Senator Dino Melaye has attributed the growing support for the African Democratic Congress to widespread public dissatisfaction with hunger, insecurity, and what he described as broken promises by the ruling All Progressives Congress.
Speaking in Lokoja following the suspension of the unveiling of ADC’s Kogi State chapter, which was scheduled to take place at Kefas Multi-purpose Hall, Melaye described the ADC as the “credible alternative” Nigerians have been seeking.
His words: “Nigerians are tired of managing incompetent government. Nigerians are tired of excuses of government over insecurity. It is time to kill hunger and insecurity before they kill us.”
Despite the cancellation of the event, Melaye said the level of turnout was a strong signal of the party’s growing appeal.
He stated: “The turnout you see today is just the introduction. After this moment of mourning of our late president Buhari, we will return to formally unveil ADC in Kogi state.
“Even the handwriting on the wall is clear to the blind that the days of APC in political governance in Nigeria is over. The party to liberate Nigerians is here. ADC is the answer. Just keep watching.”
The rally was postponed to observe a period of mourning for former President Muhammadu Buhari, whose death was confirmed on Sunday.
