CUPP Backs Reps Minority Caucus, Urges Tinubu to Lead Effectively or Step Aside

The Conference of United Political Parties (CUPP) has thrown its weight behind the House of Representatives Minority Caucus’ call on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to either demonstrate effective leadership or resign from office, citing worsening insecurity, economic hardship, and the declining welfare of Nigerians.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday, CUPP Acting National Chairman, Chief Peter Ameh, said the opposition coalition fully aligns with the position taken by the Minority Caucus and believes the current administration must urgently address the country’s mounting challenges or make way for leaders capable of delivering meaningful results.
According to Ameh, public office is a responsibility that must translate into tangible improvements in the lives of citizens, stressing that elected leaders who fail to deliver good governance should be prepared to leave office.
“In a sane clime, any elected official who refuses to produce results of good governance that will help make the lives of the people better should honourably resign,” Ameh stated.
The CUPP chairman argued that President Tinubu’s administration must immediately step up efforts to tackle insecurity, economic difficulties, and the general hardship confronting millions of Nigerians.
“President Bola Tinubu and his administration must step up immediately to address the pressing issues of insecurity, economic hardship, and the general wellbeing of Nigerians. Leadership is not a right but a responsibility. Where this responsibility is not being discharged effectively, the honourable path is resignation,” he added.
The opposition coalition reaffirmed its commitment to promoting accountability, good governance, and the welfare of Nigerians, while urging the President to take immediate and visible actions to ease the suffering across the country.
CUPP further stated that it would continue to monitor developments closely and would not hesitate to speak out on issues affecting the nation in what it described as the best interest of the Nigerian people.
The statement comes amid growing political debate over the federal government’s handling of security concerns, rising living costs, and broader economic challenges facing the country.
