Senate President Godswill Akpabio, speaking at an event organized by the Kukah Centre with support from the European Union, expressed concern over the eroding trust in Nigerian political parties.
Represented by Senator Victor Umeh, Akpabio emphasized the urgent need to reposition political parties, addressing issues of impunity and a lack of accountability.
He asserted that transparency, including public disclosure of expenditures, is crucial for restoring public confidence in political institutions.
Akpabio acknowledged the vital role of political parties in the democratic process but emphasized the necessity of addressing issues that have diminished public trust in these institutions.
