You too would claim you are a graduate.
Re: Factional ADC Chair Now Has Security, Moves Around Like A Governor by DrWokili:
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar says vested interests are responsible for the crisis rocking the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Speaking in an interview with DW Hausa, Atiku alleged that as a result of its growing popularity, ADC had become a target.

ABUBAKAR, IS IT NOT TYPICAL OF THE NIGERIAN WAY OF PLAYING DIRTY POLITICS TO PLANT INFILTRATORS WITHIN THE RANKS OF A POLITICAL PARTY STRUCTURE? YOUR CRY SUGGESTS THAT YOUR POLITICAL EXPERIENCE IS ZERO, DESPITE SPENDING DECADES IN POLITICS. YOU ARE A FAILURE IN THE POLITICAL SCHOOL!

He said regardless of the crisis, Nigerians still have faith in the party and have continued to show solidarity for it.
So far, people from all states are still joining the party. Nothing has happened to suggest that Nigerians are withdrawing their support. Not at all,” he said.

THESE SHOULD BE THE PEOPLE LACKING IN DISCERNMENT, AND THEY ARE PUTTING THEIR PRECIOUS FUTURE WELL-BEING INTO THE HANDS OF POLITICIANS WHO RUINED NIGERIA AND WHOSE INTERESTS COULD BE ANYTHING BUT PATRIOTIC.

Although he did not mention any name, Atiku said an official of the party, suspected to be Nafiu Bala, is enjoying unusual privileges suggestive of outside backing.

“What is happening is external interference. Some individuals have been bought over and used because certain interests have noticed that the party is gaining momentum by the day. They see this growth as a threat if it continues.”

THE LAW OF KARMA IS AT WORK! YOU ARE REAPING FRUITS FROM THE EVIL TREE YOU PLANTED WHEN YOU WERE A VICE-PRESIDENT, WHEN YOUR INFLUENCE WAS MORE THAN OBASANJO'S, ESPECIALLY DURING THE FIRST TENURE. OUR MEMORY IS STILL FRESH REGARDING HOW YOU MANIPULATED THE ELECTORAL PROCESSES AND USED YOUR INCUMBENCY POWERS TO REFLECT YOUR WISH IN ELECTORAL OUTCOMES RATHER THAN THE PEOPLE'S VERDICT.

“How can someone who claimed to be the party chairman suddenly be provided with security, vehicles and a residence?

ARE YOU TRYING TO BE AN UNTRAINED LAWYER? YOU HAVE A HORDE OF SECURITY APPARATUS AROUND YOU, AND IT HAS SUDDENLY BECOME A SIN FOR ANOTHER PERSON TO ASK FOR SECURITY? WHICH PART OF THE CONSTITUTION IS BREACHED? WE WANT TO KNOW!

It clearly points to outside influence. We have evidence. We know where he resides, and we observe how he moves around, almost like a governor,” he said.

IF YOU'RE MONITORING HOW HE MOVES AROUND, YOU ARE BREACHING HIS PRIVACY AND THREATENING HIS FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL!

''He also questioned the factional chairman’s movements since the crisis began. Since the beginning of this crisis, he has not travelled to his hometown. Why is he afraid?” he asked.

WHICH EMPERICAL STATISTICS POINT TO YOUR CONTRIVED THEORY THAT FREQUENT VISITS TO THE VILLAGE ARE A DEMONSTRATION OF FEARLESSNESS? INSTEAD OF DICTATING THE SPACE OF THE POLITICAL EVENTS THROUGH STRATEGIES, THE OPPOSITION HAS RELEGATED ITSELF TO THE POSITION OF A HABITUAL COMPLAINANT AND CONFUSED ANALYST DUE TO THEIR CLUELESSNESS AND LACK OF STRATEGIC PLANS TO TAKE CARE OF THE IMMEDIATE AND ANTICIPATED PROBLEMS. CAN THIS SET OF PEOPLE MANAGE OVER 200 MILLION LIVES? WHAT A NATIONAL SUICIDE!

The crisis in the party reached its height when the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) removed the names of David Mark, National Chairman, and Rauf Argebesola, National Secretary of the party, from its portal. INEC based its action on the ruling of the Court of Appeal. Daily Trust reports that Nafiu Bala, factional chairman of the party, has been locked in a battle with Mark over control of the party.
Bala, who was Deputy National Vice Chairman of the ADC, had rejected the ratification of Mark as National Chairman, back in July.
He had said after the previous exco of the party resigned, he was supposed to take over as chairman.
He had headed to the court for an injunction to restrain Mark and others under his National Working Committee (NWC) to stop parading themselves as leaders of the party. He also sought an order to ask INEC to recognise him as acting national chairman. Bala also sought an order to stop the commission from recognising or dealing with Mark’s group as officials of the party. The motion ex parte was heard on September 4, 2025, after which Justice Emeka Nwite of a Federal High Court in Abuja granted his prayers and directed the respondents, including INEC, to show cause why the application should not be granted.

Mark had appealed the order on December 18, 2025, challenging the jurisdiction of the trial court, but the court of appeal dismissed the appeal on March 12, 2026, and issued preservatory orders.

Bala had filed another motion on September 15, 2025, seeking to restrain the ADC from holding any convention, congress, conference, or meeting, and to stop INEC from monitoring or recognising any such activities pending the determination of the suit.

EVEN THOUGH BALA MAY BE DOING A HATCHET JOB, WHICH COULD BE CLASSIFIED AS UNPATRIOTIC AND SELF-SERVING, HE HAS DEMONSTRATED, LIKE ARTHUR NZERIBE, AND UNLIKE THE RIOTOUS OPPOSITION, THAT HE IS STRATEGIC, METHODICAL, AND SPENDS QUALITY TIME TO PLAN TO ACHIEVE HIS DEVIOUS OBJECTIVE THAT MANY DUB A MERCENARY ASSIGNMENT. IF IT IS TRUE, IT IS MOST UNFORTUNATE THAT A SANE MAN CAN DESCEND SO LOW TO TRAMPLE ON THE NATIONAL INTEREST TO ATTAIN A VERY NARROW PERSONAL INTEREST WHEN PEOPLE ARE VICTIMS OF AVOIDABLE DEATH AND TERROR IS REIGNING UNIMPEDED. WHAT A COLLAPSE OF A CONSCIENCE!



Last week, INEC said it received multiple letters from solicitors to both parties, making competing claims to the party’s leadership and issuing various demands. In its resolutions, INEC said it would abide strictly by the orders of the court of appeal in handling the leadership dispute within the ADC.

NO NEUTRAL PERSON LIKE ME CAN BLAME INEC FOR BEING LAWFUL IN THIS INSTANCE, BY DECIDING TO OBEY COURT ORDERS. THE OPPOSITION LACKS COHESION BECAUSE OF GREEDINESS AND PERSONAL COMPETING AMBITION FOR THE THEFT OF THE NATIONAL WEALTH WHEN ELECTED. MAJORITY OF THE NIGERIAN POLITICIANS, WITHIN AND OUTSIDE THE GOVERNMENT, HAVE THE ITCHING HANDS TO STEAL.

EVEN THOUGH I AM DISSATISFIED WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PRESENT GOVERNMENT, I CAN NOT FANTOM THE OPPOSITION AS A CREDIBLE REDEMPTIVE ALTERNATIVE. THIS CONCLUSION IS BASED ON THE PAST EXPERIENCE, THE COMPOSITION OF THE OPPOSITION, AND THEIR MODUS OPERANDI. THE NATIONAL LEADER WHO WILL REDEEM THIS COUNTRY IS STILL IN OBSCURITY, AND OUR PRAYER IS FOR GOD TO UNVEIL HIM/HER FOR THE SAKE OF THE DYING MASSES ACROSS ALL TRIBES, REGIONS, AND RELIGIONS.

BEFORE THEN, WE SHOULD BE WISE TO CONTINUE PRAYING THAT GOD TOUCHES THE HEARTS OF THE PRESENT LEADERS TO START PLACING THE INTEREST OF THE NATION ABOVE ALL OTHER CONSIDERATIONS. SHALOM!!

Heffalump:
With the way things are going Nigeria will need external forces to get rid of Tinubu and APC at all cost. Tinubu is a junta!
How was he going to stage war against Niger republic, Mali, and Burkina Faso currently under military rule? He's even worse than the military guys in those countries.
External forceshuh??

Coupists!

Emergency lovers of Nigeria dem….

And we should give these ppl power for the first time ever?? They will surely sellout the Country to an enemy nation.

immaculatesense:
Why is Atiku and co monitoring Nafiu's movements? Are they planning to _______ him or set him up?
Atiku must explain his statement clearly.

NOTHING MUST HAPPEN TO NAFIU BALA GOMBE.

NO BE JUJU BE DAT?
Re: Factional ADC Chair Now Has Security, Moves Around Like A Governor by AdUlAM(m): 5:56am On Apr 06
Are you sure you're well?
iichidodo:
The opposition is just disorganized for God's sake, just like 2023, how couldn't this people just get their acts together and kick Thieffinubu out of that seat?..

Tenses:
For those who still have any doubt that tinubu is not responsible for the crisis in ADC, I have just one question or two at most.

1. Who's in charge of the Arm forces?

2. Depending on your answer I'd ask the second question.
You go buy land wey get litigation , wahala come for the land wey you buy , you come dey blame your village people. ...no be juju be that. ..
As old as Atiku dey, he supposed to have his own party registered, managed, and controlled like Sowore, Seriake Dickson, the late Gani Fawehinmi, Chris, Okotie, and the rest...
When you talk of the then CPC, you can't remove Buhari from the party picture...
If there were no crack in the wall, there wouldn't be an opportunity for a lizard to crawl in...
