BY COMRADE  SILAS MEABE 

The National Chairman Coalition For The Protection Of Democracy (COPDEM). Prince Rwang Pam Jo,said the only thing that will make the government of the day to change is by forming a strong alliance that will force bring the attention of Nigerians together so that they can ask for change or demand good governance if the current government will still be there.

He said this yesterday during New Nigeria Outh Summit with a theme:Attracting Diaspora Investing Pulling Nigeria Out of Poverty and Transforming into A Economic Power.organised by coalition for the protection of democracy(COPDEM).

Prince Rwang Pam said let look for good people that will save Nigeria,enough of complaining, Nigeria most move forward and citizens most enjoy the dividend of democracy in Nigeria.

The former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi who was one of the panelists, lamented the state of Nigeria’s democracy, saying the country no longer qualifies to be regarded as a democratic nation.


“Most unfortunately in our present state, our dear country Nigeria cannot be classified as a democratic country. Democracy is said to be a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Yet, none of these three measures exist in our democracy today,” Obi said.

Obi criticised the electoral process, noting that rules and requirements for participation are routinely violated.

Reflecting on the symbolic significance of June 12 in Nigeria’s democratic struggle, Obi expressed concern that the country, under the current administration, has seen a broad erosion of democratic values in just two years.

“It is deeply troubling that under the present administration, in a short span of two years, our nation has witnessed a broad erosion of democratic principles,” he said.


He highlighted a corresponding deterioration in security, economic stability, and social services, including education and healthcare.

“We have traversed from rigged elections to collapsing social service, from soaring poverty to rising corruption, and from a seemingly stable economy to a parallel economy,” Obi stated.

Obi accused the federal government of manipulating public perception rather than addressing the challenges facing the nation 

“Nigerians living in poverty have increased from 38.9% to 54%. Within this period, 129 million Nigerians now live below poverty line,” he added.

“Today, we have 18.3 million children out of school, the highest in the world. Our children are now being taught science without science labs and computer without computers. They are now taking exams in darkness with candles,” he said

He concluded that the country is “declining fast in all its facets,” warning that the rule of law has become virtually non-existent and that governance is failing to meet the basic needs of the people.
