Commenting on the unification of regional parties in the state, working president Thomas Passah told reporters at Dinam hall on June 3 after the general council meeting, “If they want us to work together, they must move out of the MDA first and then we will talk whether we will work or not based on the agenda.”
He said that the “whole body” of the regional parties are in the MDA as well as the North East Democratic Alliance (NEDA).
