RESTORING TRUST BETWEEN OFFICE HOLDERS AND PARTY STRUCTURES

By Shuaib Babatunde Adebayo (Optimistic) In the current political space, a concerning situation has continued to unfold, particularly among office holders. Many office holders after assuming office, tend to build and operate with a separate group of loyalists loyal to them personally rather than to the political party that brought them into power.
