Every ADC Member Not Saint – Dino Melaye

Senator Dino Melaye, a former senator from Kogi state has revealed that not every member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition is a saint. 

The former PDP politician, who recently joined the ADC, speaking further urged Nigerians to see the coalition party as an altar of God that has come to rescue Nigerians from the clutches of the APC. 

Dino Melaye revealed this yesterday evening why speaking on the Channels TV Politics Today edition. 

The former Senator said, “Why Nigerians should think differently about the ADC is that once there’s an altar call in the church of God only those who are emotionally affected, have conscience, and are ready to leave darkness and move into light respond. So, ADC is a national altar call.

“Not everybody in ADC is a saint, but what I’m telling you is that everybody who moved into ADC is concerned about Nigeria. 

"We want to see a Nigeria where we’ll be able to answer questions from our grandchildren who will ask us, when we’re 90 and toothless: ‘When Nigeria was being destroyed, Grandpa, what did you do?’ We want to be able to say we did A, B, C, and D.” 

While speaking on the ADC coalition candidate for the 2027 Presidency, he revealed that the party will be very straightforward and impartial in picking its candidate. 

He said, "Those of us in the ADC need to create a comfortable, stable platform. And I believe that platform will produce a candidate that will unseat President Ahmed Bola Tinubu in 2027.

“But I have made it a point of duty that I will not be talking about a presidential candidate or aspirant or preference for anybody until we get the party completely stabilised and organise a transparent convention that will produce a presidential candidate of the ADC who, by the grace of God, will kick.”
