2027: Rivers is nobody’s private estate. – ADC gov candidate

Dr. Gabriel Pidomson, the gubernatorial candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Rivers State, has declared that the 2027 election will not be a contest between individual candidates or political factions, but a referendum for the state's people. Speaking to journalists in Port Harcourt, Pidomson emphasized that Rivers people will not accept any attempt to impose a governor upon them.

He criticized the "Rainbow Coalition," a political arrangement initiated by former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, stating that it cannot affect the electorate's choice of their preferred governor. Pidomson dismissed claims of the Rainbow Coalition's growing influence, asserting that the real people in Rivers are not with them, and they will eclipse the coalition's "rainbow" in the upcoming election.

He also dismissed allegations that the coalition has a strong influence, promising that the ADC would "eclipse their rainbow" in the governorship race. Pidomson dismissed claims that the coalition has a growing influence, stating that the real people in Rivers are not aligned with them, and they will eclipse the coalition's "rainbow."
