ADC 2023 Guber Candidates Drum Support For Bala As National Chair

The 2023 governorship candidates of the 36 states under the African Democratic Congress on Monday urged the opposition coalition to follow due process in the transition process.

The candidates, in a statement by their spokesperson, Terhemen Tilley-Gyado, who was the ADC governorship candidate in the 2023 election in Benue, said there was a need to address the Nigerian public on recent developments within the ADC.

“We unanimously acknowledge, appreciate and support the voluntary resignation of our amiable National Chairman, Chief Ralph Okey Nwosu. In line with the party’s constitution, we endorse the seamless transition of leadership to the Deputy National Chairman, Hon. Nafiu Bala, who will henceforth oversee the Office of the National Chairman in an acting capacity. This decision ensures stability and continuity in our party’s mission.

“We respectfully urge esteemed leaders of the proposed coalition-including Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Senator David Mark, Mr. Peter Obi, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, Abubakar Malami SAN, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi and others to adhere strictly to due process.”
