ADC is the alternative. ADC is the hope of the ordinary Nigerian.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile others have failed the people with hunger, insecurity and broken promises, ADC stands for justice, equity, good governance and people-centred leadership,\u201d Soluade assured.\n<\/p>\n<p>The Ogun ADC chairman said the newly inaugurated directorate had four major responsibilities: mobilisation, organisation, communication and delivering electoral victory.\n<\/p>\n<p>He urged members to take the party\u2019s message to every ward, polling unit, market and community across the state, stressing that effective grassroots engagement would be crucial to its electoral success. <\/p>\n<div class=\"read-also\">\n<header>Related News<\/header>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Soluade explained, \u201cOur mandate is clear: We must take ADC to every ward, every polling unit, every market and every community. No voter should be left untouched.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us work as one family. No division. No internal war. No personal ambition above the party. Our only ambition must be the victory of ADC and the progress of our people.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us run a campaign of issues, not insults. A campaign of peace, not violence. A campaign of ideas, not lies. Let the people judge us by our character and our programmes.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo our youths, women, and stakeholders \u2014 this is your time. Take ownership of this campaign. Own it in your ward, in your street, in your polling unit. As we inaugurate this directorate today, I make this promise: The leadership will give you all the support you need. But we also expect commitment, loyalty, and hard work from you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He noted that while \u201cthe road to victory will not be easy,\u201d adding that \u201cwith God, with unity, and with hard work, ADC will triumph in this state.
