Professor Jerry Gana, a former minister of Information, has claimed that there is no government in Nigeria.
Gana said this on Wednesday while addressing members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at a reception in Bida, Niger State, to mark his return to the party.
He promised party members that in 2023 the party will work together solidly and effectively in its campaign to capture power both in the state and the centre.
He said: “Today is not a day for lecture. It is not a day for campaigns. We just want to rejoice that we are back together solidly; and we are going to work together solidly, that we are going to work together effectively, that we are going to campaign powerfully.
“I tell you, we are going to go around strategically, in such a way that the All Progressives Congress (APC) so called government, whether in Niger state; is there a Government in Niger State? Because many people are not aware, or at the Centre? At federal level, we don’t even have a Government.”
Gana, a member of the Board of Trustees of the PDP, dumped the party for the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in March 2018.
Party leaders from across the three senatorial zones of the state assured the party faithful at the reception that the PDP is ready to take over Niger and salvage it from the “deflated state that it is under the ruling APC”.
