CUPP backs Reps Minority Caucus, urges Tinubu to lead or resign

By John Alechenu

ABUJA — The Conference of United Political Parties (CUPP) has endorsed the House of Representatives Minority Caucus’ call on President Bola Tinubu to either demonstrate effective leadership or resign from office.

The Acting National Chairman of CUPP, Chief Peter Ameh, made the position known in a statement issued on Thursday in Abuja.

According to the opposition coalition, it fully aligns with the position of the Minority Caucus and believes the current administration must rise to the challenges facing Nigerians or make way for leaders capable of delivering results.

“In a sane clime, any elected official who refuses to produce results of good governance that will make the lives of the people better should honourably resign,” Ameh stated.

CUPP urged President Tinubu and his administration to take immediate steps to address the nation’s security challenges, economic hardship and the general welfare of citizens.

“Leadership is not a right but a responsibility. Where this responsibility is not being discharged effectively, the honourable path is resignation,” Ameh said.

The coalition reaffirmed its commitment to promoting good governance, accountability and the welfare of Nigerians.

“We urge the President to heed this call and take immediate, visible steps to alleviate the suffering of citizens across the country,” he added.

Ameh further stated that CUPP would continue to closely monitor developments in the country and would not hesitate to speak out in what it described as the best interest of the Nigerian people.
