A former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus, has accused President Bola Tinubu of leading Nigeria in the wrong direction.<\/h2>\n
Secondus added that President Tinubu<\/strong> is steering Nigeria\u2019s economy towards liquidation.<\/p>\n Naija News reports the PDP chieftain made the submission on Wednesday while speaking in Abuja at the\u00a0public presentation of two new books authored by veteran journalist and political communicator, Ike Abonyi<\/strong>, titled The Bubbles of Nigeria\u2019s Democracy: The Musings of a Nigerian Journalist and Wadata Wonders: Memoirs of a Partisan Journalist.<\/p>\n He lamented that\u00a0Nigeria\u2019s current democratic structure is dysfunctional, with political parties lacking ideological coherence and institutional continuity.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cWe are still far from getting to a point where we can say we have democracy. We don\u2019t have democracy in our country. What we have is a platform for winning an election.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cOur country is gradually moving in the wrong direction to a place where you can say Nigeria is on the verge of liquidation, presided over by Bola Tinubu. Everyone in the communities, the political parties, is supposed to be a chain of command from the wards and from the units.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Comparing Nigeria with South Africa, Secondus<\/strong> stressed the need for Nigeria to build strong political institutions, describing South Africa\u2019s African National Congress (ANC), as an unshakable institution.<\/p>\n He contrasted it with the situation in Nigeria where politicians frequently switch party allegiance without consequence, saying such actions erode democratic culture and stability.<\/p>\n \u201cUntil we establish proper democratic political parties where people can stay 30, 40, 50 years, build and reconstruct, the country will not move forward,\u201d<\/em> Secondus said.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
