..CUPP RELEASES PROPOSED NEW CLAUSES TO CURE THE DEFECTS IN THE NEW
CAMA AMENDMENT.
… CUPP SAYS WE DO NOT JUST CRITICIZE, WE OFFER SOLUTIONS AFTER CRITICISM
In an innovative approach, the Opposition Coalition(CUPP) have released
proposed new clauses to cure the grave defects of the controversial
Companies and Allied Matters Act, 2020 that has pitched government
against religious Institutions.
This release is sequel to the new partnership the coalition has forged
with opposition lawmakers led by Hon. Kingsley Chinda. The new
partnership is to ensure that the ruling APC does not continue to take
undue advantage of its majority in the National Assembly to make laws
that will breed suspicion, mistrust, division and even anarchy in the
nation. This new relationship will also afford both parties provide
mutual support for each other for the overall benefit of the country.
By this move, the opposition coalition has also shown that it not all
about criticism but that it also provides alternative and indeed better
ideas to that which the present government can provide. The clause by
clause proposal when merged with the opposition lawmakers work,
presented on the floor of the Parliament, adopted by Parliament and
signed into law by the President will cure whatever mischief the
government claims it wants to cure but without causing such uproar as
the present amendment has caused.
Religious institutions are important in the society and actually provide
a moral compass for the people. A situation where religious institutions
stand against the government or religious institutions suspect that
government is against them or targeting them attack is unhealthy and
must be nipped in the bud. Religious leaders must continue to pray for
the government and not pray against them and anything that would lead to
the latter must not be allowed to see the light of the day.
The CUPP believes that this move will bring a positive closure to this
situation and allow for citizens to express their right to freedom of
worship without let or hindrance and express all other constitutionally
guaranteed rights and freedoms.
