Ogun East Senatorial Candidate of Green Party of Nigeria (GPN), Armstrong Akintunde, has said that the two leading political parties in the country are not justifiable enough to seek Nigerians consent for another term in office.
Akintunde told journalists last weekend in Iperu Remo, Ogun State during the 33rd celebration of Akesan Day. He said that over the years the parties have failed to accomplish their campaign promises, reproving the parties of corruption and ineffective governance of which he ascribed to high rate of poverty, unemployment and insecurity in the country.
In Ogun State, the senatorial candidate declared that his party would unseat the ruling party, pointing out that “The GPN is the only focused party and has ceded 80 percent of its slot to the youths”.
He however promised to commit 80 percent of his salary to development of grassroots, if elected senator in 2019.
“Let me state categorically that in 2019 youths are taking over.
“As far as Ogun State is concerned, GPN is taking over. We are taking over because out of over 60 political parties in Nigeria, GPN is the only party that’s focused and give 80 percent chance to the youth without paying a dime for the nomination form. So, GPN is fully set and committed to take over,” Akintunde said with confidence.
