The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has said that contrary to reports, the Federal High Court in Abuja did not issue any order restraining Senator David Mark and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola from acting as the party’s National Chairman and National Secretary.
Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, National Publicity Secretary of ADC, disclosed this in a statement issued on Thursday, September 11.
According to the ADC spokesman, the court, presided by Justice Emeka Nwite, had in its ruling on September 4, refused the ex-parte application filed by Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe and instead ordered that the defendants be put on notice, appear to show cause why the application should not be granted, and adjourned the matter to September 15, 2025.
“The ADC notes that resorting to fake news has become the last resort of desperate political jobbers who had been disappointed by INEC’s decision to stand on the side of the Nigerian people by acknowledging the leadership change in the party,” part of the statement reads.
ADC, therefore, “urged the media and the public to beware of fake news and to verify information to avoid misleading Nigerians.”
