A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Bode George, has stated that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is a "one-man show" which lacks a real political structure.
He made these remarks on Wednesday during an appearance on Channels Television's Morning Brief, while discussing the potential for a third political force, such as the Social Democratic Party (SDP), to emerge in the run-up to the 2027 general elections.
"The APC has no structure; it's just a one-man show," George declared, underscoring his belief that the ruling party's political foundation is weak.
Bode George emphasized that for any political alternative to succeed, the focus must be on the people rather than personal ambition. He further argued that individualism, particularly when it serves personal interests, cannot lead to effective governance.
"What should come first is the people. Then, our attitude to manage the resources of this country for the benefit of the people. Individualism can never solve this. Personal ambition is a very dangerous, stupid approach to problem-solving," George said.
He continued, "You must give in to something and must allow the freshness in the minds of the people of this country. Governance is about them; power should be from them."
