A chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Buba Galadima, on Monday described himself as a bad politician.
Galadima explained that he is a politician who tells the truth even when nobody wants to hear it.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Galadima insisted that Nigeria only has usurpers and opportunists.
He said: “There aren’t any politicians in the country, only usurpers in politics, there aren’t politicians, only opportunists in politics.
“I’m a bad one (politician) that is why I have never been a councillor throughout my life despite the struggle.
“My daughter was elected and not appointed, if you are appointed it means that you must have taken salaries which she has never done.
“Even her parting gift where she was a councillor, up till now they refused to give her because she is my daughter.
“In the Nigerian context I’m the worst man, not even a bad man because Nigeria doesn’t like my type.
“I’m somebody who will look you straight in the eyes and tell you what you don’t want to hear but it’s the truth.”
