The former Edo governorship aspirant under the platform of the Labour Party (LP), Barr. Kenneth Imasuagbon, on Wednesday officially joined the African Democratic Party (ADC) in Edo State, saying the party is an alternative that is genuinely for change and poised to take Nigerians to Eldorado.

Speaking to newsmen in Benin after obtaining his membership card, Imasuagbon said he is joining the ADC because it is the only credible alternative that will be a genuine change in the country.

He said, “Nobody can come from anywhere to rescue Nigeria. It is Nigerians that will rescue themselves. I am joining the ADC because I am tired of hunger. It is no longer hunger but starvation.”

Imasuagbon noted that he can’t be a part of a system where those in charge can’t ensure good governance, lamenting a high exchange rate among other alleged failures of the APC-led government.

Imasuagbon added that by joining the ADC, he is ready to lead the battle for change and good governance, create employment for youths, provide good education, and security, among others.

“For me, I have an alternative now that is genuinely for change—alternatives that want to reduce food prices, love the common man, widows, and students. That alternative is ADC.

“I moved from the Labour Party to the ADC because it is in line with my principle and aspirations of good governance.

“Nigerians should not entertain fear and should join the ADC because it is the only vehicle for Nigeria to reach the promised land. Nobody can repair Nigeria other than Nigerians.

“People are saying why am I moving from one party to the other. I am tired of the killings, insecurity, poverty, and the high cost of living,” he stated.

He also blamed the APC-led government for its inability to tackle the rising insecurity in the country, especially in Benue and other states.

The legal luminary said those who are peddling the rumour that the ADC is planning to disrupt the government of the day are only trying to diminish the aims and objectives of the coalition, which is to rescue Nigerians.

Imasuagbon stated that those joining the ADC are people who detest bad governance and have vowed to rescue the country from collapsing.

“Before 2027, it would be glaring that the ruling party should pack and leave. We are going to witness massive decamping from other parties to ADC,” Imasuagbon said.
