Blessing Ibunge in Port Harcourt The Rivers State governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Dr. Gabriel Pidomson, has said the 2027 governorship election will be a decisive opportunity
Dr. Gabriel Pidomson, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate for Rivers State governorship, has warned that 2027 voters will resist any imposition of a government upon them. Pidomson emphasized that the election will be a decisive moment for Rivers citizens to choose their leaders, rather than being dictated by political influence or alliances.
He stressed that Rivers State belongs to its people, not any individual or political group, and challenged the emerging Rainbow Coalition's claim of broad support. Pidomson's campaign has been conducting consultations across the state, which suggest voters desire a responsive and responsible government. His 10-point policy agenda focuses on the welfare and development of Rivers State, and his campaign is preparing structures to monitor the electoral process.
ADC agents will deploy at polling units to oversee voting and collation, ensuring the process is fair. Pidomson urged security agencies to protect citizens' constitutional rights during the election period and expressed confidence in his readiness for the 2027 contest, having been preparing since 2014.
