The All Progressives Congress, APC, has said opposition political parties only talk on the television while the ruling party is busy engaging and mobilizing people at the grassroots.
The National Chairman of the party, Prof Nentawe Yilwatda, who said this on Sunday when he featured in an interview on Trust TV, added that it is not the responsibility of the APC to strengthen the opposition.
According to him, most of their work happens behind the scenes, stressing that what the public sees on TV is only the outcome, but the real process takes place away from the cameras.
His remark follows the growing number of governors joining the APC.
Prof Yilwatda equally stressed that the party is not promoting a one-party state.
“It’s not our duty to help our enemies to grow. I can’t feed my enemy. It’s not my duty. So they should labour they should go to the streets. That’s why I keep on saying that they spend more time on TV talking.
“Yesterday, I came back from Taraba. Tomorrow, I’m going to Katsina. I’m not receiving a governor. I’m going for mobilization. I’m engaging people. I’m talking to people. On Saturday, I’ll be in a different state again, where I’ll meet with people, discussing and mobilizing behind the scene,” he said.
