They do not care which party logo you wave. They want us fighting each other so we never notice the real game being played against all of us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ameh cautioned that what might appear to be a victory for one faction today could become a tool against another political group tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBefore anyone starts dancing, remember: today\u2019s victory for one camp is tomorrow\u2019s weapon against another. The same forces that can erase one candidate or one leadership structure can just as easily turn on yours when it becomes convenient. Political affiliation is not a shield,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added: \u201cStay alert. This is not a win for any side. It is a warning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The NDC candidate urged opposition parties to channel their energy towards demanding free, fair and credible elections, rather than engaging in disputes over political leadership and candidacies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also criticised the APC-led administration, accusing it of failing to deliver good governance to Nigerians over the past 11 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor 11 years, this APC government has failed to provide good governance to Nigerians. We must collectively work to bring an end to its rule. APC is the problem,\u201d Ameh declared.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/11\/atiku-verdict-apc-wants-opposition-fighting-ameh\/\">Atiku Verdict: APC wants opposition fighting \u2013 Ameh<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <\/p>\n<div class=\"nSourse\">Vanguard News<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By John Alechenu ABUJA \u2014 High Chief Peter Ameh, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) senatorial candidate for Kogi East, has warned opposition parties against celebrating the court judgment that sacked&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10541,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10540","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10540","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10540"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10540\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10541"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10540"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10540"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10540"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
