP, being the umbrella body of all registered political parties and political associations in Nigeria, said this in a statement signed by its Secretary-General, Chief Willy Ezugwu and made available to newsmen.

It said it was high time it told federal government that people have ran out of patience after five years of experiment with current administration.

CNPP maintained that federal government is now taking citizens for a ride.
