He said few elites with enormous resources claimed they own Nigeria and have hijacked the political space of the country, saying, “they control everyone through their numerous political parties.”
“By the virtue of my former position as the former Deputy National Chairman of IPAC, which is the umbrella body of all registered political parties in Nigeria, I discovered that most of the parties are owned by one elite or the other.”
“If I mention their names you will know. The former Vice President own four political parties. ”
“Some Senators own political parties. They give out money to register political parties and many political parties have been hijacked.”
“The party I was before which is called Action Congress, AC, was registered by Atiku Abubakar and Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2005 and they still have interest despite being in another parties.”
Dr. Onwubuya recalled how IPAC was closely monitored by the duo to ensure the umbrella body was not taking steps that were not in their interest.
