Tuesday, November 25, 2025 - The African Democratic Congress has expressed optimism that it will emerge a dominant force in the 2027 general elections, whether or not it has serving governors in its fold.
The party’s National Vice Chairman, Senator Nazif Gamawa,
stated this on Monday during an interaction with journalists in Bauchi.
Gamawa insisted that the absence of a sitting governor in
the ADC would not hinder its chances, recalling that former President Muhammadu
Buhari once defeated an incumbent president without having any governor on his
side.
He said, “The people already believe that a new political
movement is the option, so ADC is the saviour.”
The party chieftain who added that the ADC was not facing
any internal challenges, called on politicians who felt betrayed in their
current parties to join the movement.
According to him, while other political parties have made
aspirants’ nomination forms very expensive, the ADC will not follow the same
path.
“We are not going to be like them. We will give a chance to
every well-meaning Nigerian,” he declared.
Gamawa, who also boasted of over 30 years of political
experience, said his past role as the Deputy National Chairman of the PDP
should repose the confidence in him and other leaders of the party that they
would reposition the ADC for victory.
He also assured that the party would remain fair to the
masses if elected into power.
The ADC chieftain urged eligible voters to obtain their
Permanent Voter Cards and be ready to participate in the forthcoming elections,
insisting that voting is both a right and a responsibility.
He warned that Nigerians would continue to suffer the
consequences of bad leadership if they failed to vote wisely.
Gamawa also lamented that the nation’s politics and
governance had been hijacked by a few individuals, adding that the ADC was
committed to mentoring young people interested in leadership and political
participation.
