Presidential candidate of the Peoples Redemption Party, PRP, Donald Duke, has expressed the sense of urgency regarding the state of Nigeria, stressing the need for urgent intervention to avoid future disaster.
Duke made this remark on Tuesday when he appeared as a guest
in an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Prime Time’
The former Cross River State Governor said he decided to
return to politics because of the urgency of where citizens currently are in
Nigeria, calling on the opposition to come together and change the direction of
the country.
According to him, Nigeria’s leadership from when he was
governor is not addressing the critical issues in the country.
“I returned to politics because of the urgency of where we
are in Nigeria today. Disaster is looming if we don’t change the trajectory.
“You could be a spectator and make all sorts of analyses, or
you could get involved. The direction the country is going requires urgent
intervention.
“The folks who are in charge of the country today are
generally my generation, as it were, and the president and I were the class of
’99. But the direction the country is going, I think, requires very urgent
intervention.
“I’m not a member of the ruling party, as it were. So
automatically, I’m in the opposition. Ideally, the opposition should come
together,” he said.
