The members of the forum comprise technocrats, intellectuals, experts and professionals across all fields, work, disciplines and areas of endeavours that are card-carrying members.

He reminded President Muhammadu Buhari that there are consequences for failure to reward those that suffered for the party. The group also pleaded for the intervention of President Buhari in the executive and legislative feud.
