Adamu Garba To APC: New Party Won Lesotho, Don't Underestimate Obidients

 A former presidential aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adamu Garba has warned his party not to underrate the Labour Party (LP) and his supporters in the 2023 presidential election.


Garba said this on Wednesday via his verified Twitter handle in a reaction to Lesotho’s new party, Revolution for Prosperity (RFP) that won majority seats in the parliamentary election in the South African country.

The new party, RFP was formed six months ago by a 64-year-old Lesotho businessman Sam Matekane and it defeated two major old parties in the country.

RFP won 56 out of 120 seats in parliament according to final results published by the Lesotho Independent Electoral Commission (LIEC) on Monday.

The current ruling party All Basotho Convention (ABC), which has governed the country of 2.14 million people since 2017 did not win a single seat.
Reuters reported that the main opposition, the Democratic Congress (DC) also performed woefully coming a distant second to RFP in the race.

However, LIEC said RFP only fell short of winning an outright majority by a mere five seats in the 61-seat parliament and will now have to find a coalition partner to form a government

Reacting to the RFP’s emergence and victory, Garba said Lesotho’s youths contributed to the victory of the new party, adding that APC must devise tactical campaign techniques to win next year’s election in the centre.

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns.
