The National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Chief Ralph Nwosu has expressed the readiness of his party to join forces with political parties of like minds to end what he termed, ‘misrule’ by the All Progressive Congress, APC, administration, which he alleged has brought the country to its knees.
Ralph Nwosu spoke on Saturday, during the Niger State ADC Convergence meeting and new zonal and state office/Secretariat along eastern by-pass, Minna Niger state.
According to him, the country has never had it so bad in over 60 years of nationhood, regretting that the situation is so pathetic that most Nigerians have become not only vulnerable to attacks but beggars feeding from crumbs in the midst of plenty.
He said the ADC, is leading the way to bring an end to the sufferings of Nigerians by providing selfless leadership that will end hunger, frustrations and serial abuse of power by the APC government.
Nwosu, who spoke through the National Vice chairman north-central, Mr Peter Edeh said it is unfortunate that Nigerians have been reduced to beggars feeding from the dust bin and crumbs that fell from the APC table, and this he said will not be allowed to continue.
Also speaking, the Coordinator COPDEM Niger State, Mr Chris Oche said the gathering of different political interests is one of the milestone towards ending anti-citizens policies of the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu led administration.
While calling on all opposition political parties to rally round the ADC ahead of the 2027 general elections, Oche expressed optimism that the ADC will provide the much needed good governance and freedom of speech Nigerians so much desire come next dispensation.
However, it was observed that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, as well as IPAC were conspicuously absent during the Saturday’s unveiling of the ADC zonal and state offices which was attended by politicians from within and outside Niger State.
A helicopter crash in Saudi Arabia killed 14 Saudi citizens on Sunday, the kingdom’s official press agency reported, adding that the aircraft belonged to state oil giant Aramco.
The Saudi Press Agency, citing an official at the energy ministry, reported the helicopter crashed in Ras Tanura in the country’s east.
“The accident claimed the lives of all 14 passengers, all Saudi citizens,” the agency said, adding that an investigation was under way to determine the cause of the crash.
Aramco says it operates more than 60 aircraft, including helicopters serving more than 300 heliports in Saudi Arabia, making it one of the largest corporate fleets in the region.
The deadly accident comes as oil-rich Gulf nations seek to ramp up their output following Iranian attacks and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for the export of oil and gas.
The Gulf monarchy did not indicate the incident was in any way connected to a hostile attack.
During the Middle East war, Iranian attacks had targeted energy facilities in the Gulf.
Ras Tanura is home to one of the largest refineries in the Middle East, with a capacity of 550,000 barrels per day, and is critical to Saudi Arabia’s energy sector.
The refinery has been targeted several times, notably during an Iranian drone attack at the beginning of the conflict, which caused a fire and forced a partial shutdown.
Riyadh said in April that the weeks-long attacks had disrupted several production operations at key facilities, with refineries in Ras Tanura as well as Jubail, Yanbu and Riyadh targeted.
Saudi Arabia, the world’s leading crude exporter, produces a little over 10 million bpd.

An Improvised Explosive Device, IED, planted by alleged bandits along the Kurawa–Sabon Birni road in Sokoto State on Sunday hit a vehicle, killing one person and injuring many passengers.
The incident raised fresh concerns over the growing use of explosive devices by criminal groups operating in parts of the North-West.
The vehicle was said to be conveying passengers from surrounding communities to Sabon Birni when it ran over the explosive device, triggering a blast that severely damaged the vehicle and left several occupants injured.
A security analyst based in the area, Bashir Guyawa, disclosed the incident in a post on his Facebook page.
Guyawa described the incident as another reminder of the persistent security challenges confronting communities along the border axis.
He said the vehicle was on a routine passenger trip when the explosion occurred.
“The vehicle was conveying passengers early this morning on their way to Sabon Birni when the unfortunate incident happened,” he wrote.
Twelve people were injured in a clash between farmers from Larabar Gadan Sarki and herders from the communities of Majawa and Karade in Warawa Local Government Area of Kano State.
The chairman of Warawa Local Government, Lamido Sunusi Ahmad, disclosed this in a statement issued by his media aide, Musleem Garindau.
The statement said the council chairman visited the injured victims at Wudil General Hospital and directed that the local government should cover the cost of their treatment until they had fully recovered.
He also commended community leaders and security personnel for their swift intervention, noting that calm had been restored to the affected communities.
The chairman urged residents to refrain from spreading rumours or engaging in any act capable of escalating tensions and instead embrace dialogue to promote peaceful coexistence.
Speaking further, the Vice Chairman of Warawa Local Government, Hon. Ibrahim Abdu Madari, explained that the conflict involved residents of the communities, all of whom are indigenous to the area.
He said reports indicated that the violence began after a cow strayed into a farmer’s field and ate some crops. The farmer allegedly beat the cow, prompting its owner to assault the farmer, and the disagreement later escalated into a wider clash.
He also reiterated his appeal to residents to live peacefully and resolve disputes through dialogue and mutual understanding.
