Tinubu Right on Opposition’s Cluelessness, Lack of Vision – Group
The Democratic Front (TDF) has expressed its alignment with President Bola Tinubu’s judgment on Nigeria’s opposition ahead of the 2027 election.
In a statement signed by its Chairman, Mallam Danjuma Muhammad, and Secretary, Chief Wale Adedayo, the group argued that the opposition is afflicted with a lack of vision.
The statement read in part: “More infuriating is the galling display of ignorance by the leadership of the opposition in the manner it often criticises the policies and programmes of the President Tinubu administration, without proffering workable alternatives to the policies it opposes.
“Like a broken record, the opposition in Nigeria has acquired a permanent proclivity for exaggerating political and economic situations in the country, by using fabricated or non-existent data to support flawed narratives.
“Aside from comparing the pre-subsidy economic indicators with post-subsidy reforms of the Tinubu administration, the opposition parties are bereft of clues that would enthrone an investment ecosystem capable of unlocking unlimited economic prosperity for Nigeria.
“It is equally disheartening and condemnable for the opposition to have relished in the joy of concocting spurious and unfounded accusations against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the APC, over an imaginary sinister plot to foist a one-party-state on the country, by destabilising the internal structures of opposition parties.
“We find the accusation of conspiracy to narrow the democratic space levelled against President Tinubu as laughable and unbelievable. Because the tendency and desire to shrink the Nigerian democratic space, for the selfish and dangerous pursuit of power, is reflected in the historical antecedents of some of the leaders of the opposition parties.
“We recall that Senator David Mark, it was, who masterminded and championed the alterations of Nigeria’s Constitution to allow for the deregistration of political parties, in his capacity as the then President of the Nigerian Senate. It was a deliberate and selfish plot to clip the wings and vibrancy of opposition parties against his own ruling PDP.
“The rise and fall of Atiku-Obi’s opposition coalition has finally pulled the moral trigger in the conscience of the Nigerian public to believe that the ADC and NDC Presidential Candidates are both trapped in Leon Festinger’s cognitive dissonance, by simply living a lie of the democracy they professed.”
It urged Nigerians to shun the antics of the opposition and vote massively against them and their political parties in the forthcoming 2027 general elections.
