Tinubu govt pushing Nigeria towards one-party state, undermining democracy – PDP chieftain, Ologbondiyan

Former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, has accused President Bola Tinubu’s administration of implementing anti-democratic strategies.

Ologbondiyan said these strategies are aimed at undermining democracy and pushing Nigeria toward a one-party state.

The PDP chieftain based his claims on certain recent events around the country.

In a statement he signed, Ologbondiyan said: “In the last couple of days, indicators that @officialABAT’s government is coming up with anti-democratic methods have emerged in language and strategy.

“First was the war-like directive from the NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, that Canada should proceed ‘to hell’ just because of a visa-related issue that could have been resolved at a diplomatic roundtable.

“@YusufTuggar, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, whose duty is to engage in diplomacy, has been busy with domestic affairs in Bauchi on an eye-service fight against Governor Bala Mohammed (@SenBalaMohammed), thereby abandoning his role to Ribadu.

“On Sunday, @AAdeleke_01, the Osun State governor, raised the alarm by alerting the world to a possible attack on his state, which he alleged was being coordinated by none other than ‘the cousin’ of @officialABAT, former Governor and now Marine Business Minister, @GboyegaOyetola.

“When the attack rocked Osun State yesterday, it left in its wake a number of bagged bodies.

“Already, the National Secretary of @officialAPC, Senator Ajibola Bashiru, has openly called for a state of emergency in Osun State. Needless to say, this reckless demand is responsible for the attack on the state.

“In the Lagos State House of Assembly, a subterfuge that has been brewing became manifest yesterday.

“There was a choreographed attempt to force out Madam Speaker and forcefully return the removed Mr. Speaker to office. Unless nipped in the bud, this comedy of errors might come to a horrendous end.

“Reports in the public space revealed that security agents from @OfficialDSSNG and @PoliceNG worked against the wishes of the LSHA.

“DSS, however, stoutly defended its role by saying it was invited to avert a crisis by the LSHA bureaucrats. Interesting!

“These catalog of actions point only in one direction – to undermine our democracy and push our nation into a one-party state.”
