ADC Candidate Says INEC’s Recognition Of Mark Leadership Turning Point For Anambra
Mr John Chuma Nwosu, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) gubernatorial contender in Anambra has welcomed the recognition of Sen. David Mark-led National Working Committee of the party by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Nwosu who reacted on Friday said the prompt recognition of the ADC’s national leadership came as a major democratic gesture for Anambra electorate who were searching for a credible alternative.
Nwosu recalled that Anambra State voters found themselves in a similar political circumstance in 2003, when the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its leadership grew wanton with impunity as the only platform.
He said the recognition of ADC leadership would make political parties become and to pursue campaigns based on issues which were relevant to the people.
“If you recall, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) appeared as the alternative, and the Anambra people embraced the party with both hands. Now, 24 years down the line, the same APGA has become inebriated with power and has started treating the people with disdain.
“But God has remembered Anambra again, INEC has demonstrated patriotic impartiality by regularising the leadership of ADC.
“So, I can tell you that the coalition of patriotic opposition politicians would gather in Anambra to begin the journey of national rescue,” he said.
Nwosu dismissed insinuation that INEC was merely playing a script to set up ADC for judicial destruction, saying that conspiracy theories do not have a place in the exercise of democratic rights and responsibilities.
He called on Anambra electorate to vote ADC as his SHEEEMS Agenda resonated with the needs of the people at this point in time adding that his strategy for curbing insecurity remained foolproof with its technological reinforcement.
According to him, there is no hidden agenda, the ADC has come to be, all necessary documentation has been done, and the commission has done what it should.
“Voters now have a credible alternative to the old spoilt platforms that have been taking the masses for a ride.
“On Nov. 8, Anambra people will have room enough to exercise their franchise and elect their governor, a servant leader and not arrogant mischief makers an
d opportunists,” he said.
