A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has told President Bola Tinubu to forget coming back to the Presidential Villa after the 2027 election.
Eze, an erstwhile National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party, nPDP, hailed former Vice President and ex-presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar; presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in the 2023 general election, Peter Obi; former Governor of Rivers State and ex-Transportation Minister, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi; former Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai; former Senate President, David Mark; Dr. Umar Ardo, and others, on their resolve to come together and form an alliance ahead of 2027.
DAILY POST reported that Chief Akin Ricketts, Protem National Chairman, and Abdullahi Elayo, Protem National Secretary, had in a jointly signed letter addressed to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, applied to register All Democratic Party, ADA, as a political party.
The group informed INEC that the application was sequel to the decision taken by the Nigerian National Coalition Group to sponsor the association for full registration as a political association.
Eze, a member of the APC Legacy Media Team, in a statement on Monday, said, “May I therefore on behalf of myself and family congratulate both Atiku Abubakar, Amaechi, Peter Obi, Umar Ardo, David Mark, Nasir El-Rufai and all those that made this mission to salvage our dear nation from the hands of scavengers possible.
“I commend all of you for your foresight, proactiveness, optimism, commitment and patriotism in a bid to wrestle power from the hands of despots, nepotists, selfish and anti-democratic forces, who have plunged our dear nation into a land of bloodletting, kidnapping, misery, abject poverty, devastating hunger and made Nigeria a laughing stock before the international community.
“Once again, as prominent Nigerians, and a group of cerebral, enigmatic, influential, visionary and grassroots politicians, you have proven that you all are not only born tactical politicians, but a group of caring, patriotic, eminent and grassroots-oriented leaders who are touched with the present sordid state of our nation.
“God will surely answer our collective prayers in our drive to salvage and liberate this country from the hands of misguided leaders, misfits, autocrats, most clueless, insensitive and demented undemocratic forces, who are riding rough-shod over the common patrimony of Nigerians.
“Finally, President Tinubu can now start packing his luggages for his much-anticipated movement back to his Bourdillon Home after all the colossal damages he has committed against our democracy and economy due to his abysmal performance within 2 years of stolen mandate as a President.”
