Nigerians from all walks of life have been responding to the Newdawn exclusive Interview with Dr Dapo Thomas of the Lagos state University on the schism in the ruling All Progressives Congress(APC) and other national issues.
The responses are as varied and divergent as the diversities of the country and its people.
But then it speaks volume on peoples attitude to the evolving development and the stakes as perceived by readers:
Here are some excerpts:

First and foremost I must acknowledge the power of this words used by Dr. Dapo Thomas “A nation where a politician sleeps as a member of All Progressives Congress (APC) and wakes up the following day as a member of People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is a classical testament to political infidelity.”
It is appalling that a lawmaker can boldly come out publicly to give rope to members of his constituents as a constitutional project. What a shame in Borno state. Did I just mentioned State? It is all over the 36 states. Mostly renovating a building that was accepted to be rebuild. Taking the rest money to greener pocket.
Indeed the salaries of these lawmakers are not alarming as the senators received N750,000. But the allowance is what is appalling. Most especially the Constitutional allowance.
Dr. I must commend that you’ve said it all. I hope a day will come to this country where defection of party members will be prohibited.. This is what is Killing the nation. They just see where it’s Rossy and put there head. Now most of them has started defecting to PDP but I’m 100% sure that if APC should win the next election they will all defect back to APC.
On the Contrary, is sickening to see how these leaders are already aspiring for or making move of there 2023 ambition as if the position is only met for the elders alone. I can’t imagine Tinubu taking over as the next president of this Country. It’s appalling that same leaders who have been ruling from 1999 are same people set to continue again comes 2023.

These are raw facts born out of deep research and a high level of intellectualism at play. This piece encompasses the Nigerian system in all aspect and it is a massive eye opener to both the government and its people. This is a job well-done sir and these words have come at the right time sir.

You’ve said it all Dr. Dapo. There is urgent need for Sociopolitical overhauling in the polity of our nation if we desire to come out from this pitiable dungeon we’ve found ourselves.

I agree to a very large extent with Dr Dapo Thomas. The only area I differ is his inability to state clearly that the Parliamentary system is cheaper and should be recommended to Nigeria.

That is no new news as all things were concocted falsely and deceptively or assembled so the disintegration ‘ll happen before the next whistle is blown by the good grace of the Almighty God. WISDOM & THE UNAVOIDABLE REPERCUSSIONS.

That’s how they prophesy that pdp may disintegrate in 2014.
