The People’s Redemption Party (PRP) on Saturday held its National Convention and Primaries in Kano State, with a strong warning for its members to be wary of President Tinubu’s alleged attempts to perpetuate himself in power by all means.
“We call on our People to be vigilant because the mercenary politics that the Nation Generals used to undermine the June 12 Election in the botched Third Republic have been perfected by the Tinubu Regime”.
Speaking, the National Chairman, who was along with all his Cabinet members, was returned unopposed. Abdulmajid Yakubu Daudu, in PRP, has made it clear that, unlike the Marketers who invited the deplorable members of the ruling class to join the Party as a springboard to power, politics is service and not private enterprises.
He said, because of President Tinubu‘s alleged hold tied to power syndrome, today nearly all non-regime political parties are battling with mercenaries as willing tools of government to subvert and weaken the collective political opposition in order to impose a dominant Party autocracy on the Country.
“Therefore, under President Tinubu, Nigeria has receded from consolidating democracy gains to enthroning autocracy under a dominant party’s rule, the APC, here the ruling party, is above the law.
Abdulmajid Yakubu hints that the separation of powers is allegedly non-existent while the legislature functions as an appendage of the executive, and the Judiciary is increasingly seen as pliant to the regime.
“The State resources are today highly personalised, highly placed public office bearers have become overnight billionaires, no one is afraid of the Anti-Corruption watchdogs, who have become toothless, they are impotent.”
The Chairman said they are not under any illusion that President Tinubu is willing to stay in power by all crooked means, the INEC is nowhere near ready to be an independent umpire under its own. Present Mercurial Leadership
Therefore, what we intend to do is to ensure that our elected Representatives in this Conversation/Primaries will be our foot soldiers in the continued struggle for Freedom, social justice and development in Nigeria.
