FCT, Abuja – The African Democratic Congress (ADC) said the court did not order the removal of Senator David Mark and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola as National Chairman and National Secretary of the party.
The ADC National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, said the Court refused the ex parte application brought by Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe and directed that the matter proceed with due process.
Abdullahi said the news circulating is fake and politically motivated
He dismissed the report in a statement issued via his X handle @BolajiADC on Thursday, September 11, 2025.
“Contrary to some misleading publications, the court did not issue any order restraining Senator David Mark and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola from functioning as the National Chairman and National Secretary of the ADC, respectively. Instead, the Honourable Court refused the ex parte application brought by Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe and directed that the matter proceed with due process.”
