The APC chieftain also said the new leadership must operate on a platform of conviction politics envisioned by the founding members of the APC.

He said the APC remains the most acceptable party for any serious politician to actualise their dreams.

Why Nigerians don't want PDP again

Senator Musa recalled that the APC came into power in 2015 and Nigerians re-elected the party again in 2019.

He said Nigerians didn't consider the opposition party Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) because they don't want to go back to the era where the nation's resources were "used to enrich the political class and their cronies".

His words:

"We are gradually departing from the vicious politics of patronage and clearly, the people have called for a paradigm shift both from the political parties and to the system of governance."

In Okocha's opinion, winning the next presidential election will be a very difficult task for the APC because Nigerians have lost confidence in the party.

The chieftain, who spoke with Leadership on Tuesday, August 17, noted that the party which came into power with the promise and mantra of changing the woeful status quo allegedly brought about by the 16-year rule of the PDP did not make any meaningful progress in terms of economy, infrastructure, healthcare delivery, and job creation.
