A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, has urged Nigerians to prioritise national issues over personalities in their assessments of the opposition politicians in the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
Ologbondiyan, who is considering a move to the ADC, said this while speaking during an interview on Channels Television on Friday. The PDP chieftain said that the conversations and policy positions of the ADC should form the basis of political discourse, not attacks on individuals associated with the party. “I think the issues, the conversations which have been raised by the ADC should be of interest to those who are in government and not attacks on personalities,” he said.
“If we don’t want to fail this democracy, if we do not want to continue to fail Nigerians, then we should look at issues in the conversation and not personalities,” he added. Although he stopped short of formally declaring his defection to the ADC, his comments suggest a growing alignment with the coalition-backed party, which has recently been championing reforms and alternative governance approaches.
