I want to address the ONLY reason why people say #PeterObi cannot be trusted to be president. They accuse #PeterObi of jumpin from one party to the other and so he is unreliable, unstable and can't be trusted. This cannot be any farther away from the truth. Tinubu Anambra Fashola
This is my answer. Political parties IN NIGERIA are not ideology driven. Political parties are mere platforms upon which and through which party members mobilize and seek for votes. Contrast this with countries like the UK and USA where political platforms are ideology.
Driven. The net effect of this is that where political platforms are driven by ideologies, these ideologies determine and go straight to the CHARACTER and WAY OF LIFE of party members. Defection in this instance to another party means the party adherent is said to have.
Abandoned and reneged on his previous character, way of life and ideology. It can therefore be said that that party adherent is of UNSTABLE CHARACTER, UNRELIABLE AND CANNOT BE TRUSTED. @AfamDeluxo@firstladyship help me increase the vawulence volume
Therefore in Nigeria where political platforms are not ideology driven, a person defectin from one party to another can't be said to be of questionable character because the political parties from which he is defecting have no ideologies upon which he character could be assessed
There is therefore no correlation between the character of a person and political parties IN NIGERIA.
