BNF-BPP unity talks flop

This development came after the BPP held an extraordinary conference last Saturday here, resolving that the party should not enter into talks with any political party until after the next general elections expected in 2009.

The besieged party also resolved that all party members, collectively and individually, should work for party unity: "The National Executive Council (NEC) should enforce the clause in the constitution which gives it the power to co-opt any member of the party to fill any vacant post in the central committee (CC) and the NEC. The CC should revive all party structures in the country in preparation for the coming general elections," the conference resolved.
