The former National Vice Chairman, North-West, of the ruling
All Progressives Congress, APC, Salihu Mohammed Lukman, has urged opposition
parties and other critical stakeholders across the country to mobilise
Nigerians towards dislodging the APC in 2027.
Lukman, a former Director-General of the Progressive Governors’
Forum, PGF, in a statement on Saturday, said pushing the APC out of power
remains the only way to address the avalanche of challenges bedevilling the
country.
He said defeating the APC in 2027 is possible if opposition
parties and Nigerians unite, just like top politicians united and succeeded in
pushing the military back to the barracks.
“Nigerians are groaning over the spate of killings,
kidnappings for ransom, food crisis, hike in electricity tariff, and high cost
of transportation, goods and services in the country occasioned by the removal
of fuel subsidy by the APC-led government”, he added
“Patriotic Nigerians and democrats must resume the business
of national mobilisation to produce an alternative democratic platform to APC
and all the charades of registered political parties. We must summon the
courage and believe in the power of possibility”
“Just like we succeeded in pushing the military back to the barracks
and defeating the PDP in 2015, it is possible to create a politically viable
and truly popular democratically alternative platform that can put the APC in
its rightful place and overcome the current extreme right-wing adventurously
unplanned leadership of President Asiwaju Tinubu”
“Nigerians must be mobilised to rise above dishonest
politicians who only manipulate their way to power and reduce citizens to the
status of conquered people. Democracy will be worthless if the result is only
to elect civilian overlords”
The former Director General of the Progressives Governors
Forum said the APC has abandoned its vision and reduced it to a mere platform
for winning elections.
