Presidential Candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in 2023 general election Dumebi Kachikwu has accused coalition promoters of bribing state chairmen of the party with N20m
He said the ADC party was not for sale contrary to believes by the coalition promoters.
He stated this while reacting to what he described as propaganda by these agents of destabilisation masquerading as a political coalition.
He said the supposed coalition was just a mere “a gang unable to survive outside political office seeking to hijack the ADC as a means to revive their personal economies. They are truly on a rescue mission, but it is a mission to rescue themselves from the harsh economic realities which they themselves created for our nation,”.
“They are offering some of the state chairmen as much as N20,000,000 to resign their positions which goes to show that their intentions are not honourable.
“My question to this gang is this, if you succeed in paying off all the ADC party officials at state and local government levels to resign, what next? Our constitution still doesn’t allow you assume those offices. This is the plain and simple truth. Your money will get you nowhere in the ADC,”.
“If you have to build your rescue mission on fraudulent misrepresentation, it just shows who you really are,”.
He stated further “I want to reiterate that the ADC is not for sale and is not an old people’s home. We are a party that believes Nigeria needs fresh faces, fresh ideals and fresh ideas. This current political war is the war of the old for the old; it is not our fight”.
