Former Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, has declared that only courageous politicians who prioritise public service over personal interests possess the qualities needed to join the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Tambuwal made the statement on Wednesday while welcoming the immediate past Chairman of Tangaza Local Government Area, Isa Salihu Kalenjeni, into the ADC.
Kalenjeni had resigned from his position and defected from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
He urged politicians who genuinely believe they are working for the people and for God rather than for selfish gain to summon the courage to leave their current parties and openly identify with the ADC, regardless of any pressure or intimidation.
"Anyone who believes that what he is doing is for the people and for the sake of God, not for personal gain, should have the courage to leave any political party and join the ADC,” Tambuwal said.
The former governor accused the APC of intimidating politicians intending to defect to the ADC and attempting to sow division within the opposition party.
He claimed the ruling party now views the ADC as its strongest political threat ahead of future elections.
Tambuwal also criticised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration over the persistent security challenges across the country, noting that many Nigerians have grown disappointed with the APC due to the unending insecurity.
He commended Kalenjeni for defecting without attaching any conditions, describing the move as a significant sacrifice and a true demonstration of commitment to the ADC’s ideals.
