Chekwas Cries Out-It Is Conspiracy,No It Is Not-Oye

“You cannot practice the democratic system of government as is being done in the U.S. model we copied with multifarious political parties. Our political system is not sophisticated enough to grapple with the challenges of pluralistic, multi-ethnic, and multicultural orientation of our political parties. This manifested clearly in the 2019 general election. We also lack the technology and conviction and commitment required to manage many political parties, especially where there is no government funding. Unfortunately, many of the delisted political parties didn’t have what it took to exist as political entities.  Comparing Nigeria to India is not proper.” – stated the National Chairman of the All Progressive Grand Alliance [APGA], Chief Victor Oye while commenting on the recent de-registration of political parties by the electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission [INEC].

The statement comes as some of the leaders of the de-registered parties have begun to cry blue murder against what they termed illegal actions of the national electoral umpire. This is as one of the de-registered parties took to the courts to seek redress – and in so doing convinced the courts to issue a stay of action on the INEC’s intended de-registration.

Another affected party, the UPP appears aggrieved and ready to take actions against the INEC. In talking with the National chairman, Chief Chekwas Okorie it was evident the INEC made have struck a lethal blow to the UPP.
