According to Abdullahi Ganduje, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), there is nothing wrong with Nigeria’s one-party system.

After leading a group of three senators from Kebbi state to meet with President Bola Tinubu on Friday, Ganduje made this statement.

According to reports, three senators from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Adamu Aliero, Yahaya Abdullahi, and Garba Maidoki, announced their decision to join the APC.

Ganduje, while answering to whether the tide of defection of opposition lawmakers to the ruling APC will not slide Nigeria into a one-party state, citing China as an example of a working one-party state.

“We came here so that Mr President can bless this resolution, and Mr President has graciously blessed this resolution. On Tuesday, I urge you to go and see what will happen in the chambers.

“If a one-party state is a wish and blessing to Nigeria… a one-party state is not by force. One party’s state is by negotiation, and it is by other political parties seeing the effect of the positive governance of our party.

“If they decide to come to our party willingly, I think there is nothing wrong with that. You know they say too many cooks spoil the soup — too many political parties spoil governance.

“China is one of the strongest countries in the world, and it’s a one-party system,” he said.
