Director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thought, Dr Sam Amadi, has frowned at the idea of state governors defecting to the ruling party to align with the centre.
Fielding questions in an interview on Arise Television on Tuesday, Amadi said such an act defies the logic of
state creation.
He said: “The idea of having a state is being able to
harness your resources and development.
“We have not got economics right in terms of development. So
now that everybody is going to the centre, are we going back to centralizing?
“So basically, we’ve not got economics rights in terms of
development, maybe politics, in some sense.”
Many state governors have defected from their parties into
the ruling All Progressives Congress.
Among them are the governors of Delta, Akwa-Ibom, Bayelsa,
Rivers, Enugu, Kano, Plateau and recently, Taraba state.
