Some prominent activists yesterday said they have commenced moves to democratically ‘banish’ the major political parties in the country especially the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 general elections.
A former presidential candidate, Prof. Pat Utomi, former APC Legal Adviser, Dr Muiz Banire (SAN), legal luminary and activist, Femi Falana, SAN, former presidential aspirant, Prof. Remi Shonanya, among others, yesterday unveiled the registration portal of the “40 Million Ballots Movement”, initiated by Youths on the Street Initiative.

Utomi, a prominent member of the Third Force movement, said despite the liberation of Nigerians from military rule, the civilians have proven to be worse.
