“It has never been this bad in our national history. I, therefore, beckon on all Nigerians to join hands in the collective democratic efforts to rescue our nation from the stranglehold of the APC.
“This is more so because there is no way our country can survive if APC is allowed to stay in office a day beyond May 29, 2023,” he said.
