Benue State governor, Samuel Ortom, has said that Nigeria, under the All Progressives Congress (APC), is witnessing its worst level of disunity since independence.
The governor disclosed this Wednesday during an interview with journalists at Makurdi Airport, following his return from Abuja where he attended an expanded meeting of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders.
He said: “They (APC) have shown that they are not a government that believes in protecting the life and property of Nigerians. Nepotism is at its highest level in this country under the APC government. Nigeria, since independence, has never been divided like this. Everybody is working for himself.
“Tribalism is promoted above the unity of the country. We cannot afford to fail Nigerians by not providing an alternative platform as we walk towards 2023. Because of that, we have met with the stakeholders of our party to find ways towards reforming the party.
Ortom said the APC has failed Nigerians on all fronts including economy, security, and the anti-corruption fight. He regretted that the ruling party has abandoned the citizens to their fate.
