One-Party State will lead to Anarchy, warns Jonathan

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has warned that any attempt or manipulation to impose A One-Party System on The Nation’s Political Space will suffocate the Country and possibly lead to confusion and anarchy.

 Jonathan gave the warning in Abuja yesterday during The Memorial Lecture and Day of Tribute for the Former Federal Commissioner for Information, and South-South Leader, Chief Edwin Clark.

 The Ex-President noted that A One-Party State may not be an evil thing as Julius Nyerere of Tanzania used It to Unite His Country because they have many tribes but noted that It was procedural in Tanzania, and not through manipulation.

According to Jonathan, If A One-Party State has become desirable for the Country, the process must be thorough and Systemic, not by Political Manipulations. The Former President raised the concern against the backdrop of the Gale of Defections sweeping through the Ranks of opposition Parties in the Country
