The leadership of the Africa Democratic Congress (ADC) has concluded arrangements to form a consensus with 22 opposition parties on how to dislodge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) from power.
National Chairman of the party, Chief Ralph Nwosu disclosed this at a news Conference held at the ADC global campus, Abuja.
Stakeholders of the party who were at the meeting included members of National Working Committee (NWC) and the Board of Trustees (BoT) as well as other leaders of the party. Nwosu stressed that the nation certainly needs a new beginning.
“Pointing fingers of recrimination is not what transformational leaders do,” he said, adding that 22 political parties have joined hands with the ADC to build a new mega party.
While stating that the doors of the merging parties remain open, the ADC chairman however added that the new platform will give accommodation to all well-meaning patriots in the country.
According to him: “We have resolved to work with all political leaders across that appreciate the need for coming together for a new Nigeria. We discriminate against none; our commitment is a new Nigeria that will lead our dear continent out of its present abyss.”
Nwosu also reeled out the catalogue of failure of the Bola Tinubu-led regime scoring it low in all ramifications.
He blamed the current government for lacking clear ideas of how to move the country forward, saying the system of handing palliative to the people to cushion their poverty was untenable.
He said: “The state of the nation is nothing to talk about. It is saddening and arouses morbid fear. Therefore, instead of wasting our time engaging in futile debates with those in government, we should continue to strategize on ways to develop a new political system and come together to create a collaborative, value-driven ecosystem that prioritizes our people and country.”
