The Action Democratic Party (ADP) has distanced itself from the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP-led Coalition of Unity Political Parties (CUPP) involving about 38 political parties.
TheNewsGuru reports Kayode Jacobs, ADP Director Media, as saying the ADP is not part of the CUPP.
He said the Action Democratic Party (ADP) will be addressing the press on Wednesday 11 July to let Nigerians know why they have opted out of the coalition.
The party, in a press statement on Tuesday, said the vision of the ADP does not go in line with the reasons for such coalition.
According to the statement, the ADP posited that as a credible alternative political party against the misrule of the past, present government and political parties, it would be wrong to join same method used by the ruling APC where strange bed fellows came together for the purpose of wrestling power from the then President.
The party says that this level of desperation where political parties will keep coming with the habit of forming coalition every four years won’t be to the best interest of Nigerians and that of the nation’s democracy.
The statement further read that the coalition is not for the purpose of making Nigeria great but for selfish interest of those involved.
The party said if Nigerians should critically look at those in the formation of the CUPP, majority of them are the architect of Nigeria’s problems, that teaming up with such people won’t speak well.
ADP however assured members and Nigerian public that their vision is for a new and better Nigeria and not that of desperate politicians queuing and teaming up to take power from another failed government in order to continue the circle of failure.
