By Charles Edet
Dr. Sampson Uchenna Charles, the first declared sole presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) before Mr Peter Obi, has responded to the ECOWAS reaction to the coup in Niger.
In his statement, he emphasized the need for those who seek justice to have clean hands.
He questioned the legitimacy of individuals like President Bola Tinubu and his cohorts who declared war on Niger while engaging in questionable activities themselves.
Dr. Charles expressed his delight in witnessing the awakening of the African continent, with countries like Niger rising against imperialism.
He believed it is crucial to support and be part of this revolution for the sustainable development of African nations.
He commended the people of Niger, both civilians and the military, for taking a bold step towards redeeming their nation.
The statement also raised important questions about governance and democracy. Dr. Charles criticizes the current state of democracy in Africa, where corrupt politicians exploit the system to loot and harm the people.
He rejected the Western notion of democracy and called for Africa to create its own model of leadership that serves the interests of its people and promotes real development.
Dr. Charles concluded by urging Africans to look inward and embrace their true potential as a great and resourceful continent.
