Balarabe Musa: APC Will Turn Nigeria Into A One-Party State by ebiscoshadrack1: 11:45am On Apr 09, 2015
Second Republic governor of Kaduna State, Alhaji Balarabe Musa, has predicted that the current mass defection of politicians from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress will turn Nigeria into a one-party state.

Musa, in an interview with our correspondent on Wednesday, said in the coming days, especially after the governorship and state House of Assembly elections, the APC would grow stronger and take the status of the PDP while the outgoing ruling party would fade away gradually.

He said, “What is happening is democratic and it is inevitable, if you take into account the way the APC emerged. Almost right from the beginning the APC was 70 per cent of PDP defectors. This practice started even before the APC.

“It was the situation with the APP after the PDP won in 1999. It is the bandwagon effect and it is happening because the APC has won the Presidency. What it really means is that we are now going to have a one-party state. The PDP will fade away gradually leaving the APC in the situation the PDP has been in the past 16 years.”

Musa added that it had been the design of the ruling class to make Nigeria a one-party state so that they could easily decide who would rule the country.

He said prior to 1999, the ruling class was going to make the PDP the only viable party in the country, but when the one-party plan failed they adopted a two-party plan, with the All Peoples Party, being second and lower party.

This is not good for our democracy. We need a strong opposition to the APC that will put everyone on their toe.

Seeing that it is d same set of people that rocked d sinking boat of PDP that ve run to APC's boat to seek refuge, the same things dat caused d downfall of PDP will sooner or later make APC fall too. One thing I know for sure tho is dat PDP will strategize to make d party stronger again but if APC should fall @ anytime, that fall will be too brutal dat it will shatter and not be mendable. So dos forces @ d top of APC shud be careful how they tread.

Some of their supporters in various cities have been burying the PDP symbolically so that there won't be an opposition to check their excesses.

I think this trend can be stopped if Buhari-led govt starve those political prostitute of relevance when they get to APC, example is Tom ikimi, they should all decamp to APC and be relevance only in their ward. I trust Buhari, as a military man, he's knowledgeable enough to tame saboteurs and thieves

I can't agree more. Competition aids democracy by putting office holders on their toes. However, Nigeria is undergoing a revolution on corruption, and we need it to be absolute. Therefore APC remains the only option until the birth of another sane opposition.

The onus is now on the other smaller parties in Nigeria to follow the path of APC. Grow or form alliances and coalition. Parties with very good presence all over Nigeria , national parties not regional or ethnic parties.
APC has shown that this can be done so other smaller parties can do it. We need more stronger oppositions in the political sphere in Nigeria not just the PDP. Then, voters would have more choices not just two choices. Then we can vote for the best polices and not limited to two choices.

Only then can we say we have grown democratically.
