FCT, Abuja – The coordinator of the Citizens Coalition, Kelly Agaba, said the ADC is a collection of gladiators united by a shared purpose and vision for the country ahead of the 2027 election.
Agaba said the Atiku Abubakar-led coalition has found common ground to unite politicians from various political backgrounds and ideologies.
The political analyst said the Atiku-led coalition is working on remodeling the ADC’s ideology to fit the complexities of the country.
He stated this during an exclusive interview with TheTalk.NG on Saturday, July 5, 2025.
“The coalition is a coming together of diverse individuals from various political backgrounds and ideologies, united by a shared vision of national redemption. As the Bible says, ‘Can two walk together, except they be agreed?’ (Amos 3:3). The coalition has found common ground in the desire to rescue Nigeria from the shackles of prejudice and economic terrorism. The team of strategic think-tanks is remodeling the ADC’s ideology to fit the complexities of the nation, ensuring its people-centric and progress-inclined.”
Agaba said the ADC coalition is not afraid to challenge the status quo and fight for the rights of Nigerians.
He said the ADC coalition has shown that it believes in a Nigeria where everyone has access to opportunities and resources.
The public affairs analyst said the ADC coalition is not a combination of power grabbers or mongers.
He described the group of people led by the interim national chairman, former Senate President, as driven by a desire to redeem Nigeria.
“The interim national chairman is a seasoned strategist who knows how to navigate the complexities of our political system.”
