Saturday, August 2, 2025 - The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has warned the All Progressives Congress (APC) against undermining its political prowess.
The spokesperson for the
party, Bolaji Abdullahi, stated this while responding to claims that the APC
had underrated the ADC for not having any state governors.
He asserted that the ADC
is focused on building a solid country and presenting a valid alternative for
Nigerians.
According to him, “It’s good. Let them continue to
underrate us. When we started, they said it was dead on arrival. When we
announced our coalition, they said they gave us six months. So, let them
continue to underrate us. It’s better for us.
“But we are not underrating them; we are not
underrating the challenges and the enormity of the task ahead of us. Because
what we seek goes beyond ourselves; it goes beyond just winning the 2027
elections. It is not just to win power, but to build a solid country. So, we
are not underrating the challenges that we face.
“So, let them continue to underrate us. There
is no problem.”
He noted that the party
had started attracting new members even before the commencement of its
aggressive membership drive.
“It is not about targeting a particular number
of people because you know it is a new party. Once the structures are set up at
the state level, you will see an aggressive membership drive. Even before we
start that, I know how many people are trooping into the party on daily basis.
“That is so because ADC is the only party that
presents an alternative to Nigerians. Every Nigerian that is tired of the
current suffering going on in this current administration is welcome into the
party. All Nigerians of voting age who want to be members of our party will be
welcome.
“Also, people from any party, whether PDP,
NNPP or APC, are all welcome to our party, that is why we are coalition. The
party’s door will not be shut on anybody. The only thing is that when they come
in, they have to abide by the principles of the party,” he said.
