The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Sokoto State is facing a potential mass defection, as prominent party members Ubandoma, Dan Iya, Gumbi, and Sarkin Noma have threatened to leave the party.
They cited injustice and the hijacking of the party structure in favor of Aminu Waziri Tambuwal as reasons for their decision.
Tambuwal, a former Governor of Sokoto State, has been accused of manipulating the party structure to his advantage.
The party members claim that Tambuwal’s actions are unfair and undermine the principles of the party.
Murtala Aliyu, a party official, stated that the ADC will not tolerate individuals who disregard the party’s constitution.
He emphasized that the party is committed to upholding its principles and values [faÉ—akarwa].
The ADC has received support from some party members, but others have expressed discontent with Tambuwal’s influence.
The party insists it will not compromise on its values and principles.
Reports by THE NORTHERN STAR ONLINE, indicate that Tambuwal has been involved in internal party conflicts, but the reasons behind his actions are unclear.
The ADC maintains that it will not condone behavior that undermines the party’s integrity.
Ubandoma, Dan Iya, Gumbi, and Sarkin Noma have expressed frustration with the party’s handling of internal conflicts. They claim they will leave the party if their concerns are not addressed.
The party’s internal conflicts have raised questions about its stability and ability to present a united front in future elections.
