PDP Chieftain Criticizes Nigeria's Political System, Calls for True Democracy Over Civil Rule
Dan Ulasi, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), criticized Nigeria's political system, stating that the country operates civil rule dominated by political godfatherism and money politics rather than true democracy. Ulasi highlighted the flaws in the political structure, where politicians rely on financial support to gain power, leading to weak institutional values.
He emphasized the need for politicians to rise to power independently to foster genuine democracy. Ulasi pointed out that many politicians in Nigeria treat politics as a business venture, investing heavily to secure positions in office, which hampers the democratic process.
