ADC Chieftain Leke Abejide Rejects Coalition, Vows to Protect Party from Hijackers

By Samuel Temiloluwa

A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Leke Abejide, has rejected any form of coalition with other parties, stating that he will not allow “people from nowhere” to take over the party.

Abejide, a member of the National Assembly, expressed his discontent with the party’s leadership, citing a lack of transparency and disregard for the party’s constitution.

Abejide noted that Kingsley Ogga, who is still parading himself as chairman was expelled from the party and is no longer recognized as the state chairman.

He expressed surprise upon hearing that an ADC meeting was being held in Kogi State at Senator Tunde Ogeha’s house, with Ogeha purporting to be the party leader.

He said as the national leader of the party and having been the party’s financial for over 8 years, he questioned the legitimacy of Ogeha’s leadership.

He noted the irony, given the party’s constitution stipulates that members can only hold positions after two years in the party, unless a waiver is granted by the National Executive Committee (NEC), which has not convened to grant such a waiver.

He described Ogga’s actions as a “kangaroo meeting” and vowed to take action against him.

Abejide said the matter has been taken to court, stating that he would show the current leadership that he is not a fool and knows what he is doing.

He further stressed that how on earth the only National Assembly member of the party, someone from nowhere just came to take over forcefully, pointed out that though Chief Ralph Nwosu told him that some people are coming to join the party not taking over as it is now.

Abejide expressed his opposition to any form of coalition, stating that it would be a mistake that cannot be corrected.

He advised Sen. David Mark leadership to go back and look for another plan, rather than pursuing the current course of action, as ADC will not be available for such or they should go back and register their ADA.

“There is no coalition, coalition Yamotu, how some people would call it, coalition of what?”
– “Let’s go to contest and see who will win.”
– “The mistake has been made, cannot be corrected.”

The internal conflict within the ADC could have significant implications for the party’s stability and future prospects.

The dispute highlights the need for the party to adhere to its constitution and ensure that leadership transitions are conducted transparently and lawfully.
