National chairman of the newly registered
National Rescue Movement, (NRM) Senator Saidu Dansadau has dismissed the ruling
All Progressives Congress, (APC) as a colossal failure whose performance has
fallen short of expectations of Nigerians.
He made the declaration at the weekend during
the launching of his party and the public presentation of its vision for
Nigerians. Senator Dansadau scored the President Muhammadu Buhari
administration low in tackling insecurity, revamping the economy and further
noted
that it has fuelled mutual ethnic distrust among Nigerians.
that it has fuelled mutual ethnic distrust among Nigerians.
He said:’’
Today, the bind of unity of the country is under
intense strain. Strident agitations of all kinds from several quarters suggest
the balkanization of the country along ethnic lines. Hitherto silent fault
lines have developed into the gulf, sowing suspicion and deep distrust, shaking
the foundations of our unity and threatening the peace and security of our dear
country.
‘’Insecurity and vices of frightening shapes and
dimensions assail the land. Every patriotic Nigerian believes, the nation isn’t
moving in
the right direction. This country has never been as divided as it is now.
the right direction. This country has never been as divided as it is now.
‘’All these are manifestations of accumulated
years of bad leadership and of hollow commitment to the principles of
patriotism.
They have
robbed our country of direction or focus, allowed impunity, nepotism and mediocrity to be the blocks of a once promising nation.
robbed our country of direction or focus, allowed impunity, nepotism and mediocrity to be the blocks of a once promising nation.
‘’In the absence of natural disasters, our
leaders have invented some man-made ones and through misadventures, have
saddled the country with every imaginable vice, from wanton and dastardly
killings, with no regard for the sanctity of human life, to kidnappings, armed
robbery, ritual killings, insurgency and other economic despoliation.’’
He called on Nigerians to be prepared to vote
out the ruling party to experience a turnaround in their individual fortunes.
‘’This state of affairs calls for urgent action, the nature of which must be
beyond partisanship if we must rescue the country and its people from the
morass in which it is currently entrapped.
‘’This launch today, therefore, is one of the
first steps towards our resolve to change the face of our dear country and do
things
differently. The time is ripe. The time is now.
differently. The time is ripe. The time is now.
‘’Every responsible government must exist to
serve the people. Where a political change doesn’t secure an improvement in the
lives of the
people, that change has failed. And the nation must be rescued from such miscued change.
people, that change has failed. And the nation must be rescued from such miscued change.
‘’It is our resolve in the National Rescue
Movement to do things differently and stand out in the crowd. We must restore
to this nation, respect, dignity and confidence.
We are set to give the people of this country
the confidence that if they work hard in legitimate pursuit, the system will
encourage and support them to attain the potentials of their abilities.
Also speaking a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) Alhaji
Buba Galadima appealed to faithful of the NRM to cooperate with Senator
Dansadau, to enable him to give his best to the new party. ‘’NRM is a party
that doesn’t believe in tribalism and nepotism. It is a party for Nigerians of
all seasons. Senator Dansadau is a man of integrity, a man of intellect and a
fighter. For those of us who have worked with him, he is a diligent man.
The NRM will do what is right for the party and our country. I,
therefore, recommend the new face of politics in Nigeria.’’
