Peter Obi, Faith and him Common Sense — By Fada Oluoma

Mr. Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the last election, has declared support for the adoption of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as the official political vehicle for the opposition coalition ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The former governor of Anambra State stressed that the coalition’s guiding principle would be to always put Nigerians first, adding that the decision to back the ADC was rooted in a shared commitment to deliver competent, compassionate, and people-focused leadership.

He said this in a statement obtained by Diaspora Digital Media on Thursday.

According to Obi, no one group can change Nigeria alone, therefore, to dismantle the structures that keep the people in poverty and insecurity, coalition must build bridges, not walls even when those bridges are uneasy.

The statement reads: “Yesterday, the coalition members formally adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) for the 2027 Nigeria General Elections with Distinguished Senator David Mark serving as the National Chairman and H.E. Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola serving as the National Secretary.

“Our commitment is to sacrifice and work together towards the 2027 General Elections, ensuring that Nigeria gets a competent, capable, and compassionate leadership that will prioritise the nation’s future by putting the welfare of Nigerians first.

“This decision was not made lightly. It comes from deep reflection on where we are as a country and what must be done to move forward.

“No one group can change Nigeria alone. To dismantle the structures that keep our people in poverty and insecurity, we must build bridges, not walls even when those bridges are uneasy.”
