The founding National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, Ralph Nwosu, has said that leaders of the party voluntarily resigned to allow former Senate President, David Mark, and ex-Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, to take over.
He recently revealed that the leaders handed over power to both men to reposition both the party and Nigeria.
Speaking at the unveiling of the ADC as the platform for the 2027 opposition coalition to challenge President Bola Tinubu’s administration, Nwosu shared that the leaders fully approve Mark as National Chairman and Aregbesola as the National Secretary of the party.
According to him, both Rauf Aregbesola and David Mark are known for their commitments to the growth of Nigeria, and it is clearly a new beginning for the party.
“We all decided to resign so that Mark, Aregbesola and others can lead us to the Villa.
We also approved Mark as National Chairman and Aregbesola as the National Secretary of the party.
When you look at the two of them and their commitment to this country, you’ll see that this is a new beginning. They will reposition the party and Nigeria,” he said.
He further noted that the opposition coalition is not about seeking power, and the main aim is to rejuvenate the country as quickly as possible.
Nwosu concluded by saying that ADC is ready to sacrifice anything for Nigeria, no matter what it takes in 2027.
“The ADC has always been about the rejuvenation of Nigeria and Africa. This journey started about 18 months back, and we have had over 12 NEC meetings.
When we were consulted, we said we have also been consulting because we are a party that believes in coalition.
A day like this shows that we are ready to sacrifice anything for Nigeria. We don’t have any doubt in the man, we all have decided to resign,” he added.
