They stormed & forcibly took our HQ, not knowing we are headquartered in the hearts of citizens
They diverted the PPFA money earned by the voter
They grabbed our name but we left them clutching at an empty shell

Without any direction nor instruction from political leaders, citizens in the diaspora organised to raise funds to support the struggle. We understand they've picked up from the successes of last year to ensure we campaign everywhere for the 2023 elections.

Action for Change must go beyond political party affiliation.
The core Action for this year is mobilizing to register to vote. Voting makes a difference. Those demotivating voting want to take away the citizens' voice. Organize, mobilise & educate for change

We need law makers, we will have a 2/3 majority in Parliament. We'll clean sweep in local government. This is a Citizens' movement. The external support won't be useful if we fail to mobilise to register to vote. A high margin of votes can't be rigged.
