A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Segun Sowunmi, has dismissed claims that one term is enough for any President to fix Nigeria’s problems.
Sowunmi dismissed this mindset during an interview on TVC on
Thursday.
His comment comes as the country gets closer to the 2027
general elections with some presidential aspirants saying they would fix
Nigeria’s challenges in one term.
“Anyone who says one term is okay for them to take care of
all the challenges bedeviling us as a nation is either a liar or a fraud.
“They boast about how easy it is to do a very difficult job,
but they won’t tell you how they are going to do it.
“The one that could have made it for us to believe that it’s
possible was Goodluck Jonathan, who took over power from Umaru Yar’Adua.
“He completed that tenure and finished his legitimate own
from 2011-2015. How easy was it for us to get him to do that extra one?
“Just trying to force him, and on the strength of him trying
to complete two terms, was the reason that destroyed one of the major parties
that has not recovered till today,” he said.
