The Youth Wing of the African Democratic Congress has rejected the opposition party coalition led by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, former Senate President David Mark, former Governor of Rivers State Rotimi Amaechi, former Governor of Kaduna State Nasir El-Rufai, former Minister of Interior Rauf Aregbesola, and others.

Musa Matara, the spokesman for ADC, disclosed on Thursday at a gathering of the party’s youth wing.

This comes as Wednesday, Atiku, Amaechi, David Mark, and others adopted ADC as the opposition coalition to unseat President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027.

At the event, a faction of the party led by Raph Nwosu had handed the leadership to the opposition coalition with David Mark as interim chairman and Aregbesola as secretary.

Reacting, Matara said the party’s structure cannot be handed to a coalition of what he described as old people who spoiled Nigeria in the past.

According to him, the ADC youths and members will not succumb to the hijacking of their party in the name of opposition coalition.

He faulted claims by Raph Nwosu that all executives of the party have resigned their positions.

“The Opposition coalition were the people who spoilt Nigerian government in the past.
“They are old politicians who have no ideology. ADC is a party with ideology.

“We don’t want any new members to hijack the party.

“Who appointed the interim national chairman, Secretary and others? Is it the National Executive Committee or the National Working Committee?

“We are still in ADC; we don’t have any other party other than ADC.

“They can come and join us, but not to hijack the party,” he stated.

Earlier, DAILY POST reports that the presidential candidate of ADC at the 2023 election, Dumebi Kachikwu, said that the interim said that the emergence of David Mark as the party’s factional interim national chairman is a disservice to Nigerians.

He added that the aim of the opposition coalition was to hand power to Atiku in 2027.

If you are in ADC before the emergence of the coalition, this is the time to cash out from Tinubu and APC. Just tell them you'll cause problem and instigate them with court case then name your price you are good to go.
