**Uche Secondus Screams Out** “APC Has Buried Nigeria’s Democracy”
Prince Uche Secondus, who used to be the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is very worried about the state of Nigeria’s democracy. He says that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has buried the country’s democratic principles. In a statement made on Tuesday by his media adviser, Ike Abonyi, Secondus said that he was afraid that the 2027 elections might not even happen for Nigerians if things keep going the way they are.
It is no secret that Secondus is a strong supporter of democracy. He was very worried about what he saw as the APC-led government’s systematic erosion of democratic values. He said that Nigeria’s democracy is quickly falling apart and that the ruling party is tearing down the foundations that were set by previous governments. He said that the APC has been using different methods to weaken political institutions, silence opposition, and get more power.
Secondus talked about a few things that he thinks show the APC doesn’t care about democratic principles. These include claimed election fraud, voter suppression, and a lack of openness in government. He was upset that the ruling party had not followed the rules of democracy. As a result, the very idea of free and fair elections in Nigeria is in danger.
In his speech, Secondus also talked about his worries about the future of the country’s political resistance. Along with other opposition parties, he said the PDP has been having a harder time working in what he calls a hostile political environment. He said that the APC’s efforts to weaken alternative parties are part of a bigger plan to make Nigeria’s politics run by just one party, which is bad for the country’s future.
The previous head of the PDP stressed how important a strong opposition is for democracy and warned that Nigeria could become authoritarian without one. He asked people around the world to pay attention to what was happening in Nigeria’s politics and stressed the need for outside pressure to make sure that democratic ideals are upheld in the country.
Secondus didn’t hold back when he spoke out against the APC’s leadership. He said that the party’s actions have made Nigeria’s government unstable. Basically, he said that the ruling party put its own goals ahead of the well-being of the Nigerian people, which made the people feel disappointed and lost. He said that the country’s current economic problems, lack of safety, and political unrest are all caused by the APC’s bad leadership.
Finally, Secondus told the people of Nigeria to stay alert and keep fighting for freedom. People should not let the APC try to hurt the political process, he said, and they should hold those in power accountable. He also told the opposition groups to work together to make a strong case against the APC in future elections.
What the former PDP chairman said has caused a lot of people to talk again about Nigeria’s democracy and the role of the ruling party in shaping the country’s political future. As the country gets ready for more elections, Secondus’s worries serve as a reminder of how important it is to keep protecting democratic ideals.
