Tinubu denied the blocking of political party registration, denied the accusation of one party

Football President Ahmed Tinubu has rejected the accusation that his government worked to prevent registration of new political parties in Nigeria or created a state of one party.

“I have never stopped registration of any political party,” Tinubu said firmly during his remarks. “There has been no direction from my administration to Inec to stop such a process.”

The President’s comments came in the midst of increasing criticism from opposition groups that accused all progressive in power (APC) of consolidating power and damaged Nigerian multi-party democracy.

Reacting to the claim, Tinubu rejected the idea of ​​engineering a one -party system but emphasized that APC should not be blamed for its broad appeal.

“APC will be guilty of political malpractice if you close the door for those who are now trying to join the party,” he said. “We welcome all who share in our progressive ideals.”
