Mahmud Jega, a public affairs analyst, has cautioned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to exercise extreme caution due to the ongoing conflict in the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
According to reports, the ADC is experiencing an internal crisis that has resulted in the national secretary, Rauf Aregbesola, and former Senate President David Mark being de-recognized as the party’s national chairman.
During an interview on Friday on Arise Television’s “Prime Time,” Jega said that the crisis is being staged.
He claims that INEC is appearing to be involved in a plot to dismantle all opposition parties.
“The crisis in the ADC is being engineered,” he stated. INEC must use extreme caution.
“INEC is giving the impression that it is a component of the plan to dismantle all opposition parties.
“INEC sat on the ADA for two years; the opposition wanted it.” They have now relocated to ADC and are developing an alternative.
Festus Keyamo, Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, has charged that the David Mark faction of the ADC is using emotional blackmail instead of addressing the legal concerns in their internal dispute.
In a post on his 𝕏 account, he said that the faction was responsible for the current state of affairs.
In order to prevent future issues, the minister suggested that the ADC seek a more secure political option, a quicker court procedure, or a political compromise.
