- ADC’s National Chairman, Dr. Ralph Nwosu, pledges to address maladministration in Kogi State if Leke Abejide, the party’s candidate, is elected as governor
- Abejide’s agenda includes transforming Kogi into a super confluence hub focusing on infrastructure, education, agriculture, and industry while empowering youths and creating a safe environment for development and opportunities
Ahead of the November 11 governorship election in Kogi State, Dr. Ralph Nwosu, National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), said the party will address the maladministration of the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration in the state if the party’s candidate, Leke Abejide, is elected.
Nwosu stated this in Abuja during a visit by the Coalition of Kogi Youths and Students, who declared their support for Abejide, saying that the ADC candidate has demonstrated his capacity to deliver through his track record as a two-term reps member.
Nwosu said;
Hon Abejide’s theme is clear, making Kogi a super confluence hub and number one in infrastructure, education, agriculture and industry.
He is ready to empower the youths and create opportunities and the enabling environment to make the streets, roads and farmlands safe in Kogi for unprecedented transformation, he said.
The national chairman also said the people of Kogi have been sensitised to accept equity as the pathway to creating enormous possibilities and development opportunities for the state and indigenes to thrive.
The fact that the insensitivity of current and past governments halted development and created large-scale unemployment and youth restiveness, which have resulted in the chaos of kidnapping, political thuggery and gangsterism, assassinations and general insecurity is clearly manifest. The confluence equity thrust will address this and create empowerment opportunities for all Kogites.
Comrade David Amanah, Chairman of Kogi Youths and Students, said they came to the ADC headquarters to support Abejide’s ambition, insisting that the candidate is a man of his words and someone who has been tested and trusted.
