Obasanjo's Movement Merges With Little-Known Nigerian Party

The Coalition for Nigeria Movement (CNM) established by former president Olusegun Obasanjo early this year, has merged with a relatively obscure political party, the African Democratic Congress (ADC). Obasanjo had in January rolled out CNM, saying he would cease to be a member if it changed its status from a pressure group to a political party.
