The All Progressives Congress (APC), has said the opposition African Democratic Congress (ADC) is the architect of its own misfortune.
According to the ruling party, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC’s) decision to de-recognise the “factional” David Mark-led ADC executives in compliance with judgment of court, is valid in law, justified in fact, and consistent with electoral policy and democratic practice.
APC in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary,
Felix Morka, said electoral body’s action is the consequence of the opposition coalition party’s reckless and desperate misadventure.
Morka said it is therefore highly escapist and irresponsible for the ADC to blame the APC for its internal woes of which they are the sole architects.
“The ADC is a party that never was. By design, it was a kamikaze contraption with a “follow-come” self-destructive detonator. It had to unravel and now unraveling fast by installment.
“When it’s factional leadership under the duo of David Mark and Rauf Aregbesola parachuted into the party like thoughtless and planless commandos, and hijacked the party in violent violation of its constitutional stipulations regarding leadership succession, and in disregard of the rule of law, the ADC set its own date with destiny.
“The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC’s) decision to de-recognize the factional David Mark-led executives in compliance with judgment of court, is valid in law, justified in fact, and consistent with electoral policy and democratic practice. It is the consequence of the Party’s reckless and desperate misadventure.
“The ADC’s unwillingness to take responsibility for its miserable failure to follow due process, order its internal affairs, and manage its self-inflicted crisis makes ADC grossly unfit as platform to be taken seriously by Nigerians. A party that cannot fix itself cannot possibly fix Nigeria.
“The ADC has absolutely nothing to offer more than its senseless attacks against the APC. Attacking the APC seems to be its cardinal commitment and manifesto. It is a party bereft of ideas and lost in vain desperation for power.
“Our great Party and the administration of President Bola Tinubu remain steadfast in delivering on the Renewed Hope Agenda, and strengthening democratic institutions for peace, unity and prosperity of all Nigerians,”the statement added.
