Empty Bone’ ADC Has Nothing To Offer You, Shettima Tells Nigerians

By Rotela Oguns

Vice-President Khashim Shettima has advised Nigerians against pitching their political tent with the African Democratic Congress (ADC) stressing that thé political party is an empty bone that has nothing to offer them.

Shettima made this remark on Wednesday afternoon while addressing a large crowd of party faithful who trooped out to meet him in Zamfara at  Gusau Trade Fair Complex.

He stressed that the opposition party is shorn of juicy stuff within and without.

“Do you know that ADC? It has nothing to offer for you, therefore you shall not go there.

“Do you know bone? ADC is just like an empty bone neither has bone marrow nor flesh on it,” Shettima said.

Shettima noted that those in the ADC are bereft of ideas to take the country out of the woods, saying, they ‘lack the qualities needed to deliver Nigerians”.

The ADC is a political amalgam formed to serve as an alternative to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) which many analysts have recently criticized for planning to turn the country to a ‘one-party’ system.

Though a fledgling on paper many see as the party that can give APC a run for its money in the forthcoming general election.

Considering the calibre of politicians in its fold, it is believed in some quarters that the ADC is now the main opposition party as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is bedevilled by internal crisis that many think has turned it into a spent force.
