Mixed reactions are trailing the modalities announced by the Federal Government for the convocation of the proposed national conference, with some stakeholders faulting the delegate composition, timing and duration of the conference while others expressed cautious optimism about its prospect.

The federal government had on Thursday approved 492 delegates, representing all shades of opinion and interest groups nationwide, to participate in the proposed national conference. Of the 492 delegates, President Goodluck Jonathan will nominate 46 while the 36 state governors will nominate 108 delegates. The modalities also provided that the five major parties with representation in the National Assembly - Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), All Progressives Congress (APC), All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Labour Party (LP) and Accord Party (AP) - would send 10 delegates, comprising two nominees each.
