Ahead of 2027 general elections, the zonal Chairman of African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Enugu North Senatorial zone, Rt. Hon Prince Kingsley Acharabagu has described ADC as the best option to choose in 2027 general elections by the people of Enugu North Senatorial zone in Enugu State also known as Nsukka cultural zone.
Speaking to journalists on a number of issues surrounding party politics and 2027 presidential election as they might affect Nsukka zone, the zonal Chairman who is a one time councilor said in his opinion that the political future of Nsukka zone with the largest population in Enugu lies in a new mega political party like ADC.
According to him, ADC will come up with good plan for the development of Nsukka zone.
Buttressing his point, the ex-councilor who represented Umunko ward in Igboetiti Local Government legislative council argued that the past and current administration put together have failed to take Nsukka zone where it is supposed to belong, noting that Nsukka’s potential as the largest Senatorial zone in Enugu State remains in chain owing to government neglect
He added: “Imagine that even as the largest Senatorial zone in Enugu State Nsukka is yet to produce a Federal Minister since the return of democracy in 1999. So going by my experience in politics cutting across many years, I have the vision that ADC will take Nsukka zone to greater height with the caliber of the people in the party and considering the fact that the party has the prospects of producing the next President of Nigeria from South-East geopolitical zone in 2027.
“What I am saying is that the people of Nsukka zone should take the direction of ADC because that is the best option available to us. I am quite sure that an ADC administration under a President from the South-East will provide us the opportunity to use our potential as the largest Senatorial zone in Enugu State.”
The ex-councilor repeatedly called on all people of Nsukka Senatorial zone who are of voting age to enroll into ADC in their respective wards and also called on those of voting age that are yet to obtain the Permanent Voter Card (PVC) to endeavor to obtain the PVC ahead of the elections.
