Former presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the 2023 general elections, Prince Adewole Adebayo, has warned Nigerians against supporting any form of military takeover, saying that nothing good ever comes out of military rule.
Adebayo made this statement during an interview on Politics Today on Channels Television, where he reacted to the recent rumours of a possible coup that caused tension across the country.
He noted that democracy may be fragile, but it remains the best system of government that gives power to the people and promotes accountability.
According to him, “The best way to prevent coups and political crises is through good governance. When leaders perform well, the military will have no reason to interfere.”
He further explained that both military and civilian authorities must ensure transparency and accountability, urging Nigerians to continue supporting civilian leadership as the only path to progress.
Adebayo also warned politicians that bad governance could one day threaten their tenure and stability, just as insecurity threatens the lives of ordinary citizens.
