Ahead of the 2027 general election, a new political movement, the Allied Conservative Congress (ACC), has emerged, saying its vision and mission was to rescue Nigeria from sliding to anarchy, economic depression, and political upheavals.
A statement by the National Publicity Secretary of the ACC, Alhaji Abubakar Sadiq, noted that the movement determined to sail Nigerians to a greater and brighter destination and make the country great again with its conservation ideology.
The statement further stated that the clear provisions of the 1999 Constitution are neglected and observed in the breach by past and present governments in Nigeria since the restoration of democracy in 1999.
“It is this hijacking of the government by a cabal and exclusion of the people in the affairs of government that led to the horrible situation of Nigeria today and the urgent need to rescue and salvage it immediately.
“All patriotic Nigerians and lovers of democracy have seen the need for the formation of a new political movement that will pioneer and pilot the rescue mission of our beloved country before it is too late.
“Eminent Nigerians with conservative bent have met severally across the country, brainstormed, strategised and chart the way forward for the country.

“Existing political movements, political parties, politicians with progressive ideology have offered their services to the nation which instead of improving the well-being of citizens rather impoverished them which resulted in the current national tragedy, disillusionment and confusion in governance”, the statement noted.
Furthermore, the ACC said it is resolved to make a difference and stand out among the motley crowd of political groups and parties that are promoting democracy in Nigeria and seeking the people’s mandate to rule.
“It has since applied to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for registration as a political party. And has structures across the 36 states of the federation and Abuja.
“Leaders and members of ACC are men and women of honour, integrity, and probity, with exceeding passion to make Nigeria forever great by restoring sanity, morality, honesty, uprightness, national cohesion, unity and patriotism. Nigerian people who belong to our political movement have equal stake in the movement irrespective of ethnicity, religion and gender.
“Its flag consists of three equal-sized vertical curved stripes, green, white and purple and the movement’s logo inside the white part of the flag. Green represents Agriculture, White represents Peace, Purple represents strength, while canoe represents sailing Nigerians to a greater destination.
“Logo of the political movement is a map of Nigeria edged coloured purple with a canoe inside coloured brown, an abbreviation of the movement’s name, ACC in purple and its slogan forever great in purple under the map and name of the movement, Allied Conservative Congress in green, purple and green, above the map. Its slogan is forever great.
“As a conservative political movement, ACC will promote a national policy based on social justice, rule of law, freedom, equality, human dignity, fiscal responsibility peace and progress of all Nigerian people”, the statement added.
