Opposition Is NOT Condemnation Or Sycophancy! Ben-murray-bruce by OgunNewsFact: 12:14pm On Jan 03, 2016 |
Opposition Is NOT Condemnation or Sycophancy! To those who feel disappointed when I commend President Muhammadu Buhari, I say the only way to be an # effectiveopposition is to be a honest one. If the President does well, I will commend. If he doesn't, I will say so. Beyond that, I will also suggest alternative solutions. This whole idea that the opposition must condemn everything the President does is a misreading of what effective opposition is all about. Some political parties may have done that to the PDP while in opposition but an eye for an eye leaves the world blind. What the opposition must do is present alternative and better ideas than the party in power rather than be reactionary. Our people are smarter than politicians give them credit for. They will reject opposition for the sake of opposition. Modern politics is a contest of ideas. We in the PDP must battle by laying out ideas to improve the lives of Nigerians. It is not called condemnation. It is called opposition, meaning that you oppose the Government by proffering opposing ideas. At the other end of the scale, we should not applaud everything President Buhari does. Opposition is not sycophancy. We must show Nigerians that we aren't 'wailing wailers', but rather we are True Progressives with ideas not propaganda. We must help our Governors deliver visible and lasting transformation in the states as an example of what we can do. We must show PDP is different by ensuring our Governors pay minimum wage promptly and dont join those seeking its reduction. We must also show PDP is different by ensuring our Govs obey court orders and subject themselves to the Constitution. These steps will win more hearts amongst Nigerians and will herald a new era of purposeful progressive opposition. Sen. Ben Murray-Bruce 1 Like 1 Share |

Tell 'em Senator Bruce. You've spoken truthfully, but with regards to your final statement, you may win many hearts but I dare say, not under the acronym PDP. (..It's now being associated with waste & LAWMA!!!) |

For now we don't have credible opposition as we only have group of embittered species hallucinating from the hangover of GEJ defeat. 1 Like |

How I wish there is a provision in the constitution that enables swapping the president. This man bores all the qualities of a good president both academically and otherwise. Being in the ruling party does not also mean sheer YES BOSS attitude of some misguided Yorubas |

Opposition is not opening your mouth without anything objective to talk about. What and how would you handle situations differently? Just saying this one or thing ; BAD, BAD BAD.WITHOUT without concrete stuffs to back it up is confirmed idiocy. Jonathan was labelled clueless and justly so. I can give you over 100 instances of his cluelessness. |
