A coalition of political parties under the Conference of United Political Parties (CUPP) has backed calls by the House of Representatives Minority Caucus demanding the resignation of President Bola Tinubu over insecurity.
In a statement signed by its acting National Chairman, Chief Peter Ameh, the group said it is fully aligned with the view of the House of Reps Minority Caucus and believes that the current administration must rise to the challenges facing Nigerians or make way for leaders who can deliver meaningful results.
The group further noted that, “In a sane clime, any elected official who refuses to produce results of good governance that will help make the lives of the people better should honourably resign.”
It also called on the President to take decisive action and step up his leadership in tackling insecurity and other economic issues.
“President Bola Tinubu and his administration must step up immediately to address the pressing issues of insecurity, economic hardship, and the general wellbeing of Nigerians. Leadership is not a right but a responsibility. Where this responsibility is not being discharged effectively, the honourable path is resignation.”
“We urge the President to heed this call and take immediate, visible steps to alleviate the suffering of citizens across the country,” the statement read in part.
