Chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP, Buba Galadima, says if Nigerians could remove former President Goodluck Jonathan from office in 2015 over insecurity, the All Progressives Congress (APC) deserves a much worse treatment.
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday, Galadima warned that Nigerians could react strongly at the ballot box if current economic and security challenges continue.
He lambasted the policies of the ruling APC and dismissed claims that living conditions have improved.
Speaking on political dissent and governance, the elder statesman stated that authorities should not underestimate public sentiment, citing incidents of arrests over public commentary.
He lamented the arrest and imprisonment of young people who go on the radio to air their own opinion about the happenings in Nigeria.
The NNPP stalwart told the APC-led Federal Government that they should not presume that Nigerians were gullible and that they cannot react.
“Now things start small, small. You don’t know how they can blossom and become something else. They shouldn’t play.
“If you can remove Jonathan’s government for a simple insecurity in the Northeast, what would you be doing to the APC government? I think we have to cut them into pieces,” he said.
