The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Lagos State says it will unseat the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 general elections.

Lagos ADC chieftain, Moshood Salvador, spoke on Tuesday after the party’s congresses, declaring readiness to confront the APC at all levels.

According to him, the party has built a solid structure from polling units through wards to local government and state levels.

 “ADC has a complete structure to win across all levels. The work has started, with all executives and party machinery inaugurated.

 “Nobody will ever vote for hunger, nobody will ever vote for poverty, nobody will ever vote for insecurity. 

“There is no doubt APC will find its way out of government in 2027. We have started the work already, and we are out to win,” he said.

Sandra Ogah, secretary of the ADC congress committee, said the party was poised to take over power nationally and in Lagos.

 “In the next election, ADC will take over Nigeria. When ADC takes over Nigeria, the party will take over Lagos.

 “We will deliver the hope Nigerians have long awaited. Nigerians must keep faith alive; a rescue is coming,” Mrs Ogah said.

 She said the party would mobilise effectively, stressing that “all hands must remain on deck” to secure victory.

The party re-elected George Ashiru as Lagos ADC chairman on Saturday through a consensus arrangement.
