LAGOS, Nigeria – National chairman of Advance Democratic Congress ADC ,Chief Ralph Nwosu has stated that the call for military to take over in Nigeria was an unthinkable option . Chief Nwosu ,who spoke with journalists in Awka ,Anambra state said that military regime is no longer fashionable anywhere in the world and there is no need calling for it .
” Military is not fashionable anywhere. Democracy is the best ,there is no need to be asking military to take over from President Mohammed Buhari” he said. Robert Clarke, a prominent lawyer and social commentator had last week called for military to take over government in Nigeria to address security challenges.
According to Clarke , the country was at the brink of collapse and suggested the political leadership should hand power to the military so that the security forces could be restructured.
Nwosu said that the major problems facing Nigeria Democracy is the process of election, noting that immediately that is corrected, Nigeria will get quality leaders. According to him, where voters are induced to vote in an election, the right leaders will not emerge .
“The country is going down because of compromises in our electoral process . There are alot of people in the government who cannot articulate any idea because they came up through compromise and godfatherism .
The fraudulent elections in our country has entered our churches ,traditional institutions . They have created impression that democracy is fraudulent.
“People are giving money in an election to vote and at the end wrong people without idea will emerge because they paid people to be voted for. It is a sad development ” he said .
