Accord Party Inaugurates Presidential Campaign Council 

The Accord Party has inaugurated its Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) in Lagos state, South-west Nigeria.

The party on Saturday also handed over its victory flag to its presidential candidate, Prof. Christopher Imumolen.

While receiving the flag, Imumolen said that Nigeria needed a visionary leader.

“The country is blessed and needs a leader that would rescue it.

“With a visionary leader, the youths who make up 70 per cent of the electorate will begin to have aspirations again.

“There is a need for a leader that would give the citizens a bright future and prepare them for ‘the great harvest.’

“Nigerians should begin to think of a new leader who has demonstrated selflessness and passion for the people:

“Many have benefitted from my scholarship programme. Farmers have been empowered. Women would also be empowered,” he assured.

The national chairman, Alhaji Mohammed Nalado, said that the party wanted to bring a positive change in the country.

He urged the electorate to ignore some people parading themselves as Accord Party officials, describing them as impostors who had seen that the party was growing fast.

“Imumolen is the party’s presidential candidate recognized by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC),” he said.

The national chairman described the Presidential Campaign Council members as people of integrity who were loyal to the party and would deliver on their mandate.

The vice presidential candidate, Alhaji  Bala Maru, promised that the Accord Party would provide employment opportunities for the youths, if elected.

“The youths would be empowered by providing trading platform they could use to earn income,” Maru added.
