A group known as Allied Parties for Good Governance has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to use his good office to checkmate the ruling party at the national level against what it termed bullying of members of other political parties into defection to the All Progressives Congress.
The call was made by Chief Ralph Nwosu, on behalf of the group, during a media briefing held in Awka.
The group, which frowned at the rate political tensions are rising across the States, blamed the situation on the ruling party, which it alleged, is bullying and wooing bigwigs in other political parties to join them.
According to Allied Parties for Good Governance, the ruling party has left the promise of good governance and extension of dividends of democracy to all nooks and crannies of the country, which it made to Nigerians, and is now doing the opposite.
The group alleged that the recent defection of some law makers who were members of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, in Anambra State, is a ploy to destabilise the State, and advised the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and other national agencies not to allow themselves to be used against perceived political enemies, but do their job with sincerity of purpose for the good of all Nigerians.
Allied Parties For Good Governance, through Chief Nwosu, who is the national Chairman of African Democratic Congress, flanked by members from over twenty political parties, said it is only the Anambra electorate that have the right to vote in the candidate of their choice, and called on the electorate not to be mindful of the recent turn of events in the polity, but to have their voters card ready to vote in candidates of their choice.
