Black Alliance for Peace Stands in Solidarity with
The People's Alternative Political Movement
The Africa Team of the Black Alliance for Peace issued the following statement addressing the Political Summit 2022 of the The People's Alternative Political Movement
The Black Alliance for Peace and the U.S. Out of Africa Network express our deepest solidarity with the The People's Alternative Political Movement (TPAP-M) as you hold your 2022 Political Summit as part of a broader effort to establish a Mass Workers Party for the Socialist Transformation of Nigeria.
The struggles of the organized working people are central to the attainment of independence, termination of military rule and the ongoing struggles to deepen democratic participation and consolidation. We have a duty as working people to be part of the struggle, and BAP identifies the Black working class as the main social force of any reconstituted Black Liberation project.
We stand with you, TPAP-M in your call to #ResistHardship as the rising level of hardship and inhumane exploitation in Nigeria in particular and Africa in general are clear indicators of the urgency for organized, coordinated and collective political intervention of the left movement and allied radical progressive social forces.
We are encouraged by TPAP-M’s efforts to restate longstanding solutions that will reinstate ownership of Nigeria to the masses and address the root of the issues, which have persisted in the country too long.
The people of Nigeria, the majority of who are in the oppressed classes, want every Nigerian to be; guaranteed security of life; food, water, electricity, decent housing, health care, education, safe transportation, and living wage employment. TPAP-M’s efforts to guarantee these needs are consistent with BAP’s work to ensure People(s)-Centered Human Rights (PCHRs).
We stand in full solidarity with you as you work to mobilize the working masses of Nigeria towards political empowerment, and ending economic and social repression and imperialist domination.
Imperialist Hands off Africa!
Africa unite!
No compromise! No retreat!
