The recent physical fight by PDP Leaders which is seen through a video, highlights a key issue in Nigerian politics—leadership conduct and political maturity. When members of a political party, especially one positioning itself as an alternative government, engage in public brawls, it raises serious concerns about their ability to manage national affairs with diplomacy and discipline.
Political leadership requires patience, decorum, and problem-solving skills, especially in a democracy where disagreements should be resolved through dialogue, not violence. The PDP’s internal crises and public altercations undermine its credibility and reinforce doubts about its readiness for governance.
On the other hand, APC’s ability to maintain composure in difficult situations sends a different message—one of political stability and maturity. Nigerians must assess not just campaign promises but also the character and behavior of those seeking leadership positions. Governance is about order, responsibility, and the ability to handle challenges with wisdom.
The PDP’s lack of discipline and political maturity was on display again, proving it is not a viable alternative for governance. Leaders who resort to physical fights instead of diplomacy show poor leadership qualities. Nigerians must remember this when choosing their leaders. In contrast, APC consistently demonstrates political maturity, which is essential for governance.
