And, INEC has demonstrated patriotic impartiality by regularising the leadership of ADC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I can tell you that the coalition of patriotic opposition politicians would gather in Anambra to begin the journey of national rescue,\u201d the ADC standard bearer stated.<\/p>\n<p>Nwosu dismissed claims in some quarters that the electoral umpire was merely playing a script to set up ADC for judicial destruction, saying that conspiracy theories do not have a place in the exercise of democratic rights and responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>He stated: \u201cThere is no hidden agenda. ADC has come to be; all necessary documentation has been done, and the commission has done what it should.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVoters now have a credible alternative to the old spoilt platforms that have been taking the masses for a ride.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn November 8, Anambra people will have room enough to exercise their franchise and elect their governor, a servant leader and not arrogant mischief makers and opportunists.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis thing that INEC has done will force all political parties to pursue campaigns based on issues that are relevant to the people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
