ADC Leadership Demand Members’ Full Transition Into Party
The leadership of the opposition coalition has demanded that its members resigned from their current political parties and join the African Democratic Congress fully, although it gave no specific deadline for the transition.
The National Publicity Secretary of the ADC, Bolaji Abdullahi, stated this in Abuja on Thursday following a caucus meeting that included senior party leaders and prominent political figures.
The All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party have dismissed a directive by the African Democratic Congress, directing prospective members in other parties to decamp to the ADC ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The APC and PDP said the move by the coalition posed no threat and would have no impact on them.
Since the ADC was introduced in July 2nd as the coalition platform to challenge President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 elections, a few opposition leaders have switched parties to join it.
However, most have yet to leave their existing parties formally.
