The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Niger State has announced its support for female political aspirants, encouraging them to run for positions ranging from local government councillorship to seats in the Niger State House of Assembly. This move is part of the party’s commitment to inclusivity, particularly for women and persons with disabilities, who make up a significant portion of the population and play crucial roles in national development.

According to State Chairman Alhaji Musa Hassan, the party is dedicated to addressing the economic challenges facing the country, including worsening insecurity and unemployment. Many Nigerians have been forced to seek alternative means of livelihood, such as operating commercial tricycles and taxis. The ADC is developing policies to transform the nation and tackle these economic challenges.

Hassan criticized the current administration for its inability to resolve persistent issues in the power and education sectors, despite having abundant resources. He emphasized that the ADC has the vision and leadership capacity to drive national transformation if given the mandate in 2027. The party chairman urged citizens to remain hopeful and exercise their democratic rights by obtaining their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) ahead of the elections.

The ADC’s commitment to inclusivity and national development comes as the country prepares for the 2027 elections. With the party’s focus on addressing economic challenges and promoting women’s participation in politics, it is likely to resonate with voters seeking change. As the electoral landscape continues to evolve, the ADC’s efforts to engage citizens and promote democratic participation will be closely watched. The party’s message of hope and transformation is expected to gain traction, especially among Nigerians seeking alternative leadership and a better future.
