The African Democratic Congress has received a major boost in Kaduna State following the defection of 501 new members from Dutsen Abba Ward in Zaria Local Government Area and the formal opening of the party’s local government secretariat.
The event, which marked a fresh push in the party’s grassroots expansion, drew party leaders, stakeholders and supporters from different parts of the area.
Addressing the gathering, the ADC State Chairman, Hon. Ahmad Tijjani Mustapha, described the mass defection as a strong sign of growing confidence in the party’s ideals and leadership.
He said the large turnout reflected the ADC’s commitment to people-focused politics and its determination to respond to the needs and aspirations of citizens at the grassroots level.
“This level of acceptance shows that our message is resonating with the people. ADC is determined to provide credible leadership and serve the interests of the masses,” Mustapha said.
The event, which ended peacefully, witnessed enthusiastic expressions of loyalty from the new members, who pledged their commitment to the growth and success of the party in Zaria and beyond.
Also speaking, the State Ex-Officio I and Director of Communication, Hon. Alkasim Abdulsalam, commended the State Chairman, State Secretary and other stakeholders for their strategic leadership, noting that their collective efforts were responsible for the party’s steady growth in the state.
He particularly lauded the Zaria Local Government Area Chairman for his vision, dedication and relentless drive, which culminated in the establishment of the ADC office in the area.
In her remarks, the State Woman Leader, Mrs Joy Sim Gamba, described the opening of the Zaria LGA office as a major milestone in strengthening the party’s grassroots presence.
She praised the Zaria LGA leadership for its commitment, noting that the development signalled a renewed push to mobilise and reposition the party for future electoral success.
