The governorship candidate called on all Kwarans and Nigerians who desire genuine change to massively support and vote for all ADC candidates from top to bottom in the forthcoming elections.
According to him, the current economic hardship, suffering, and hopelessness imposed on Nigerians under the Tinubu administration can only be reversed through purposeful leadership and people-centered governance.
“Our party stands firmly against godfatherism, political intimidation, and imposed leadership. In ADC, the people remain the center of our democratic process.
“Our members, supporters, and voters are our greatest strength and the premium focus of our attention, as clearly enshrined in democratic principles.
“Together, we shall rescue Kwara State and contribute meaningfully to the rebuilding of Nigeria,” he added.
