Unauthorized CEC meeting & General Convention
Kohima: 19th August, 2017
It has come to the notice of the Naga People’s Front, Central Headquarters, that an unauthorized person by the name of Thangsat Kuki, formerly Office Secretary of the NPF and presently with the Rio group, has been circulating on the social media an illegal circular calling for a meeting of the Central Executive Council (CEC) on August 22, 2017.
Whereas, Article IV (3) (c) (iii) of the Constitution of the NPF party clearly states that “Any member of the Party may requisition a meeting of the CEC by presenting to the President a memorandum signed by 1/3rd or more of the CEC and such a meeting be convened within 15 days from the date of receipt.”
And whereas, the person circulating the said circular is no longer a member of the NPF Party;
Whereas, the President of the NPF Dr Shurhozelie Liezietsu is neither in receipt of any requisition letter signed or attested by the required 1/3rd members of the CEC, nor has he authorized such a meeting;
The said circular calling for a meeting of the CEC on August 22, 2017 be treated as an illegal, mischievous and malafide circular with the sole intent of creating confusion in the minds of the CEC members.
Also whereas Article V (3) vests with the President “the power or to delegate power to any Office Bearer to convene/ preside over, adjourn and prorogue all meetings of the Central Office, viz, the General Convention, the Central Executive Council, the Working Committee and any other Committee of the Central Office…”
And whereas, suspended NPF member Neiphiu Rio has not been delegated the power by the Party President Dr Shurhozelie Liezietsu to convene a General Convention of the NPF Party;
Now, party rank and file as well as the public and well wishers are reminded that the so-called General Convention called by Neiphiu Rio, who is no longer a member of the NPF Party, on September 20, 2017, is illegal, unauthorized, unconstitutional and ultra vires, and should be considered as a futile exercise by desperate group of suspended and expelled NPF members.
