A frontline Presidential aspirant on the platform of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Mohammed Hayatu-Deen, on Thursday night picked his nomination form to formally contest the Presidential primary of the party.
Hayatu-Deen arrived at the ADC National Headquarters in Abuja to a rousing reception from a massive crowd of supporters, party members, youth groups, and well-wishers.
Hayatu-Deen, a renowned economist, is the first presidential aspirant to pick up the ADC presidential nomination form, which was presented to him by the party’s National Organising Secretary, Prince Chinedu Idigo.
The supporters chanted solidarity songs and reiterated calls for leadership focused on security, economic recovery, job creation, and relief from the rising cost of living.
Speaking shortly after receiving the form, Hayatu-Deen said the 2027 election must be centered on rebuilding the economic and security foundations of the country.
“Nigerians are tired of living in fear. They are tired of watching businesses struggle, jobs disappear, and the cost of basic necessities rise beyond what ordinary people can afford,” he said.
“This election cannot be about politics as usual. It must be about how to secure our communities, rebuild confidence in the economy, create jobs at scale, and make life more affordable for millions of Nigerians.”
Hayatu-Deen said insecurity remains one of the biggest threats to Nigeria’s future, warning that no country can prosper when farmers cannot safely access their farms, businesses operate under fear, and investors lack confidence in the system.
“We cannot build prosperity in an atmosphere of fear and instability. Security is the foundation upon which every strong economy is built,” he stated.
The ADC presidential aspirant also pledged to pursue policies aimed at reducing the cost of doing business, supporting small and medium-sized enterprises, expanding opportunities for young people, and driving broad-based economic growth.
“I have spent decades helping businesses grow and supporting the creation of jobs. I understand what it takes to build institutions, unlock investment, and create opportunities at scale. Nigeria has the talent and potential to succeed, but we need disciplined leadership and serious execution. This is why I am putting my best foot forward,” he added.
