It’s hard to ignore the suffering that Nigerians have faced under the APC-led government. From rampant insecurity to crippling economic challenges, the narrative has been filled with broken promises and misplaced priorities. Just recently, the President announced a reduction in food prices, but let’s be honest—Nigerians aren’t fooled by this sudden display of concern. If the government genuinely cared, why didn’t they take action like this at the start of their term? With elections looming, it’s clear this is just political posturing—an attempt to win back the trust of the very people whose hopes and lives have been dashed.
The reality is that Nigerians deserve better than a government that negotiates with bandits. These are the same criminals who have caused untold suffering, leaving behind orphans, widows, and grieving families. To engage with such individuals is to dishonor the memory of those innocent lives lost and to further compromise our nation’s security. A government that fails to protect its citizens has fundamentally failed in its most essential duty.
What Nigerians truly crave is capable leadership—leaders who prioritize the needs of the people over their own interests. Our country needs a government that will ensure safety, create sustainable jobs, and provide opportunities for every citizen to flourish. Such leaders are not found within the APC; they are in the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
The ADC stands as a strong opposition, ready to lift Nigeria from the struggles imposed by the APC government. Our vision is grounded in service, inclusivity, and real development. We are dedicated to building a secure, prosperous, and united nation where every citizen’s dignity is honored.
Nigeria deserves so much more, and ADC is the way forward. Together, we will reclaim power from the APC and return it to the people, where it rightfully belongs.
