The African Democratic Congress, ADC, has offered entertainment stars TuBaba, DJ Switch, Omotola Jelade-Ekeinde, and soccer star Ahmed Musa free tickets to run for any elective office of their choosing in the 2023 general elections in a bid to harness the creative potential of young Nigerians.
Mr. Nwosu defended the option of celebrities to run on the party’s ticket, claiming that celebrities have given back to the nation more than today’s elected politicians. On the ADC platform, he added, celebrities will run for governorship, senatorial seats, and even the highest office in the land if they meet the criteria outlined in the 1999 constitution (as amended).
