Nigerian journalist cum Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Dele Momodu, has said politics should never be a matter of life and death.

Naija News reports that Momodu took to his Instagram page to share photos of himself with the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He noted that the position of the Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, on working for APC while in PDP is something he cannot do.

According to him, neither of the two political parties will never trust anyone who makes such a decision because everyone respects people with principle and steadfastness.

The PDP chieftain said many of his friends in the ruling APC know his position on the flaws of the Independent National Electoral Commission and the 2023 presidential election.

He added that the INEC chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, permanently missed the golden chance of ever joining the pantheon of great and visionary icons of Democracy.

He wrote: “Politics should never be a matter of life and death, but I will not be in PDP and work for APC and still claim to be in PDP… Neither of the two parties will ever trust you.

“Everyone respects men and women of principle and steadfastness… There’s nothing more difficult than telling your own friends the truth but that’s the path chosen by me… Majority of my friends are in APC, but they know my position on INEC and the shambolic Presidential election of 2023.

“PROFESSOR MAHMUD YAKUBU permanently missed the golden chance of ever joining the pantheon of great and visionary icons of Democracy.

“Speaking TRUTH to power should be the duty of every responsible citizen, no matter who’s in office.”
