Despite claims of irregularities, Gov Mala Buni said the congresses were “very successful” but in the same vein threatened to sanction deviant members in some concerned states.
The state congresses will prepare the ground for the party’s zonal congresses and then it’s much anticipated national convention where a new crop of national leaders will be elected.
The original plan was for the interim leaders to steer the affairs of the party for six months to set the pace for a national convention.
