Former African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Dumebi Kachikwu, has said that the party is not for sale, stressing that it would field a presidential candidate in next year’s general elections.
Kachikwu stated this on Wednesday in Abuja while speaking to newsmen.
He was reacting to the judgment that barred the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, from recognizing any congresses conducted by the David Mark-led leadership.
He described the nullification of conventions by the Federal High Court in Abuja as kangaroo congresses and conventions.
According to him, the move has been defeated following a recent court ruling on factional congresses.
He said that the court’s decision had vindicated his long-standing warning that some individuals were bent on hijacking the party for selfish interests.
He said, “The ADC is not for sale. Our party will field a presidential candidate in the 2027 general elections.
“Those who tried to hijack our party have been shown the way out through the same back door they came in.”
