The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has strongly fired back at the presidency over a remark that the party is engaging in illegality, assuring the APC led government ADC is not lost.
ADC in a response by its spokesperson, Bolaji Abdullahi vis his đť•Ź handle used a metaphor to counter the criticism of the presidency, stating clearly that the party was not lost as suggested.
The coalition party maintained that it would continue to act within the bounds of the law and would not be deterred by political attacks.
“The hunter you speak of has no jurisdiction in this forest.
“ADC is not lost, we are simply not following unlawful whistles.
“Besides, don’t forget, the forest hides that which hunts the hunter,” the Party reminded the presidency.
Recall, Abdullahi, had, in a notice released early on Friday, said the party’s National Congress would proceed as planned despite INEC’s decision to delist the David Mark led EXCO.
Abdullahi also said the congress is expected to last from April 7th to 14th, 2026, with the screening of aspirants and then end with a national convention.
Reacting to the post via the comment section on Bolaji’s , the Special Adviser to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, had warned like INEC that ADC’s continued disregard for legal processes could have consequences.
Onanuga mockingly written: “Just continue your illegality, the lawless ADC. The dog that wants to get lost in the forest will ignore the hunter’s whistle”
