The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has dismissed a widely circulated report claiming that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has released and validated a list of its state chairmen nationwide.<\/p>\n
In a statement on Saturday signed by the party\u2019s National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC described the report as fake news orchestrated by individuals bent on causing confusion within the party.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), to the best of our knowledge and verification, has issued no such confirmation, neither officially nor unofficially,\u201d Abdullahi said.<\/p>\n
He clarified that the constitution of state leadership in any political party is an internal matter, strictly within the party\u2019s prerogative, and that INEC only recognizes what is duly submitted by the party through appropriate channels after due process.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs of today, no such comprehensive list has been submitted or confirmed by INEC,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n
The party called on its members and stakeholders to remain calm and guided only by official communication from the national leadership, warning against the antics of mischief-makers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe strength of any political movement lies not just in its numbers, but in its discipline, structure, and fidelity to internal democracy. The ADC remains committed to these values,\u201d Abdullahi added.<\/p>\n
The ADC further urged the public to disregard the fake list, assuring that any authentic updates regarding its structure would be shared via its verified communication channels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
