Hon. (Dr.) Kenneth Gbandi, Chair of the African Democratic Congress Diaspora Network (ADC-DN) and Deputy National Chairman (Diaspora Engagements), has paid glowing tribute to Chief Ralphs Okey Nwosu, National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), on the occasion of his 66th birthday.
In his statement, Gbandi hailed Chief Nwosu as “a visionary leader with the courage to act,” noting that under his leadership, the ADC became the first political party in Nigeria to enshrine the diaspora as the 7th geopolitical zone and granted diaspora citizens full participatory rights within the party. “You have inspired a movement grounded in meritocracy over godfatherism, accountability over impunity, and a vision of a Nigeria built on peace, justice, and rapid development,” Gbandi stated.
He credited Chief Nwosu’s foresight for empowering diaspora voices to help shape the roadmap toward a new Nigeria, one that future generations will be proud of. “Your unwavering belief that a Nigeria of our dreams is possible is becoming a reality before our eyes. You have not only led a political party but you are nurturing a national renaissance,” he added. Gbandi concluded by celebrating Chief Nwosu’s integrity, dedication, and enduring impact on Nigeria’s political transformation.
