PPP
- Peoples Progressive Party was founded on a platform of
returning government, electoral control, spending control,
policing, and political authority to the teaming masses and
communities of Nigeria, who has been systematically and
institutionally abused, disenfranchised and enslaved,
rendered powerless and politically irrelevant in their own
land by the political class from the time of the
colonialists to the present day.
PPP
came about as a product of necessity. It was born by a group
of dedicated and patriotic non-establishment and
non-conforming politicians while participating at the 2005/2006
PEOPLES' NATIONAL CONFERENCE organized by the
Pro-democracy group, PRONACO.
The party is fast assuming the consciousness of the nation.
It
is a non-personality based party. We applied for recognition
to the electoral body in Nigeria, Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) in August 2006 and on the 30th
of October 2006, Peoples Progressive Party was accorded full
recognition as a legally empowered political party in
Nigeria.
In
a record time of six months, the party established far
reaching presence in all the 36 states of the federation. We
are currently building on that success, translating it into
sustainable grassroots activism.
Our
party believes that the political and governing systems in
Nigeria are so bad that the very best of leaders with the
very best of intentions can not succeed. We believe that
Nigeria's greatness can only be unleashed when two things
happen:
1.
The country is restructured to eliminate the concentration
of economic and security powers to the center, and
2.
The rights of the people to truly choose their leaders and
directly control the country's constitution is enshrined
in the constitution.
These
are the battle cries of the Peoples Progressive Party.
PPP
was formed at a remarkable time, a turning point and at a
crossroad in the life of our country. Our failed economy
gives Nigeria a unique chance to confront persistent
challenges and the many constitutional and structural
defects in the federation. Our country, after many decades
of purposeless drift, must now set itself to the confront
the important tasks and higher goals of facing up to our
painful truths, which are:
>>
To correct constitutional and structural imbalances.
>>
To remove State erected barriers against self reliance and
economic emancipation.
>>
To replace a welfare economy with a workfare economy.
Without
these basic structural corrections, economic growth and
development will continue to elude us as a people and as a
nation.
The
Peoples Progressive Party is providing the vision and
leadership to address these issues. Our platform is
uplifting and visionary. It reflects the views of countless
Nigerians all across this country, who believe in prosperity
with a purpose; wealth driven by enterprise - people who
believe in Renewing Nigeria’s Purpose.
PPP
has a special calling - to advance the principles of
freedom; to decentralize governance; and to ensure the
dignity and worth of every individual. These principles form
the foundation of our agenda for Nigeria in this decade and
beyond.
WE
ARE A PEOPLES' PARTY INDEED, focused on the single purpose
of lifting up the poor and oppressed Nigerians on the
forgotten streets and villages across our country; Those
left to rot and die by the “political lords” of our
time, an uncaring government who see the people as nuisance,
rather than RESOURCES.
