Buba Galadima is a top leader in the African Democratic Congress has given a strong and passionate speech at the party’s National Convention held today at the Rainbow Event Centre in Abuja.
While speaking to the crowd he said that the Tinubu government has destroyed the main opposition parties like PDP LP and NNPP. Now the same government wants to destroy ADC too. But even if only one person or a corpse remains in the race in 2027 that person or corpse would still defeat President Bola Tinubu in the election. He used clear everyday words to show how unhappy many Nigerians feel with the government right now.
Galadima talked with a lot of energy waving his hands and pointing as he spoke. He pointed out the tough times people are facing, like high prices for food and fuel, rising insecurity and problems with how the country is being run. He believes these issues have made so many people angry that any real challenger from the opposition would easily win if the vote were fair. The African Democratic Congress is working hard to bring different groups together to form a strong team against the ruling party ahead of the next election.
His words spread fast online and started big arguments. Some people cheered him for speaking what they see as the plain truth while others called it just tough talk from a politician. The whole National Convention was full of talks about joining forces and planning ways to win power in 2027 making it clear that the race is already heating up.
Meanwhile, before the National Convention could start the government denied the party access to the popular Eagle Square venue. The party then moved to the Rainbow Event Centre after paying all the fees and setting everything up. But the owner of the Rainbow Event Centre later told the ADC that he was under heavy pressure from the FCDA and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory. They threatened to revoke his license if he allowed the ADC to hold the convention there. Despite this pressure and intimidation, the ADC went ahead with the National Convention as planned.
