The National Leader of the Peoples Redemption Party, PRP, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has said no member of the opposition party sleeps with its two eyes closed.

Baba-Ahmed, a former aide to President Bola Tinubu said only members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, sleep with their two eyes closed.

He spoke against the backdrop of the Federal High Court judgment in Lokoja, Kogi State, which deregistered the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC.

The court had set aside its earlier judgment directing the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to register the NDC as a political party.

The judgement was sequel to an application by the Peace Movement Party, PMP, which asked that the December 2025 judgment be set aside because it was not joined in the suit.

In his judgment, Justice Isah Dashen declared that all relevant parties must be heard before any substantive decision can be made in the matter.

Reacting in an interview on TRUST BASE NEWS’s Politics Today, Baba-Ahmed said: “I don’t think any party in the opposition sleeps with both eyes, every party except APC.

“It is very unnerving what happened in court Today with the NDC. Any party that tells you they are comfortable, then they are not serious about being a political party in Nigeria.”
