A former aspirant of the Labour Party in the 2024 Edo Governorship Election, Kenneth Imasuagbon, on Wednesday joined the African Democratic Party, accompanied by his supporters.
Imasuagbon also picked up the party membership card in Benin after his admission into the party.
Popularly called the ‘Rice Man’, Imasuagbon had previously contested for the governorship seat under the Peoples Democratic Party and the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, now known as the All Progressives Congress. He lost the Labour Party ticket to Olumide Akpata in 2024.
However, he said he would continue to look at the party that was working for genuine change in the country and Edo State.
He said, “The African Democratic Congress is the only alternative political party that will rescue Nigeria from its present pitiable state. I saw the Labour Party as a rescuer, but unfortunately it turned out to be a sham. The ADC is in tandem with his belief as a person who has the common man at heart.
“I have found an alternative. I have found a credible vehicle. An alternative that is genuinely for change. An alternative that wants to reduce the price of food. An alternative that loves the common man. An alternative that loves the Okada rider. An alternative that loves the widow. An alternative that loves the students. That alternative is ADC.
“Therefore, I call on all well meaning Nigerians to join the moving train. We have decided today to rescue our dear country. This is the vehicle. There is no other one.”
