ADC Chieftain Alleges Plot by APC to Hijack Party in Ebonyi, Vows Resistance

A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Ebonyi State, Comrade Emeka Chiefo, has alleged that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is making moves to infiltrate and hijack the ADC through known proxies.

Comrade Emeka, who is the former Chairman of the ADC in Ebonyi Central Zone and hails from Umunwagu Idembia ward in Ezza South Local Government Area, claimed that a former APC member, Jennifer Adibe, is being positioned by the APC to destabilize the ADC in the state.

“All the state and federal executives remain dissolved,” he stated. “The APC is trying everything possible to use Jennifer Adibe to hijack our party. Jennifer is an APC member. Umahi wants to use his former cronies like Jennifer, but we will resist them vehemently.”

He explained that the ADC’s interim leadership has already commenced efforts to curb the activities of individuals allegedly parading themselves as party officials across different states.

“The lists you saw circulating are all former executives,” he clarified.

Speaking about his aspiration to become the substantive chairman of the ADC in Ebonyi State, Chiefo outlined his vision to reposition the party and offer Nigerians a credible alternative.

“My plan for the party is very simple—to make the party accessible and acceptable to the majority of Ebonyians and Nigerians at large,” he said. “I am coming to bring a better alternative for Nigerians. As we can see, nothing is going on in Nigeria again. Inflation is at its peak, security is zero, people are dying, and other heinous activities are going on unabated.”

He expressed confidence that under the ADC, both at the state and national levels, Nigeria can return to the path of progress and development.

“With our party in both state and federal, we will return Nigeria to the Nigeria of our dreams,” he concluded.
