You’re In Or You’re Out! David Mark Draws Line In The Sand For Political Allies

The interim National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), David Mark, has issued a stern warning to party members, declaring that anti-party activities and indiscipline will no longer be tolerated under his leadership.

Speaking to members in Abuja, the former Senate President emphasized that loyalty and full commitment are non-negotiable within the ADC coalition.

“There’s no room for sitting on the fence. You’re either with ADC or you’re not. Anyone not fully committed will be left behind,” Mark stated.

He added that the party is set to revamp its grassroots leadership structure from the polling units to the national level, adapting to modern political realities and creating space for a new generation of leaders.

“Our doors will open to the next generation. Every structure of the party will reflect that — from our policies to nominations and responsibilities,” he said.

Meanwhile, during its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on Tuesday, the ADC announced significant growth, claiming it now has 28 senators and over 100 elected representatives across Nigeria.

Ralph Nwosu, the party’s founder and former National Chairman, attributed this growth to the ADC’s refusal to be swayed by financial inducements, which he said has strengthened the party’s credibility and appeal.

Nwosu noted that the party currently boasts more than 46 members in the House of Representatives and over 50 lawmakers in various state assemblies — figures that continue to rise.
