A former Senior Special Adviser
to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, has
described the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) as unfit to liberate Nigeria and take her to a greater height.
He said the country needed a more
vibrant and sensitive political party with requisite strength and coverage to
get wide acceptance and endorsement.
Okupe added that Accord Party,
which is his new voyage remained an incubator for young ones for proper
orientation to participate actively in governance.
He disclosed this while
addressing a crowd of Accord members during a South West Stakeholders Summit in
Osogbo, the Osun State capital.
He said, “This is a platform for
the young generation to actively involve in the business of governance, and
change the paradigm of government generally.
“None of APC or PDP could ensure
better future for Nigerians, both are parties of retrogressive ideology and
primitive idea.
“It is quite understandable
everybody that is presentable or likely to be presented by either the APC or
PDP, they are all expired. The parties themselves are of no very serious
consequence and they have been dislocated and dislodged from the general
constitution of the people and the followership.
“Everybody in Nigeria today is
dissatisfied with the APC and they also dissatisfied with the PDP and they are
yearning and looking seriously for a true change this time and they are looking
for a new platform, which Accord is offering Nigeria.”
“We started this South West
summit of Accord and it is a tradition we have newly introduced. We started in
Oyo, where Dr Ajaja, who is here was made Oyo State leader. Here we are in
Osogbo, from here, we go to Lagos and from Lagos to Ogun until we go round the
entire South West,” he added.
Just few weeks back, Okupe
described the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) as “dead parties that belong to the graveyard.”
