The INEC argument that Nigeria has too many registered
political parties as a reason to deregister political parties are fallacious,
misleading and a faulty reductio de absurdum at best only propaganda being orchestrated
by INEC Commissioner for Voter’s
Education Barrister Festus Okoye and INEC Spokesperson.
Nigerians are not stupid nor are they illiterates; A Nation
cannot be an island unto itself; that is the more reason a comparison of what
obtains in other climes is necessary before jumping to the conclusion as to whether
Nigeria has more than necessary political parties for our population of 250
million peoples and a GNP of $1,12 Trillion Dollars.
In this contest of universal comparison with other
democracies of the world showed that Nigeria with 91 registered political
parties had the least number of political parties in comparison with her large population
of over 250 million peoples and a GNP of over $1.12 Trillion Dollars and the largest
economy in Africa and the third-largest democracy in the world.
In other climes like India has 2,599 registered political parties to a population
of 1.33 Trillion peoples and a GDP of $2.6 Trillion Dollars, South Africa has 560 registered political parties with a population of 40 million peoples just about the size of Eastern Region of
Nigeria by population and GDP. The Benin Republic has over 301 registered political
parties almost 4 times the number of Nigeria’s 91 parties and has only a population of 11.2 million peoples and GNP of 25 billion dollars just about the
size of Edo state by population, size, and GNP. The UK has 492 parties to a population
of 66.4 million peoples, Russia has 87 political parties to a population of 145
million, USA has 1200 Political Parties to a population of 325.7Million people. France has 96 political parties to 66.99 million peoples, Germany has 89
political parties to a population of 83.9 million peoples, Senegal has 250
political parties to a population of 15.8 million peoples and a GDP of $16.4
Billion dollars just about the size of the Kebbi state of Nigeria. Togo has 48
political Parties with a Population of 7.9 million peoples and a GNP of $12.2
billion dollars just about the size of Anambra state in population and GNP and
territorial integrity. The Gambia has 96 political parties to a population of 2.42 million people, Ethiopia has 76 parties to a population of 114 million peoples,
Turkey has 87 political parties to 84.3 million peoples.
Our research on if any democratic country for the past 80 years has
deregistered political parties for any reason in the entire world is that no country in the entire world have ever deregistered political parties after
registration. The registered parties are allowed to grow organically from
small, to middle age and to old age and to die naturally or merge with other political
parties.
The question is from where did Nigeria have the culture and
idea of deregistering political parties? These were the kangaroo constitutional
alterations started by the PDP government in 2007 in order to evolve into a one-party state and to rule Nigeria forever; the PDP then ruling government pushed
into the constitution obnoxious, diabolical alternations as to win one seat
in a general election for the reason of continuous existence of political parties.
The APC failed government which is a splinter and offshoot of the PDP met this trend and
also are articulating it through the unconstitutional illegal section 225A of the 4th constitutional alternation in order to
form a one-party state of APC to rule Nigeria forever. So the propaganda that
Nigeria Parties are too many is a fallacy, untrue and a faulty reductio de absurdum
addressed to achieve the diabolical plot of establishing the APC government as
a one-party state to rule Nigeria forever.
In the theories of Advance Mathematical induction of differentiation and Partial Fractions when you continue to deregister political parties after every general election for whatever flimsy reasons and register new Parties you will impoverish the political constituency, wary them out, outspent them and after a portable repeated delisting you would end up with one Party remaining; as in a continuum of Self destruct of the polity.
As explained above all Nigerians now know the truth and we appeal to you all to allow Multi-Party democracy to grow and flourish in Nigeria. Nigeria is ripe for at least 200 political parties
which if well supported could play oversight functions of Job creation, invest
in farming, healthcare, banking, support for youth women and the vulnerable,
invest in Agriculture, industries, Education, environment etc…which are
provided for in the various manifestos of these political parties.
We must tell you that the federal government of Nigeria does not fund any political parties nor does she give them grants or any financial support, so the parties are not a burden to the taxpayers as the promoters use their personal resources to fund these parties and contribute to the advancement of the Nigerian Federation as stakeholders.
The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja under the incorruptible remarkable Justice Anwuli Chikere on the 17th of February 2020 has stopped INEC from deregistering any political party in Nigeria through a permanent interlocutory injunction but INEC has refused to obey the court orders.
We solicit
your understanding and cooperation now that you know the truth of the
diabolical plots of the cabals to strangulate the gains of multi-party
democracy from the peoples of Nigeria and establish a feudal one party
aristocracy it is your duty to stand up and say no to this diabolical agenda of the sophists.
