Nigeria Deserves A Government That Guarantees Their Safety – David Mark

The newly unveiled National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, David Mark, has come out to say that he knows unseating Tinubu in 2027 would be a tough task.

He, however, revealed that the coalition is ready to make sacrifices for Nigeria’s survival and progress.

According to him, the African Democratic Congress is fully focused on preventing Nigeria from becoming a one-party state, and it will definitely be a long and tiring political journey.

He added that Nigerians deserve a government that guarantees their safety and makes them feel secure in their own homes.

His words, “This coalition goes beyond seeking power; it is about rebuilding Nigeria.

We are under no illusion that it will be an easy task. However, we are ready to embark on this journey as a sacrifice for our fatherland.

This coalition aims to prevent our country from descending into a one-party state.

Today marks the beginning of what we believe will be a long, difficult and tedious journey.

However, it is a journey that we are prepared to undertake, united in our collective belief that no price or sacrifice is too high in the service of our fatherland.

The blatant destabilisation and infiltration of all major opposition political parties is aimed at achieving only one objective: to enhance total state capture and leave Nigerians with no alternative or options in 2027.

We have never seen a government so much at home with corruption, a government that disdains accountability in all ramifications. A government more concerned with the next election rather than the survival of the ordinary Nigerians.

A government so totally consumed with politicking that governance is abandoned, while the majority of our people wallow in hunger and poverty.

We have never seen this level of insecurity across the length and breadth of our nation. Bandits and kidnappers kill Nigerians at will and on a daily basis. Yet, this ongoing tragedy has not moved the government to any action that would stop these mindless killings and stem the tide of needless bloodshed.

Equally disturbing is the total emasculation of the legislative institution. Never in our history have we witnessed a National Assembly where legislators, the trustees of the very bastion of our democracy, saddled with the sacred duty to protect Nigerians from misuse of executive power, are reduced to cheerleaders and praise singers of the President, head of the executive arm.

Without doubt, the transformation of Nigeria’s National Assembly to a mere appendage of presidential authority is a dangerous conspiracy against the Nigerian people.

It is the reason why the government is able to get away with various whimsical, unconstitutional policies and actions or inactions that have reduced more Nigerians to abject poverty and widened the boundaries of insecurity and fear.”

WOW.
