During the period when Özgür Özel and his team were counting down for the establishment of a new party, a social media account named "Yeni Parti" was opened, and it was claimed that the founding process had officially begun. A swift response came from Özgür Özel's camp to this post, which alleged that official applications would soon be completed. In a statement from the Özgür Özel Communications account, it was stated that the page and announcement in question had no connection with Özgür Özel, and the public was asked not to give credence to misleading posts.
