DON’T MAKE 2015 MISTAKE – GALADIMA, RULES OUT NNPP, PDP, LP MERGER

DON’T REPEAT 2015 MISTAKE – GALADIMA, RULES OUT NNPP, PDP, LP MERGER

A prominent stakeholder in the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Buba Galadima, has dismissed speculations of a possible merger between opposition parties, insisting that only individuals, not political parties, can come together to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Speaking on the current political realignments, Galadima ruled out any coalition between the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party (LP), and NNPP ahead of the 2027 general elections.

According to him, both the PDP and LP have been compromised and are no longer viable opposition forces.

“You should know that PDP is not merging with anybody because PDP is a branch of APC. Nobody needs to tell you that. The Labour Party has been taken over. So, only individuals can merge, I mean, can come together and go under one umbrella,” Galadima stated.

His remarks came on the heels of the defection of former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, from APC to the Social Democratic Party (SDP), a move widely seen as part of efforts to build a strong opposition coalition ahead of 2027.

However, Galadima cautioned against a repeat of the 2015 political alignment that led to the emergence of Muhammadu Buhari and later, Bola Tinubu, as presidents.

“But you should also know that it is not good for us to commit the mistakes of 2014 or 2013, just to remove Tinubu for removal’s sake, because you may remove Tinubu as you removed Buhari, and end up using torchlight during daylight looking for Tinubu,” he warned.

    SENATOR NATASHA AKPOTI REPORTS HER SUSPENSION TO UN INTER-PARLIAMENTARY UNION

    SENATOR NATASHA AKPOTI REPORTS HER SUSPENSION TO UN INTER-PARLIAMENTARY UNION It appears the controversy over the allegations by Senator Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan against Senate President Godswill and her suspension from the Red Chamber may not be getting off the news anytime soon. This is because the suspended Kogi Senator on Tuesday took her case to a global stage. At the Women in Parliament Session held at the Inter-Parliamentary Union Meeting (IPU) at the United Nations in New York, Senator Natasha is seeking justice and the intervention of global democratic institutions. The lawmaker is asking for justice over what she describes as injustice meted on her by according to her, “unlawful suspension” from the senate After her speech, she expressed worry about her security. The Kogi Central lawmaker claimed there were indications that she may be held against her will in New York for speaking up on the issue at the global event by “the powers that be” from Nigeria. The Senate suspended the Kogi lawmaker last week, accusing her of violating its rules days after she submitted a petition against Senate President Akpabio.

    FG BEHIND CRISES IN PDP, LP, NNPP – EL-RUFAI

    FG BEHIND CRISES IN PDP, LP, NNPP – EL-RUFAI The Presidency and Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, on Tuesday clashed again over allegation that the Federal Government is behind the internal crises and litany of litigations rocking the opposition parties in the country. El-Rufai made the claim when he visited the headquarters of the Social Democratic Party in Abuja. A video of his meeting with the party leadership has since gone viral on social media platforms. The embattled former governor also vented his frustration at the confusion and inactivity of the opposition camp. He said, “The crisis they are facing in the Labour Party is contrived and funded by the government of the day. Everyone knows it. “Jumping from one court to the other is all designed to distract the party leadership from focusing on their core functions. “The same thing is happening in the PDP, even the NNPP has been targeted for destruction. There are people who have been resourced to go and cause problems in the NNPP. “The last thing I read about the NNPP was that one faction of the party has expelled Kwankwaso and the sitting governor. “When you see things like that, you will know it is a contrived crisis. Which party sacks a sitting governor? And that is the only governor they have. I cannot mention names because I don’t have the details.” El-Rufai, earlier on Monday, announced his defection from the ruling All Progressives Congress to the opposition SDP, vowing to mobilise against the APC government in 2027. He highlighted his previous efforts to address internal issues privately and publicly, which he felt were ignored, leading to his decision to seek an alternative platform that aligns with his values. The erstwhile APC chieftain also confirmed that he had submitted his resignation letter to the ruling party, saying that he consulted with his mentors, colleagues and supporters before joining the SDP in preparation for the 2027 general election. Presidency slams El-Rufai Reacting to his fresh allegation on Tuesday, the Presidency knocked El-Rufai, saying it was right to believe he jumped ship because of his inordinate ambition. In an exclusive phone interview, the Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communications, Daniel Bwala, expressed concerns that the new SDP convert was doing a bad job if his latest ‘gaslighting’ was to unsettle the ruling APC government. He said, “First, I am not aware and don’t know anything about that. Is he also saying that the Federal Government is also sponsoring a crisis in the SDP that he went to? His journey to the SDP, in summary, is dead on arrival. “In the coming days or weeks, for you members of the press, they will give you enough material to be reported. “Once the party is over, they will now sit and start fighting each other. They will start fighting over who becomes the candidates or representatives and start disagreeing with one another. “So they are enjoying the first two weeks when the media will give them attention. Inordinate ambition is when people think it is only through them that change can come. Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, by God’s grace, will serve two terms and after he finishes, he will give it to a new generation of younger people. We have already moved past this political recycling.” LP denies allegation When quizzed, the leadership of the LP denied knowledge of El-Rufai’s allegation. In an interview, the National Publicity Secretary of LP, Obiora Ifoh, wondered why the former minister was just raising the alarm. He said, “If the APC has a hand in an internal crisis in a political party, we in the Labour Party are not aware of it. “We also think El-Rufai is speaking from both sides of the…
