The Mega Progressive People’s Party has advised politicians
and civil rights activists to be cautious and guard against utterances capable
of heating up the polity in the future.
The party said the clamor for President Muhammadu Buhari’s
resignation by the ‘Resume or Resign Campaign’ protesters over his sickness was
politics taken too far.
Recognizing that Nigerians deserved to know the health
status of their president, MPPP said going to the streets to demand his
resignation was unnecessary and in bad taste.
The National Youth leader, Olorunyomi Ogunbodede, stated
this in an interview during the swearing-in of the 23-member State Executive
Committee of the party in Ekiti State.
The committee chaired by Chief Dare Adekolu and Mr, Francis
Owoeye as the Deputy Chairman, has Olatoye Aliu as secretary with Ajibola
Olayinka, Samuel Awe and Fadayomi Kehinde as vice chairmen for North, Central
and South, respectively.
Ogunbodede said, “Going to the streets to demand the
president’s resignation at this period is unhealthy for our country.
“We have a sitting vice president and ministers who are
carrying on the task. The constitution has already addressed the fear by
empowering the vice president to carry on. So, why generating tension?”
