The presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in the 2023 general elections, Dumebi Kachikwu, has said that the David Mark-led ADC coalition brought Nigeria to ruin.

Kachikwu made the remark on Thursday while appearing as a guest on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.

“You have to look at the antecedents of those who make up the coalition. Someone like Bolaji Abdullahi and those he represents.

“These are the people who have brought Nigeria to a ruin. These are people who were entrusted with responsibilities and they failed woefully.

“So, it’s amusing seeing and hearing these people say they want to come and rescue Nigeria. You can’t set a house on fire and then say you are the fire brigade who wants to put the fire out. Check each of them. They are a bunch of former this or that.

“If they have good leadership qualities, Nigerians will not be complaining. What are they trying to come and do? What nation are they coming to rescue? They have nothing to show for their years of leadership,” he said.
