Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has reaffirmed his support for Shehu Yohanna as the Acting/Interim Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Adamawa State.
In a statement issued by his spokesperson, Paul Ibe, Atiku urged all ADC stakeholders in the state to operate under the party structure led by Yohanna.
Ibe further noted that Atiku has endorsed the Sadiq Dasin-led Transition Team, encouraging it to work closely with the Yohanna-led executive to strengthen and fully establish the ADC in Adamawa.
According to Ibe, Atiku’s directive to the state executive and the Transition Team comes after all legal disputes were resolved, with key actors in the state signing binding agreements.
“I am particularly elated that we, in the Adamawa ADC family, are ending the year on a very positive note with the resolution of all extant issues. No house divided against itself can stand.”
“To this end, I encourage both the Adamawa exco led by Shehu and the Dasin Transition Team to work together in establishing the ADC as the preferred political party of choice in Adamawa State,” Atiku said.
“The Waziri Adamawa noted that in line with the directive of the Sen. David Mark led national executive of the ADC, there will be zero tolerance for all acts of indiscipline and insubordination,” the former Vice President said in the statement
