NNPP warns opposition must survive for Nigeria's democracy to thrive

The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has warned that attempts to steer Nigeria toward a one-party state will ultimately collapse, insisting that the opposition must survive for democracy to thrive.

The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has issued a stark warning amid concerns over political defections in Nigeria. The party asserts that any efforts to push the country toward a one-party state are doomed to fail. This statement, published on December 20, 2025, underscores the NNPP's belief that a robust opposition is essential for sustaining democracy. The remarks highlight ongoing shifts in political alignments, though specific details on recent defections remain limited in available reports. NNPP emphasizes that without opposition survival, Nigeria's democratic framework risks erosion.
