The group insisted that those behind the the crime should be fished out by the anti graft and be made to face the law. The group further stated that the sooner political parties in Nigeria were made to start giving accounts of the sources of their funds and how the moneys were spent the better as it will maintain bring in sanity in the political parties which have been turned into cash cows and conduit pipes by politicians used to be stealing public funds.
