The Conference of Nigerian Political Parties, CNPP, has described the crisis rocking the ruling People's Democratic Party, PDP, "as God's divine intervention to liberate the ordinary Nigerian from years of deprivation, repression and maladministration by a class that has held Nigerians captive."
.
The Benue State chairman of CNPP, Baba Agan, who spoke to Vanguard, yesterday, in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, said "what we are seeing in the acclaimed biggest party in Africa is a clear indication that it is only God that rules in the affairs of men.
.
Nigerians are suffering in the midst of plenty and those ruling us have not taken it upon themselves to assiduously address these pains the people are living with.
.
"We daily hear of so much money coming into the country, yet it has not translated to a better condition of living for the ordinary man in the streets and you think God is happy?
.
"We are not saying that those leading the revolt within the party are better but the laud celebration that greeted their action from Nigerians clearly shows that the people are happy with the steps they have taken.
.
"Nigerians are going through suffocating hardship and our leaders are living in affluence without regards for the feelings of the people, but with this development there could be respite at the end of the day.
