₦airaland Forum

Brief remarks by the National Chairman of the ADC, Sen. David Mark at the NWC meeting of the party.

October 7, 2025

1- We begin with a conviction that Nigeria can, and will, work for everyone — and with a commitment to build a party bigger thank any personality , stronger than any moment and positively different from any party in the annals of our country.

2-What makes the ADC different is simple: we will be a party of purpose and determination, not impulses— an institution that champions democratic values and a culture of accountability and responsibility across its organs and in every government it forms. Our leadership standard is non-negotiable: character. Competence. Courage. Discipline. These four pillars will guide our choices, shape our culture, and anchor our performances.

3-We are a Pan-African, people-oriented, problem -solving movement— sensitive to the needs of the poor and the young, women and men, persons with disabilities, workers, peasants entrepreneurs, retirees, civil society, and the vulnerable. We will convert empathy into policy , and policy into results.

4-Other parties revolve around individuals; the ADC will revolve around rules, policies, programs, people and results. We will insist on team spirit , collaboration , and internal democracy. The supremacy we seek is the supremacy of our constitution and institutions— over everything: Personality, improvisation, and idiosyncrasy.

5- From today, we must adopt an integrity and performance compact.

6-First, open party, open books: independent annual audits published; procurement rules enforced; well articulated conflict -of-interest and gift policies.

7- Second, merit before loyalty: all appointments—party and government—benchmarked to the pillar standard of character , competence , courage, and discipline.

8- Third, clean elections, clean governance: digital , verifiable membership and primaries; candidate rigorous screening before nomination; performance scorecards published quarterly.

9- Fourth, citizens first: service charters in every ADC-led government with timelines, public dashboards, and real feedback mechanisms.

10- Fifth, dignity and inclusion: standing councils for special interest group such as workers, women, Youth, farmers, professionals, retired security officers, educators, persons with disabilities, retirees, civil society, and the vulnerable - represented at the table not as tokens, but as architects of policies and programmes.

11- The ADC will defend the separation of powers, restore legislative and judicial independence, and strengthen oversight so that budgets serve the public interest, not private appetites. We will end the culture of parallel budgets and extra-budgetary maneuvers by enforcing strict and transparent planning, timely appropriations, and rigorous auditing.

12– The judiciary must again be a refuge for every citizen. We will back an independent, efficient, and trusted bench-appointments on merit, transparent case management, time-bound rulings, and a bias for justice over empty technicalities.

13- Nigerians are tired of slogans and statistics that do not translate into their welfare: food, power, jobs, and safety. We will focus on what works. We will pursue price stability and productivity through credible, rules-based coordination of fiscal and monetary policy.

14- We will secure our food supply by supporting farmers and agricultural value chains from inputs and storage to processing and markets. We will back small businesses and industry with affordable, performance-tied credit and local content that creates jobs, not rent. And we will shine a bright light on every naira-no parallel budget , no black-box spending, no sacred cows. Judge us by winat Nigerians feel in their daily lives, rhetorics and bland statistics: lower volatility, more reliable power, visible projects, and decent work.

I hope Bola Tinubu, Lagos Governor & Lagos APC read the above words clearly?

Any human or government that stops showing empathy in the name of enforcing law or in the name of governance is no longer for the people, but for the witches and wizards, and God forbids such person or government, they must fail woefully in all they do because "empathy, compassion and human conscience" are the hallmark of Godly principle that every sensible human must always remember and apply in all they do in life
