Decutors ADC VS APC Defenders – Two sides of the same march currency, by Okechukwu Nwangma – Thage

When the presidency of Tinubu describes the defusers of the congress of all progressives (APC) as “desperate politicians who seek power not for the service of the Nigerians but for selfish ambition”, could one ask: how are those who remained behind any different?

What tangible difference does the current collected of the APC leader have in the government made in the lives, well -being and safety of Nigerian normal?

Since he took power, the Tinubu administration has fought to inspire trust. The cost of living has increased, insecurity remains rampant and citizens have become victims of a government that seems increasingly distant from their pain. If those who have left APC are accused of despair, what should we call those who remain – enabling accomplices?

The declaration of the presidency, delivered through Bayo OnanoGa-Ua time journalist and patriot of the pro-democracy movement of irony. ONANUGA, like many others who once risked their freedom and lives to combat military dictatorship in Nigeria, has now become a spokesperson for ethnic bigotry and political intolerance. The transformation is not only discouraging, it is shameful.

The Nigerians no longer have to be distracted by the internal quarrels of politicians who have not put on the ground ideological, no moral compass and no commitment for the national service. The noisy defections and the counter-accusations between the APC and ADC defectors are nothing more than a battle of Ego Contuso and the lost patronage.

Rotimi Amaechi, Abubakar Malami, Hadi Sirika, Rauf Aregbesola, Kashim Imam and John Odigie-Oyegun-Sono Patrioti because they deserted? Certainly not. Many of them have carried out central roles in the rot that defines today’s Nigeria. But neither can still within APC – those who emit declarations and shoot low -cost politicians – to claim any moral superiority.

What separates those who started from those who remained? Nothing more than the comfort of power and the fear of political irrelevance.

The time has come that the Nigerians stopped hoping for redemption within this political class, whether APC, ADC, PDP or their alphabet soup of opportunistic platforms. The tragedy of Nigerian politics is not only the existence of bad leaders, but the lack of alternatives of principle.

The presidency of Tinubu, through the voice of Onanuga, warns us to “keep our eyes open” because the coalition led by the Adc is a gathering of selfish individuals. On this point, it could very well be right – but what cannot admit is that the same accusation applies – word for word – to those who currently occupy rock and state houses across the country.

We, the people, now we have to do what these politicians fear the most: organize, not agreed. We must resume our country from the elite cabal of recycled actors who jump the parties and change alliances only to protect their privileges, not to advance our collective good.

We must build a new political consciousness: a rooted in responsibility, in the power of citizens and in the truth. Not in tribal loyalty or media propaganda. Not in the games shouted among the allies of yesterday transformed today’s enemies.

Until we remove our hopes from the hands of the non-patriotic and selfish-as -ia political political and in the opposition-and we create a credible alternative fueled by civic vigilance and by the commitment to the guidance of young people, Nigeria will remain trapped in this cycle of betrayal and broken promises.

Bayo Onanuga and his former companions in the struggle did not fight the military just to become democratic tyrants. The Nigerians must remind them – and all politicians – that power belongs not to the festive lealists but to the people.
