Mutfwang<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to Punch, Tanko said the ruling party is not challenged, they would completely clean other parties from the political scene.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs I said earlier, these particular set of people in power are vicious politicians. I repeat the word vicious again for emphasis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGradually, we are beginning to witness completely captured states where all the institutions have already been bought, intimidated or blackmailed to do the bidding of the present political party and the government in power.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no hanky-panky about it. They are clear on what they want to do and they are putting our democracy in power.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is now left for us to really challenge these particular people otherwise they are going to take us completely to the cleaners. And they don\u2019t care how, when, and where they do it as long as it favours them. This is the danger.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow the electorates are being discouraged from going out to vote for candidates of their choice knowing that the mandate can be snatched. They are already in control of the state apparatus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had a similar situation at a point when the PDP was in power. These particular people in power will be referencing how virtually everybody was joining the PDP (during President Olusegun Obasanjo\u2019s administration) then.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was no clear ideology and that was what gave birth to the APC conglomerate. But in this case, it is a different matter entirely. These people in power are just too vicious,\u201d Tanko stated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Labour Party (LP) has reacted to the sacking of Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State by the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja.
