Ahead of the 2027 general election, the Allied Conservative Congress (ACC) has announced that its presidential ticket is open for any interested person to pick.
The party, however, stated that it is only the presidential primary that will determine the flag bearer, as there will be no zoning of the presidential ticket.
A statement signed by the National Chairman of ACC, Rev. Olusegun Peters, noted that the party is currently building strong structures across the nation and mobilizing citizens to its fold as the foremost political movement with a conservative ideology, determined to rebuild trust in government and redirect the nation from its current course to the path of rectitude, progress, development, and advancement.
“Nigerians need competent, reliable, trustworthy, resourceful, and experienced leaders to pilot the affairs of the nation.

“ACC assures fellow compatriots that it will field credible candidates in 2027. It is time to save our beloved nation from imminent collapse. It is a task that must be done in the quest for sustainable development and democracy in Nigeria.
“Sadly, our dear country is at a crossroads in its democratic journey. There is confusion in government, hunger, and anger in the land. It is time for action by all patriotic citizens, particularly governments at all levels, in accordance with Section 14(2)(b) of the 1999 Constitution, as amended, which provides that the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.
“Nigerians are hungry and want the fruits of democracy to alleviate their suffering. ACC calls on President Bola Tinubu to urgently address the needs of the people, subsidize the cost of foodstuffs, and provide palliatives and social amenities that will improve people’s standards of living and boost economic growth.
“To achieve this, the president should set aside political and ethnic sentiments and patronage and appoint well-experienced Nigerians to handle critical national issues that will revamp the economy, ensure political stability, and maintain public order.
“The nation’s youths have expressed their anger; they should get ready for 2027 and speak with their votes, as power resides with the people. Indeed, 2027 will be a litmus test of Nigerians’ political sagacity in electing credible, competent, and God-fearing leaders. They should be assured that ACC is with them in restoring the lost glory and prosperity of our dear country,” the statement reads.
