PDP: TRUELY NOT DEMOCRACT

People Democratic party popularly know as PDP,has became a messiah in the liberal political dispensations because majority of political animals and quarks politician associate with the party.Since from the return of civilian rule in 1999 which gave OBASANJO mandate to be in power and spent 8 solid years in power after enjoying the fruit and air condition of villa, he try to monomers the  constitution by given  billions of naira to the legislators and representatives  just because of his whims and caprices to remain in power for the third time, jut as other African leaders do spend 30-40 years in power,stateman like Poul Biya of Cemenroon,Usain Mubarak of Eygpt,Taja manmade of Niger to name but few, but fortunately for Nigerians nemesis caught him.

In 2007 under leadership of mouris iwhu INEC conducted elections into various offices in the three ties of government, but majority of the seat was worn by PDP in both state and national level. Lot of  petitions and criticism was held by other political parties against the conduct of the general  elections but INEC and the judiciary when ahead and sworn-in YAR’ADUA and JONATHAN as the new elected government. As the car speedometer is moving very fast, late Umaru musa yar’adua kick the bucket, therefore Mr jonathan continue driving the car.

In 2011,Mr president appoint Prof JEGA my father, my role model because he is my former VC and a great icon of my department. The whole nation are very happy for the appointment of Prof JEGA as the new INEC BOSS because of his reputation and integrity with optimistic that issue would change by free and fair election. The irony is that Nigerians are not satisfy with the result which lead to post-election violence in some northern part of the country, claimed thousand lives’ of youth and properties. It is a slap on prof.JEGA integrity.PDP has spend almost 16 years in power and there is a research that informed that PDP would rule for 50 good years before a change in government.

In the past years of PDP dictatorship, there was no any meaningful development but multiple of project and policy without implementations. The beauty of Democracy in Nigeria is fading every day, because of corruption and lack of dividend of Democracy  in so many sector of the economy (health,Education,Agriculture,natural and human resources, to name but few) the story is same, there was noting to be proud off and write about. Here is an report of interview with Dr.kano about PDP and it national convention.

 Ahead of tomorrow’s national congress of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),  President of Nigerian Political Science Association (NPSA), Dr. Sule Kano yesterday said the political system being practiced in the country is not democratic and that the ruling PDP is not a democratic party.

Reflecting on political happenings in the country in exclusive interview with Daily Trust in Sokoto, Dr. Kano said the system being practiced in Nigeria is civil governance and not a democratic system of government.

Sule Kano who is the Head of Political Science Department of Usman Danfodio University, Sokoto, said scientifically Nigeria’s political system cannot be described as democratic.

“The political system we are practicing is not democratic government; it is government of the rich; by the rich and for the rich. This is contrary to the tenets of democracy of which the people are the target. The destiny of the masses is not decided by somebody who calls himself a leader.”
