The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is currently grappling with internal strife following the emergence of Tunde Mark and former Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, as national leaders of the party. Their sudden rise to leadership positions has sparked outrage among state chairmen and other stakeholders, who view the move as an imposition.
According to reports, several chairmen have expressed dissatisfaction with what they describe as a hijack of the party’s structure without proper consultation or due process. The aggrieved members claim that the announcement of the new leadership came as a shock, alleging that it was orchestrated without transparency or constitutional backing.
In a strongly worded statement, some party stakeholders warned that such actions could fracture the unity of the ADC and undermine its credibility ahead of future elections. They emphasized the need for internal democracy and adherence to the party’s rules in choosing leaders, urging the party’s founding members and elders to intervene before the situation escalates further.
