The Allied Conservative Congress (ACC) yesterday said Nigerians need compassionate leaders with the milk of human kindness and conservative ideology.
The party stated this while commending Nigerians on the occasion of this year’s Democracy Day and 25 years of uninterrupted democracy.
The party said June 12 is a testament of Nigerians faith in democracy and resolve to consolidate, deepen and strengthen it.
The national secretary of ACC, Alhaji Lawal Mohammed, in a statement, said it is also an eloquent testimony of credible elections and citizens’ resolve to resist anti-democratic forces, adding that the democratic flames which June 12 lighted must glow and shine brighter in the nation’s democratic space.
ACC however saluted Nigerians for their resilience in sustaining democratic ideals, ethics and ethos despite numerous challenges facing the nation due to inept leadership, saying that Nigerians’ confidence in constitutional rule is unshaken and that Nigerians must make our democracy work for the good of the masses.
The statement reads in part, “The state of the nation is bad. Governments at all levels have abandoned their constitutional duties and allowed the ship of the nation to cruise on a perilous course of terrorism, economic stagnation, ethnic tensions, corruption and clueless leadership. There is hunger in the land and confusion in governance. It is a trying period as the nation gropes in the dark.
“It is in view of this that the Allied Conservative Congress was recently formed as a rallying platform for all democrats desirous to rescue Nigeria from its dangerous slide to anarchy and bloodshed by non-state actors, and rebuild the nation with conservative ideology of integrity, morality, probity, equity, unity, security and prosperity. This is our chance to make Nigeria great again and restore genuine democracy.
“ACC identifies with the masses in this difficult period of our nationhood and assures of a brighter future. The movement urges Nigerians to be hopeful and prayerful as we collectively hold governments at all levels accountable.”
It expressed optimism “that our political movement will soon be registered by the Independent National Electoral Commission as a political party with conservative ideology that will provide Godly leadership, create wealth, revive economy, ensure political stability, foster unity and development essential in restoring the nation’s glory, security and prosperity.”
It urged Nigerians to join ACC and contribute in building a new and better democratic society.
“ACC will participate in the 2027 general election and field credible, competent and visionary candidates who will turnaround insecurity, economic recession, political upheavals, unemployment and hardship in the country. Nigerians need compassionate leaders with the milk of human kindness and conservative ideology. ACC is the solution to Nigeria’s long national nightmare and multifarious challenges that have impeded the nation’s democratic journey,” it added.
