“His Excellency, Dr. Musa Rabiu Kwankwaso, I welcome you and millions of your supporters to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).Today, we have come together in unity of purpose, conviction, and vision.
“Your coming to ADC is not merely a political statement, it is a deliberate response to the clarion call by well-meaning Nigerians for all opposition leaders to be united and present a common front to protect our democracy.
“Today marks a defining moment in the history of our democracy; it marks a special day in our journey to make Nigeria a better country; and a more united nation.
