The ADC national chairman, Ralphs Okey Nwosu, said this during the official Launch of Digital Political Academy at ADC Global Campus in Abuja yesterday.

Farotimi’s arrest for alleged defamation has elicited widespread condemnation from the society.

Reacting also, Okey Nwosu, at the event yesterday, said “I am sure you are aware of the arrest of Dele Farotimi. I call on the federal authorities to ensure the safety and wellbeing of this honourable gentleman.

“As members of a disciplinal party ADC, we call for his immediate release and also ask the authorities to call their operatives to order. Institutions are being desecrated; Citizen Right are being trampled upon. All this must Stop,” he said.

The ADC chairman said the state of the nation, worsening economy and security situation under the APC should challenge all opposition parties.

Okey Nwosu however added that the signal from the Edo and Ondo elections and the human right abuse, show the weakness of the opposition.

“The weakness of the opposition threatens our democracy, the nation, and expose our citizens to great harm. For the many families who cannot feed and poverty ravished, for our unemployed graduates, the opposition must stand up to be counted.

“Our Party ADC and the PRP are committed to building a virile opposition and are standing firm together on Justice.

“We must not allow the chaos to override our stelar character as a transformation, innovation and value-driven political party. I am therefore honoured to stand before you today to announce the launch of our Digital Political Academy.

“This innovative initiative is designed to foster a more informed and engaged citizenry, equipped with the knowledge and critical thinking skills necessary to drive positive change in our society.”

He however said the Digital Political Academy is dedicated to creating awareness and promoting enlightenment among both incoming politicians and the general public.

“Our mission is to empower citizens with the tools and resources necessary to interrogate policies, hold politicians accountable, and make informed decisions at the polls.

“Through our academy, we will offer various programs and resources, including civic education, leadership development, policy analysis, and voter awareness. We believe that by leveraging technology and innovative teaching methods, we can increase political awareness, promote civic engagement, and ultimately contribute to a more informed and active citizenry.

“To demonstrate our commitment to this mission, we have prepared a video showcasing our vision for the Digital Political Academy. This video highlights the importance of civic education, leadership development, and policy analysis in promoting positive change.

“We invite you to join us as we embark on this exciting journey. Together, we can create a more informed, engaged, and active citizenry, equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to drive positive change in our society.”
