ADC Denies Talks with PRP, Affirms Commitment to Legal Battle
African Democratic Congress (ADC) has dismissed reports claiming it was in talks with Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) ahead of a pending court judgment.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, in a statement issued on Monday in Abuja, described the claims as false.
Abdullahi stated that the coalition leadership was not engaged in any form of discussion or negotiation with any political party at the moment.
He emphasised that the party remained focused on challenging what it described as illegal actions taken against its leadership by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and other groups.
Abdullahi expressed ADC’s commitment to ensuring that those actions were upturned by the court.
“We believe that this is the only path to safeguarding the rule of law and ensuring that multiparty democracy survives in Nigeria,” he said.
The party’s spokesperson added that while ADC remained open to opposition alliances, it would not abandon its responsibilities or deviate from its commitment to democratic restoration.
“Therefore, any suggestion that we are considering abandoning the ADC is preemptive and speculative, and should be ignored,” he added.
Abdullahi, however, expressed confidence in the judiciary, urging the courts to resist any pressure to be complicit in undermining the country’s democracy. #ADC Denies Talks with PRP, Affirms Commitment to Legal Battle#
