What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by BluntCrazeMan: 5:44am On Jun 15, 2021 |
A lot of the rascalities of the ruling parties (which includes the abandonment of the laws while making policies) are partly blamed on the opposition parties for not doing their job of opposition very well. .. And I am now asking: “What exactly are the jobs of the opposition?” Is it to publish the rascalities of the ruling parties on the news and social media? Or to sue the ruling parties to court? .. I mean, what exactly are they supposed to be doing? .. By extension: “What exactly are the jobs of a non-partisan citizen who really wants to make an impact on the politcal system in a democratic system?” |

Playing opposition is not easy.. Now, we really need to pity any non-partisan citizen who still wants to make a change in the political system. |

I also need to know if “Periodic Elections” is the only thing that characterises Democracy. .. If there are other things, I need to know all of them.. .. (The Nigerian Democracy had always been like as if the only thing that is democratic about it is the “periodic elections”, and nothing else -- I don't want to believe this though) |

Is any political party opposing Apc government even when they are doing the wrong thing? Both the main party and opposition are the same |

Nigeria doesn't have a reasonable opposition, they are similar thieves waiting for their turn, hoping it comes quickly |

Monogamy:Let's assume a Perfect Democratic System here. .. .. “What exactly are the jobs of the opposition in a Perfect Democratic System?” |

BluntCrazeMan: There main jobs are to criticize constructively when the main party is not doing the right thing.. Proffer solutions to the problems facing the country.. The oppositions we have in Nigeria are merely wailers , wailing cos they are not in power not that they care about the country,just like the main party |
Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by BluntCrazeMan: 6:17am On Jun 15, 2021 |
Monogamy:In Nigeria, criticisms are referred to as Wailing. .. And anyone that tries to profer a solution is either overlooked or termed Wailer. And if the person is in the major opposition, the narrative changes to: “You were there all these 16 years” |
Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by BluntCrazeMan: 6:18am On Jun 15, 2021 |
Monogamy:Maybe, sueing them to court can make them not to see criticisms as Wailing, as they would be answering for their rascalities in the court, rather than issuing press statements My thoughts though.. |
Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by Monogamy: 6:19am On Jun 15, 2021 |
BluntCrazeMan: Constructive criticism is totally different from wailing... Take Pdp spokesman for example, has he ever proffer any solutions to the problems the country is facing apart from blaming game? How are the opposition states fairing themselves? 1 Like |

BluntCrazeMan: Let me tell you what some of you people don't know. There are different government agencies on NL... They have been making use of some suggestions/solutions presented by ordinary NL... Example Lowering of Nigeria flags when Attahiru died in the plane crash... Southern states banning open grazing with state assembly passing the law and the the back up from court of law.. So many like that... Atiku as the main opposition leader, what has he said about the troubling herdsmen? |

959nine: This is one of the opposition supporters.. His only way of opposing the main party is by cancelling the comments of their supporters yet expecting people to take him and his likes seriously... The opposition are even worse than the main party |

You've been asking project questions or an assignment questions given to you.... You should state it out clearly... |

To pursue programs of SOCIAL ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL EMANCIPATION FOR ALL THEIR PEOPLE IRRESPECTIVE OF PARTY ALIGNMENT. |

yanabasee1: Is it something very very wrong for me to ask project questions or assignment questions here on Nairaland?? Or you want me to elongate my write-ups further by writing things like: “I was given a project topic/assignment in my school, but I don't want to base my research on the findings on Google, so I decided to come over to Nairaland. The project topic/assignment goes like this”?? .. Isn't it better that I went directly to the questions straight-away??. .. If I stated clearly that I was asking the questions for the purpose of writing my project/assignment, what would you have differently?? (other than reminding me of Google) |
Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by BluntCrazeMan: 12:03pm On Jun 15, 2021 |
Monogamy:Well.. I want to know if there are established modes of operation for the opposition parties. .. As for the uses of NL, I never doubted. |
Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by Monogamy: 1:24pm On Jun 15, 2021 |
BluntCrazeMan: There are no basic modes of operation for opposition party... |
Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by yanabasee1(m): 3:28pm On Jun 15, 2021 |
BluntCrazeMan: There's a better chance getting the desired answers if you come out open... On your project or research or assignment, I doubt if you'll ever make your reference in respect to nairaland. I would have given you my own answers.... Ideas are golds and you don't just get it at a plata... |

yanabasee1:I am not doing any project or research or topic... .. I am just asking lots of questions, just the way they popped into my head. .. So chill your head |
Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by BluntCrazeMan: 4:09pm On Jun 20, 2021 |
yanabasee1:Meanwhile, truthful answers to the questions would provide possible answers to the Nigerian situation. And that is why I require the responses not to be as if people are trying to help me solve my own research-problems and score my academic points. |

To Make senseless Noise ( In the case of Nigeria )

Re: What Are The Exact Works Of The Opposition Parties In A Democratic System? by BluntCrazeMan: 4:14pm On Jun 20, 2021 |
Frontail:In reality, they just make noise. .. But in ideal case, they should be sueing any arm of the government that are abusing their powers to court, while at the same time, constructively criticise them on their minor shortcomings over the public media |

Highlight the failings of the ruling party and show alternative solutions. Alot of opposition parties fail in my opinion because nobody knows what they support because of bad branding. Lastly focus on flipping seats in off year elections to build momentum. BluntCrazeMan: Talk to your fellow citizens. Get in contact with political figure tell them how to solve x. 1 issue I have is with the FG is they dont mail documents to people. I dont understand why we have NIPOST if they can't be trusted to deliver drivers licenses, passports, voter cards etc. 2 Likes |
