The G100 opposition political parties have announced a rescheduling of their proposed Summit, now set for Monday, August 31, 2026, following consultations with the participating parties and the Minority Caucus of the House of Representatives. The decision was made in consideration of the National Peace Summit taking place on August 18, which is expected to gather the leadership and key stakeholders from the opposition parties.
A statement from the G100 signifying the change in date highlights the broad consensus reached during the discussions. It was agreed that holding the G100 Summit after the National Peace Summit would provide ample time for internal consultations and preparation. The G100 engaged in frank and substantive conversations with the leadership of the six opposition parties and members of the Minority Caucus.

The parties expressed appreciation for the candor and willingness to listen demonstrated during the consultations, which they believe will make the August 31 Summit both substantive and consequential.
