#TakeBackNigeria, a
socio-political group amplifying Omoyele Sowore’s candidacy for the 2019
presidential election, has described the ruling All Progressives Party (APC)
and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as evil twins of corruption.
Sowore, publisher of Sahara
Reporters, in an interview with TheCable had said his efforts, since 1999, have
been focused on ensuring that Nigeria’s democracy thrives and that those who
aspire to lead the country are accountable to the people.
In a statement on Saturday,
#TakeBackNigeria described APC and PDP as two wrecking machines trying to take
Nigerians for another horrendous four-year ride in 2019.
The movement said the only
difference
“We want both the APC and PDP to
know that Take Back Nigeria movement has declared that it is our sacred duty to
remind Nigerians of the atrocities that have been perpetrated on the Nigerian
people by both parties,” the statement read.
“We are vigilant. We are
watching. We will call out falsehoods. We will expose the corruption of both
the PDP and the APC. Never again will we allow our nation’s destiny to be
turned into a commodity to be passed around by the same men and women, who have
ruined this nation for almost three decades, and whose only difference is the
most recent name by which they choose to call themselves.
“Our movement believes that
Nigeria deserves better than these evil twins of corruption and mismanagement
called APC and PDP.”
The group added that despite all
the lip service being paid to anti-corruption by the Buhari government, not a
single major conviction of corrupt politicians has been concluded by the
administration.
“We want to make it clear to both
parties that Nigerians are saying to them enough is enough,” it said.
“For every looter called Uche
Secondus in the PDP, there is a Bukola Saraki from the APC. For every seizure
of our sisters from Chibok under the PDP, there is an equally disastrous
assault on our daughters in Dapchi, under the APC.
“Take Back Nigeria movement is
appalled that the APC and the PDP have so terribly debased the seriousness of
governance that they have now resorted to publishing public lists showing which
party is more corrupt than the other.”
