In a bold and impassioned declaration, Hon. Joseph Enan Maigari has publicly endorsed Dr. Moses Paul (PhD) as the African Democratic Congress (ADC) Coalition’s candidate for the upcoming Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) chairmanship election.
Maigari, a respected voice in civic advocacy, described Dr. Paul as a “man of vision, integrity, and resilience,” emphasizing that his candidacy represents a break from the transactional politics that have plagued local governance. “AMAC deserves a leadership that cannot be bought or bullied,” Maigari stated, calling on residents to rally behind a candidate who prioritizes public service over personal gain.
Dr. Moses Paul, popularly known as DrMo, has gained traction for his outspoken stance against vote-buying and political thuggery. In a recent statement, he warned that “every vote sold is a bullet fired at the future,” urging citizens to resist inducements and vote with conscience.
Maigari’s endorsement highlighted Dr. Paul’s commitment to tackling AMAC’s waste management crisis, empowering youth, and driving digital revenue innovation. He praised Paul’s long-term vision for infrastructure development, including schools, hospitals, and water projects, describing it as “planting trees under whose shade he may never sit.”
The ADC Coalition, which has emerged as a platform for reform-minded politicians, is positioning Dr. Paul as a transformative figure capable of restoring dignity to local governance in the Federal Capital Territory.
“This is not just rhetoric; it is a covenant with the people of AMAC,” Maigari declared. “Supporting Dr. Moses Paul is consistent with our mission to birth a new Nigeria one built on justice, accountability, and service.”
As the 2026 AMAC election approaches, political observers say the endorsement could galvanize grassroots support and reshape the narrative around leadership in Nigeria’s capital.
