Democratic Party of Nauru - Goals and Influence

Goals and Influence

The most important goal of the DPN was to prevent an expansion of power of DeRoburt and to force the role of the Parliament. In 1989 DeRoburt had been ousted in a vote of no confidence by Kenos Aroi who had been supported by Adeang and his entourage, but only for four months. Bernard Dowiyogo is the last DPN member to have been President of Nauru (2003). Afterwards the DPN increasingly has lost influence; considering it hasn't attained a seat in the Parliament since Dowiyogo's death in 2003.
