Sam Amadi Critiques APC's Bid for 16-Year Rule

Sam Amadi, the former Chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), criticized the All Progressives Congress (APC) for its ambition to govern Nigeria for a total of 16 consecutive years. This period would include eight years under former President Muhammadu Buhari and a potential additional eight years under current President Bola Tinubu.

Amadi expressed his concerns in a post on 𝕏, suggesting that if the APC successfully retains power for this duration, it would indicate significant weaknesses in Nigeria's electoral system. He questioned the political judgment of voters and highlighted the potential for deeper issues within the electoral process.

Amadi remarked, “The party that gave us Buhari for eight years wants to give us Tinubu for eight years,” implying that such a scenario would reflect either poor political judgment by the electorate or serious flaws in the electoral framework.
