The 2023 African Democratic Congress (ADC) Presidential Candidate, Dumebi Kachikwu, has slammed the coalition attempting to take over the party, saying Nigerians are tired of ‘geriatric’ politicians.

Briefing newsmen on Wednesday, Kachikwu said individuals in the coalition, largely comprising a former vice president, former governors, ministers and political office holders are merely shopping around for a party to prosecute their “chopping must continue” ambition.

Kachikwu further criticized their claims of being on a “rescue mission” for ordinary Nigerians, questioning how those who have “presided over the affairs of this nation for the past four decades” and left “nothing to show for their decades of leadership” can now be the solution.

“We are a nation lacking in the basics whose majority are poor but here we are watching those who set our nation on fire saying they are the fire brigade. No you are not; you are a bunch of greedy and selfish old men who believe that political power is your birthright.

“Nigerians are tired of your generation and reject everything you have to offer which is nothing,” he said.
