Identifying The Political Frogs by cooldrinks: 10:38am On Oct 01, 2017 |
the political frogs are people who jump from one party to another when they know their political dreams can no longer be achieved in the party that they belong to. These people’s representatives no longer consider themselves as servants of the people as they claimed to be when seeking to be elected but have become a super class having acquired money, power and status by the sheer virtue of being elected. Their motto is power for powers sake and wants the existing system to thrive. The political system has deteriorated so much today that it is hard to identify to which political party or which polarized group of the party a representative may belong to. So much that we will have to refer to them as leaping frogs. Because some of them have changed camps that even committed political watchers would find it hard to say which side they are on the talk like PDP but act like APC and vice versa. political stability in such circumstances become impossible because This amphibious habit of leaping from tree to tree and land to water got to be halted. That cannot be done by reformation of the system of elections alone. I am not against frogging if I may call it so, but I believe that every member of the upper and lower chamber or of every political party position should at least quit their positions before jumping to another party. without that it suggests that you're laughing at the people who voted you there in the first place. As the Election year comes up, we will begin to see the frogs jumping from one party to another because they don't want to miss the opportunity that 2019 presents to them, but they forget that at the end we the people will have to vote for or against them. We have seen ministers and Senators in former PDP government telling us to join APC we have seen people who enjoyed PDP coming out to publicly condemn PDP all this so they can join the ruling party APC. The Truth is that the APC likes that because it makes them look relevant in their irrelevance. Let us look out for the political frogs and deny them our votes. They don't deserve it. A list should be made DEFECTION LIST to show who defected from party to party. This people don't deserve to take that sit. |
