We will not tolerate any form of indiscipline, anti-party activity – ADC

Sunday, August 10, 2025 - The Interim National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, David Mark, has expressed his commitment to upholding the party’s constitution.

Mark also assured that the party would not condone any form of anti-party activities from any member.

He said that the lack of internal democracy is responsible for bad governance in Nigeria, stressing that the ADC is seriously working towards ensuring that a level playing ground is provided for all.

Mark, represented by a chieftain of the party, Sen. Abubakar Sadiq Yar’adua, who represented Katsina Central at the National Assembly under the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, spoke during a meeting of the Coalition Partners in Kaduna at the weekend.

He applauded the leadership of the party in the state for setting a pace for other states to emulate, assuring all party members and other coalition partners of a fair playing group.

The former Senate President urged them to be coordinated, as, according to him, it is not going to be business as usual.

On the registration of members, David Mark emphasized that the process would be free, fair and credible to accommodate all, adding that mechanisms are already in place to checkmate any form of manipulation that is capable of denting the image of the party.

The Kaduna State Chairman of the party, Elder Patrick Ambut, while responding, disclosed that since the day the coalition was unveiled, the membership of the party has continued to swell.

Speaking on the state of the nation vis-a-vis the coalition, Ambut emphasized that Nigeria and Nigerians have never had it so bad as what is obtainable under the leadership of the APC, from 2015 till date.

According to him, “Nigeria is in quagmire politically, economically, socially and even psychologically”.

Ambut assured that the emergence of the coalition has provided a veritable platform to give Nigeria the needed political change.

A former chieftain of the APC who is now a member of the ADC, Salihu Lukman, also said that his former political party has failed Nigeria in providing good governance to the people.

Lukman stressed that poverty, insecurity and hunger are on the increase among Nigerians, hence the need for a genuine change that the ADC is out to provide to the people.
