Super Nigeria possible — ADC
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) says a super Nigeria is possible if the country’s youths wake up to leadership challenges with renewed national consciousness.
The National Chairman of the party, Chief Ralph Nwosu, made the remark at a forum organised by the Nigerian Youths Home and Diaspora Electoral College Institution on Saturday in Lagos.
Nwosu, who was represented by Peter Ede, ADC National Vice President (North Central), said that an awesome and excellent Nigeria was possible with the reawakening of national consciousness and inclusiveness.
“Our mentality needs a to change, our orientation needs to change. We must build the people’s minds. A super Nigeria is very possible because we are unique people.
“It is now left for Nigeria to have national consciousness. To make Nigeria super, Nigerian youths now need to look deeply into themselves and take possession the country and create a better tomorrow.
“A super Nigeria is possible. ADC is out to run an inclusive government and that is what Nigeria needs now,” he said.
Nwosu said that the ADC was a youth compliant organisation, saying that the party was proud to be associated with the youth group.
According to him, the ADC remains a credible third force political party, having won some seats in the 2019 general elections.
He said that party was dominated by great people of integrity, discipline, honour and intellect that would take over the leadership of the country come 2023.
He urged the youths to learn to cut cost of governance and manage diversity, saying that the nation’s strength was in its diversity and not in secession.
Speaking, Chief Vincent Ubani, Head, Nigerian Youths Home and Diaspora Electoral College Panel Committee and Initiator Nigerian Youths Home and Diaspora Electoral College Institution (NYHDECI), urged youths to resist whatever could destabilise the nation.
Ubani, a 2019 governorship candidate of African Action Congress (AAC) in Abia, said, “It is time for the youth to take over leadership but to do so, we must come together to get involved in politics.”
He said that the group had adopted ADC as credible alternative for youths to run for elections in Nigeria to ensure brighter future for the nation.
Ubani presented to the party the Certificate of Return as the winner of the 2021 Youth Takeover Leadership Electoral College Committee on behalf of the Coalition.
He said that the coalition would also call for a national youth summit and young party candidates national convention before the 2023 general elections.
In his remarks, Maurice Ebam, ADC National Youth Leader, urged Nigerian youths to unite in their strength as ADC remained a credible alternative to create a progressive Nigeria of the Youths’ dream.
