Politics › Re: Court Adjourns Suit Seeking Deregistration Of ADC, Others To May 5 by Chegesnd: 5:30pm On Apr 27 |
9jatriot: Since the attempt by Atiku to privatize a public ADC political party, it has been one week one trouble and infighting
The Undemocratic Ascendancy of the ADC’s New Hierarchy
If you describe the hostile takeover of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as a hijack, you would not be wrong. If you call it daylight robbery, you would also not be far off. Where you would be mistaken, however, is in believing that the new members of the ADC have demonstrated even a shred of democratic behavior since their arrival. There is no disputing that these newcomers have made the ADC more visible than it was nine months ago. Yet, since that now-infamous morning at the party’s unveiling—where the ADC was declared the final destination for their opposition coalition after failed attempts with the Labour Party, Social Democratic Party, PDP, and others—virtually every step taken since has been a misstep.
A Power Grab Disguised as Leadership
The first bizarre act by the new members was to orchestrate the removal of the party’s existing leaders and distribute key positions among themselves. David Mark assumed the chairmanship, while Rauf Aregbesola took the secretary role—all without consulting the state executives, the National Executive Committee (NEC), or even the local government and ward leaders. This blatant power grab ignored the ADC’s constitution, which explicitly states that only members of at least two years’ standing can aspire to executive positions. There is no evidence that the new leaders sought or obtained a waiver for this requirement. One can only surmise that they granted themselves the waiver, further exposing their disregard for due process.
Silencing Dissent: The Case of Leke Abejide and Dumebi Kachikwu
When news of these changes began to filter down the party hierarchy, Hon. Leke Abejide, one of the ADC’s highest-ranking elected officials and representative of Yagba East-West/Mopamuro Federal Constituency, dared to question the process. The response? His suspension from the party, labeled as “anti-party activity.” Clearly, the new leadership had no tolerance for dissent.
But Abejide was not the only casualty. Dumebi Kachikwu, the ADC’s presidential candidate in the last election, was completely sidelined—despite having contested alongside the very figures now leading the party (Atiku, Obi, Kwankwaso). His public criticism of the new hierarchy was met with indifference, another undemocratic move in a growing list.
Defiance of the Rule of Law
The new leadership’s contempt for democratic norms extended to the courts. When a court order directed them to explain why an exco member, Nafiu Bala Gombe, should not be recognized as the acting chairman (being the last remaining member of the previous executive), they simply ignored it. In a recent convention—held in defiance of electoral rules—they passed a resolution to suspend Bala Gombe once again, this time under the familiar guise of “anti-party activity.”
In a move reminiscent of military rule, they even proposed suspending the ADC’s constitution and replacing it with one of their own making—crafted without the input of other party members.
A Pattern of Undemocratic Behavior
The list of unconstitutional missteps by these new members is long and growing. There is little indication that they will stop unless the law intervenes to halt their undemocratic stride. What began as a quest for opposition unity has devolved into a brazen power grab, where democratic principles are sacrificed at the altar of ambition.
The ADC’s story is no longer about building a credible opposition; it is about how easily a party can be hijacked by those who have no respect for the rules—or the people—they claim to represent. Bro, you get mind ooo! Spent this whole time explaining madness! Even your wives will marvel at your level non- lucidity. I remember that Prose -'Our Husband Has Gon Mad Again', but I've forgotten the name of the Author. |

Politics › Re: Oseloka Obaze Replies Yul Edochie On Peter Obi's Record As Anambra Governor by Chegesnd: 9:53am On Apr 24 |
Richtaiwo: Honestly, I still cannot understand it. Here is a man whose record as governor is repeatedly associated with criticism rather than any meaningful achievement. The current Governor of Anambra State, a professor of Economics, has stated on several occasions that Pitobi’s administration increased the poverty rate in the state from 26 % to 53 %. There have also been accusations that he diverted state resources into his family business interests, while the brewery project he championed has been described by critics as little more than an expensive monument to poor judgment.
From the perspective of his detractors, there was hardly anything from his tenure that could be described as remarkable, and many people simply hoped to endure the end of his administration. What remains baffling is how a man viewed as politically underwhelming and deeply overrated has somehow been elevated by certain unquestioning supporters into the role of a national messiah. For many observers, that transformation is as absurd as it is difficult to comprehend. What a long Epistle! Pls let's conserve space here! Space is a resource and must be reasonably used. |
