As A Result Of The Upcoming General Elections 2023 We’ve Been Seeing A Lot Of Politicians Defecting/Decamping From Different Political Parties To Another However The Way And Manner Politics Is Being Played Nowadays Is Not Only Devastatingly Surprising But Shocking To Hear Speaking With An Elderly Friend.
He Said Sadly Politics Now Lack The Ideology That Propelled Many Among Farmers, Students, Market Women And Associations To Be Card Carrying Members Of Political Parties Of Old.
Regrettably, Today’s Politicians And Political Parties Are A Collection Of So Many Selfish Individuals Whose Only Agenda Is To Exploit And Impoverished The Masses.
However In Another Chat With A Political Scientist, Public Administrator, With Master’s In Politics & Law And The Chairman SOUTHFLICK GROUP In The Person of Otunba Mogho Tenumah In Akure, Ondo State. He Said No doubt, Politicians Are Supposed To Be Distinguished And Honourable Persons Who Ought To Keep Faith With The People That Elected Them Into Offices And Having Been Elected Into Their Esteemed Positions, They Do Not Need Decamping To Justify The Confidence The People Reposed On Them To Perform Creditably.
However, It Is Unfortunate That, The Laxity In The System Is Partly Responsible For The Selfish Interest That Determines The Need For Defection.
To Save Our Democracy, This Phenomenon Must Stop, As Nigeria Cannot Afford To Be Playing Banana Politics.
In A Larger Sense, We Cannot Continue To Treat Defectors As Hallow, Unfortunately Nigerians May Not Remember What The Defectors Said, But They Can Never Forget The Picture Democracy Is Being Painted By The Actions Of This Politicians.
Take For Instance I Got Elected Into A Political Position Under A Minority/Opposition Party, My Political Autonomy Are Automatically Limited So I Feel The Defection By Most Politicians To The Ruling Party Is To Enable Them Gain Access To The Central Government Controlled By The Ruling Party Without Restrictions.
But, Then It All Goes Down To Self Interest Above That Of The Electorate Because You Can Still Be In Your Party And At The Same Time Have Access To The Central Government Limitlessly If Only You Know Your Human And Political Rights As A Public Servant.
In between I Have Decided To Contest In The Next Election To Save My People From Political Injustice, Political Bouhaha and Political Misdemeanor Caused As A Result Of The Selfish Interest Of Carreer Politicians. Like You All Know Truth in Nigerian Politics Means You Will Be Persecuted And When You Are Consistently In The Search Of Truth And Fair Play, Those Things Have No Value In Nigerian Politics, He Said.
He Promised That His Coming Into Politics Was Majorly To Serve The People And Change The Narrative Of The Average Nigerian As Far As Deliverables Are Concerned.
He Said I Have Decided To Join Politics So As To Play A Active Role In Saving The Nation, My Grassroot Ward and Federal Constituency From Unpleasant Grip Of The Ruling Party.
My party has gone out to sensitize our people in the grassroots on the need for us to come out and participate in the election come 2023.
Mogho Tenumah said, declaring that they would not condone acts of Election rigging.
He added, “If the ruling party tries anything funny, we will match them with whatever they came with before, during and after the election.
The Real-Estate Magnate Turned Politician Has Advises Youths To Buckle Up, To Be Patient And To Do The Hard Work.
He Said: There is no easy way to wealth That Is Why I Work Tirelessly. It’s Either I Win Or Learn.
He Added As At The 11th day of March 2019, The Electorate Population In Nigeria Was Estimated To Be About 84,004,084, Which Represents 49.78 Per Cent of the 200,962,417 Estimated Population Of Nigerians. The Majority Of The Electorate, However, Fail To Exercise Their Franchise, Thereby Availing The Politicians The Opportunity To Manipulate The Process And By Simply Voting On The Basis Of Parochialism.
He Also Urged Nigerians to Go Get Their Permanent Voters Card (PVC) Saying The Future Is Now.
